The coach takes off his shirt after the basket

A curious incident occurred during the game between Legnano and Piacenza, part of the first round of the Serie B Nazionale. At the decisive moment of the game, with the score tied at 64-64, Legnano point guard Oboe hit the game-winning three-pointer, infuriating Piacenza coach Ghizzinardi amid the intense pressure of the match.

The Assigeco coach, furious after Oboe’s three-pointer, angrily ripped off his shirt on the sidelines, standing shirtless for a few seconds before putting it back on. The final score saw Legnano prevail 71–68.

Knights coach Piazza praised his team after the game: “Today we faced a team that I consider very strong—like so many others in this league—which will put up a tough fight every Sunday. We secured a very important victory, and I believe we have plenty of room for improvement.”

“We played a good game,” said Ghizzinardi. “We had an excellent first quarter, and we never gave up—we had the momentum—but in basketball, key moments make all the difference, and that three-pointer changed the course of the game.”
