MVP: Valerio Vermiglio
The holders of the competition Macerata, managed to repeat their feat and keep the Cup for one more year. Vermiglio and co defeated the in-form Cuneo in the final. Here are the post game quotes:
Valerio Vermiglio (Lube Banca Marche Macerata): “I wouldn’t say I was the best, the best was Macerata. I’m physically fine, but what made the difference is that we always kept our composure. This win doesn’t have anything to do with the league, but that makes us even more aware of our possibilities”.
Javier Gonzalez (Bre Banca Lannutti Cuneo): “We lost but we fought hard right until the last play. To be honest, Macerata played better than us. Now, we have to forget quickly about this defeat and get focused on the league. Next Sunday, we’ll already have a chance to take revenge as we face Macerata. Still, it hurts to lose”.
Mirko Corsano (Lube Banca Marche Macerata): “The Italian Cup has always been an important trophy, and it’s a great honour to win it. In such a game, most of the teams would have faded after a while, but we kept improving from start to finish, maintaining a positive attitude”.
Sebastian Swiderski (Lube Banca Marche Macerata): “We’ve worked really hard recently. This victory is really a great satisfaction because that rewards all the efforts made. This win belongs to every single one in the team”.
