Gioia confirmed its supremacy over Castellna Grotte in the southern derby. Diogo ad co showed great character against an improved Castellana side compared the first meeting between the two teams earlier this season. Indeed, as its opponent got back in the game at 2-1, it found the necessary resources to seal the deal and avoid a tie-break.
“It’s been a great derby – said coach Cannestracci – We played really well. Still, I’ll prefer my team when everyone is fully fit. We need to get the injured back to face the rest of the championship. We’ve been having injuries for weeks now and that does not allow us to train properly during the week. Still, despite the difficulties, we gave our best. Now, we have to prepare the Catania game as well as we can because it will certainly be an easy one”.
