Finally TRS Piacenza Water Polo 2018 succeeds in conquering the A2 and does so with a match that leaves no doubt about the result, demonstrating physical and technical superiority. Coach Afric starts the match by putting 6 outfield players in the water without the center position with the aim of pressing, taking away the initiative from the Genoese and entering the game in the right way. It wasn’t easy after last Wednesday’s defeat in Genoa where Aragno won 10-5 but the reaction was there and Piacenza transformed leaving only some doubts at the start given that after a minute and a half Aragno was leading 2 goals to 0 predict another day to forget. Afric changes the structure of the team by switching to the classic form used throughout the season and paying particular attention to the markings of the strong Cotella brothers and the game takes off, 5 goals from Piacenza and a brilliant game shift the balance towards TRS Piacenza Pallanuoto 2018 which at the end of the the match will have a favorable score in all 4 halves. Halfway through the third half a Genoese player was sent off for brutality and the resulting 4 minutes of superiority for Piacenza decreed the virtual end of the match. In the fourth half the Piacenza goalkeeper Bosi in turn was expelled from the bench when the two teams were waiting for the final whistle in the water and at that point the players, coaches, managers and public merged into a celebration which then continued with dinner and for the players in the disco. The result is historic for a small water polo reality like TRS Piacenza Pallanuoto 2018 where there continues to be a lack of a suitable facility to train and play matches and have a large audience. The intoxication of the promotion has already turned into a strategy for next year, the commitment will be onerous but the club is growing, the team expects the collaboration of the institutions.
