It was the Scudetto final and – not even a week ago – it was the Italian Cup final in Genoa 2024. Furthermore, let’s talk about the top two forces in the championship. Three clues that provide very precise proof: TikiTaka Francavilla-Bitontolive from PalaPansini for the reversal of the field, will contain in 40 minutes the best that the regular season of the women’s Serie A can offer, before leaving room for the playoffs.
HERE TIKITAKA – The previous ones are all in favor of the lionesses, but Brenda Bettioli it doesn’t break down. “Bitonto, like Montesilvano with the way they are playing at the moment, has shown that they have something more. We knew that in any case an opponent built to win would come from the semi-final on the other side of the scoreboard, but we tried and we are happy with the experience in Liguria. We wanted to reach the final and we did it. This gives us confidence: if we could have played it again straight away, we would have taken the field without asking for a moment’s respite.” And here is the reply. “I don’t know if there was enough time to fine-tune everything, but it will be a further opportunity to understand what the Puglia team’s weak points could be and – who knows – prepare ourselves for another championship final on equal terms, if it’s our turn to win. privilege of being there. It is my greatest wish, also because I am in love with the Mameli anthem and I would like to be able to sing it once again. It charges me too much.” Now, however, the championship closes with Vanin ready to give full support. “If before we had to learn to live without her, now we will have to readjust to having her. But once the right balance has been achieved – concludes the captain – we will be able to complicate anyone’s life”.
HERE BITONTO – Italian Cup and title of best player, immediately a double joy for Joziane De Oliveira. “I am happy and feel proud of my team. By choosing Bitonto, I knew well what the seasonal objectives would be, but at the same time I was aware of what the difficulties of having to adapt to a new form of play would be, considering my characteristics as a goalkeeper: this role involves great difficulties and requires gain confidence in a short time, especially when it comes to replacing the world number 1 (Castagnaro, ndc). However – he continues – I embraced a club full of enthusiasm and capable of giving me everything I needed.” From Genoa to Giovinazzo, again against TikTika. “One of those matches that we all love to play, there will be no lack of competitive spirit: they will want the three points to secure second place, while we want another victory for our fans and to continue to grow as a team. It’s not a final, but that doesn’t make us take it any less seriously. What has our team had more to date? I don’t know what exactly is outside, but what we have here is a group of people full of passion for futsal. Additionally, there is a desire to generate a positive impact on the community through futsal. And this, for me, is much more important than the titles put on the bulletin board.”
