A defeat that hurts

This was meant to be a new beginning but instead Brescia conceded a defeat that really hurts in Castellana Grotte. The situation is now desperate: Bergamo only needs a tie-break loss at home against Montecchio Maggiore in a postponed game to get into the playoffs and leave Brescia behind. If this scenario occurs, Brescia’s last game on February 5 against Bergamo would become insignificant. Even if it was tied on point with Bergamo in the end, Bergamo would finish ahead thanks to its better number of wins.
