Today the libero and captain of Emma Villas Siena, Federico Bonami, made some statements in the press conference: “On Sunday in game 1 Grottazzolina imposed a superior game to ours – were the words of Bonami, – our objective must now be to continue the series. We will play at home, in front of our fans. Before this match I feel emotional: last year we were relegated from the Super League and now, after an incredible journey in my opinion, we find ourselves playing our cards in this playoff final against the team that dominated the regular season.”
Captain Federico Bonami continues: “We need to create great energy from the first moment we enter the pitch and then play our game. In game 1 we lacked a good approach to the match, we weren’t able to express ourselves for what we are. This year every player put themselves at the service of the team and there was continuous and constant growth on the part of the group. In these playoffs we managed to get the better of high-quality teams like Brescia and Porto Viro, so I believe that the journey we have made so far should be looked at with joy. Now we want to honor this game 2 and play this match to the best of our ability to go to game 3.”
