Coach Moretti after Openjobmetis Varese–Acqua Vitasnella Cantù:

“In the second half of the match, we made a horrendous mistake on court. The match, up to the interval, should have been won by 20 points but as soon as we relaxed, we made silly mistakes and we became confused before Cantù’s return, which could have made us ditch the match. We still have a long way to go yet. However, I must congratulate the boys, because it was a very important game for us—during the week, we were very tense. We are strongly regional and winning the derby is crucial for us. Our skill has been to transform emotion and passion into fighting spirit and adrenaline. Fans in this first round have been extraordinary and I hope that this victory will reward the public despite our limitations and mistakes in the early part of the season. January will be tough,” continued the coach, “we have to stay focused to the best our abilities because the ranking is still fresh and delicate. But I hope this is just the beginning of a successful year together.”
