Match conducted almost entirely by Fortitudo Bolognaalways ahead in the score, but in the end the Granata prevailed coach Diana than with the decisive free throws of JD Notae with 14 seconds left, they take home a hard-fought and very heavy victory with a score of 72-70 and take a 2-0 lead in the final series.
A very tight and intense match, tense and not at all spectacular, played very well by the Bolognese team despite the heavy absence of Pietro Aradori. Trapani for its part paid for the lack of fluidity in attack and the too many offensive rebounds granted to the guests.
Worth noting is the excellent performance of Notae (19 points), Alibegovic (17) and Marini (13) for Trapani.
Now we’re back on the field Friday in Bologna for game 3 and possibly Sunday for game 4, but at this point only a victory is enough for the Granata to conquer the A/1 series. The match, we remember, will also be broadcast live on Raisport.
