"We passed the ball well against a very aggressive defense and as the minutes went by we passed the ball better and better – added the coach of the Red Shoes -. The’beginning è was a bit shy, also because’ for the third time we had to change set-up because of the problem suffered by Shields. Soì Hall è started in the quintet, the others had to change a bit’ role the rotations were different and this caused us some difficultiesà".
