Anger and regrets, with the verdict requiring a chase and the obligation to win in game 2 to put the match back on a draw. The Auditore returns from the trip to Florence with a suitcase full of disappointments, dictated by a score that penalizes the Crotone team beyond measure, defeated by an opponent of absolute caliber but also by a refereeing attitude which, especially in the first quarter of the match, has directed the match by suffocating the Pythagorean’s attempt, which started with a handicap due to the contract approach which in a short time allowed Florentia to fly with the score at the end of the match even at 6-1. But with the shadow of punitive adverse referee decisions for the Auditor, forced to chase. But the gap widened further in a goalless second half for Auditore and with Florence able to add to the spoils. But the people of Crotone never stopped fighting and believing, and even in the most difficult conditions there was a courageous and also interesting reaction, which saw Giacoppo and co re-emerge, shortening the margin by two points. However, the verdict was now compromised, and the last quarter only served to certify a victory that now pushes Florentia ahead in the partial final. The Auditore will now need to win at all costs to keep the duel alive while still dreaming of that A1 series which is now further away but still available. See you on Wednesday 5 June in the Olympic swimming pool. With the field factor ready to give further support to the Crotone players in the most important moment of the season. And about history.
