The basketball team fights, tries to come back, but in the end they have to give in to Udine: at PalaCarnera it ends 78-66 for the hosts, who win game 1. On Wednesday 1st May the series will move to the PalaMariotti for game-2, starting at 8pm. The match saw Delser Crich start better than the Bianconere, who however managed to stay in contact until they suffered Alice Gregori’s outburst, who placed three triples in an amen in the 11-0 break by the Friulians, for the first push of the match which was worth 29-16 with which the first period ended. In the second quarter the gap between the two teams is a rubber band between single and double digits, then the basketball team begins to gnaw on something, even managing to get to -3 (40-37). Udine, however, does not make any concessions and scores a second set, this time 7-0, which sends the teams to the long halftime at 47-37.
In the second half the La Spezia team tries to chase the Friulian team, but any attempt at rapprochement is promptly rejected by Delser Crich, who actually extends up to +18 with which the third quarter ends (68-50). In the final period the Bianconere tried to come back, reaching -10 with a triple from Guzzoni (73-63), but were unable to get any closer, with Udine managing their advantage. Game 1 ends 78-66. For basketball, four players in double figures: Favre with 16 points, followed by Baldassarre with 11, Colognesi and Templari with 10. Wednesday will be “win or go home” for the Ligurians, obliged to win to continue to hope and bring the series to “Pretty”.
