Half a pass to safety for the women’s team in Serie A
A half pass for salvation and the consequent permanence in Serie A for women’s water polo. Game 1, played in Cosenza against Locatelli Genova, gave an important victory to the Olio di Calabria PGI led by president Francesco Manna. 16-15, the final result. Partial scores: 4-3, 2-3, 6-5, 4-4. Very intense match until the final seconds. Over 500 fans in the stands, with some too many nervousness among the athletes at the end of the match.
The coach, Francesco Fasanella, was satisfied and thanked the public for their very warm contribution. “We finally won and our mood changes. A very difficult match against a tough team, like us. Athletically we are fine, we will go to Genoa to play game 2 point by point and close our championship”, his words.
Staying in the top flight is possible: we need to think about winning game 2, Saturday evening in Genoa, with the precious advantage of the match we just won. The playout finals are played over three hypothetical matches. Several fans from Cosenza are expected to travel.
