Castellana Grotte came back from Molfetta with a 3-1 victory in its opening pre-season friendly game. Same game again on Wednesday, still in Molfetta’s Palapoli arena. This encounter puts face to face two coaches from the Apulia region. Di Pinto had coached Castellana in 2012 and won the Italian Cup A2 as well as promotion in the elite, while Pino Lorizio was Molfetta coach and went very close to promotion in 2011.
« I am satisfied with the attitude of the boys – said the Castellana head coach – They managed to stay in control even when they had to face difficult situations. However, we should not get carried away by the result because we still have a lot of work on, there are game situations we still need to sort out. We’ll need everyone to sacrifice ».
