Pino Sacripanti is not happy to the core

The qualification to the Final Eight of the Italian Cup did not satiate Virtus Bologna, which also tamed Alma Trieste in the first return leg.

Coach Sacripanti is beaming in commenting on his Black Vu’s success: “For us it was a crucial game, we didn’t hide in saying that we cared so much about this game. We had one of our best races.”

Not everything, however, went well…: “In the last minutes we got a little nervous, this should not happen and we will talk about it with the team. Until tomorrow morning we enjoy this victory, then we will think about Wednesday’s match that could deliver us the mathematical first place in the round.”

Sacripanti then talked about the team’s room for growth: “We are trying to get Cappelletti to play point guard a little more and use Pajola in the David role. In the middle of the area we definitely have more intensity with the arrival of Moreira, that is what we needed and he is doing what we needed him to do.”
