“I am convinced that the pressure is there. Whatever there is in a challenge you must not push it away, but you must go through it. This team has won a lot and now in a week it finds itself ‘handling’ two defeats. It is a beautiful and demanding task to talk to the boys. We are not telling ourselves that everything is fine, but we are telling ourselves that every moment is something that puts you to the test. We have worked on certain aspects precisely in view of these moments and now these moments have arrived!” Angelo Lorenzetti, head coach of Sir Susa Vim Perugia
“Playing these semifinals is not easy. There is a lot of pressure both for the importance of what is at stake and for the level of play that must be expressed constantly. We are growing – with our attitude on the court, with the ability to stay attached to the match even in difficult moments. We keep these qualities and, above all, we try to bring them with us to the next challenge. We are convinced that we can go to Perugia and put everything we have on the court, convinced of our means. We will try to earn a place in the final.” Giampaolo Medei, head coach of Cucine Lube Civitanova
