Meanwhile, this morning in Parma, Viadana led by coach Pavan will be able to train behind closed doors and test the “Lanfranchi” pitch. «We are proud of what we have done during the season, bringing Viadana back to competing for the title after many years – says the coach – re-affirming the deep bond that has always linked the team to the city.
