Messina happy for success

“I want to congratulate Marco Legovich and his team right away, because they are athletic, well organized. It’s not easy to make a basket against them.” Olimpia Milano coach Ettore Messina was well impressed by the Giulians, who gave his team a hard time.

“At the fourth game in seven days we were good at playing with great concentration and attention on defense: we held them to eight points in the last quarter and 24 in the second half. The symbol of this match was Pippo Ricci who played a polished game of great sacrifice,” added the former national team coach.
