On the second day of the post-championship tournament at Under 19 level, organized by Pink Basket Torino, PFV won again, beating Libertas Moncalieri 53-33 at home.
Despite a somewhat subdued performance – as coach Anastasio underlined at the end of the match – she managed to get the better of Moncalieri’s peers at the end of a match played at a rather slow pace, typical of the end of the season.
The team was essentially unable to repeat the brilliant performance of Ivrea, provided a few days ago, but was able to impose itself with merit anyway.
However, the commitment made by the players on the pitch should be underlined and saved, after a start full of errors (11-4 at 10′): in fact the reaction was good, favored by the good performance of Chillini (16), with a series of three-point shots, and above all by fielding a better team defense, which allowed us to take the lead which was then maintained and increased until the end.
In fact, at half-way through the match, PFV led 19-11 and, in the usual “magical” third period, they went further ahead (36-23) to finish in style with a 20-point gap.
With this result, PFV Carmen Fiori ensures a better pairing in the final four on Sunday 26 May in Turin (first/fourth; second/third).
The next and final match of the qualifying phase will be played, again in Vercelli at the Pertini School gym in Corso Tanaro 3, on Thursday 23 May 2024 at 7.40 pm.
