Rim lost against Pass Roma in an important head-to-head clash, with the match characterized by tension from the start and referees not up to par. Pass Roma took over in the third quarter, pulling away by up to +15. Despite an attempted comeback in the fourth quarter, Rim failed to do so, with the final score 92-81 in favor of the home team. Although Rim’s run is now compromised, their great result as newly promoted teams so far must be underlined.
Although the initial objective was salvation, they managed to achieve it 6 days early, earning the Play-ins. The fans, who organized a beautiful choreography away from home with over 50 people present, were an important element, as was the work of GM Daniele De Stradis in creating a movement around the team. The play-in phase will end on Sunday 5 May, with Giorgio Russo’s team facing league leaders La Salle on their home pitch in Valcanneto.
The scores of the match were: 27-25, 27-22, 24-15, 14-19.
