The formation of the Bar NIves
The regular season of the 2022/23 Opes championship ended with the dispute of 4 recoveries; moreover, 2 Play-ins were played to establish the final Play Off grids starting tonight, and the 4-team group, the Serie D Play Off between the last 2 classified in Serie C and the Single Group, has also begun.
In Serie A Group A the AM Circolo Encap goes up 4-0 and 5-1 against Bar Nives, who, caught on their pride, puts their heart and soul into it and overturns the score, ending up winning by a narrow margin, 8-7, a result that allows you to keep the 2nd place in the standings. For the AM Circolo Encap braces from Artioli, Lunghini and Zaccarelli and goal from Russo, that of the last lead for him, on 6-5; hat-tricks by Alushi and Mocanu and brace by Hincu, author of the first and last goal for Bar Nives. In the play-off that assigned the 3rd position, Wilson’s Pub wins, 3-2, over the Baracca di Guendalo, which thus closes in 5th position in the standings. Initial advantage for Baracca with Barbari, then two goals from Maestri and goals from Bosi for Wilson’s Pub 3-1; again by Barbari, on a free throw, the goal that had fueled the hope of Baracca.
In C series Taverna di Guendalo defeats Salvatonica United, already sure of 1st place, and closes the final standings in 3rd position: 3-0 at halftime, then 4-1, provisional comeback Salvatonica up to 3-4, but new extension on 7-3, before the definitive 7-4 for Taverna di Guendalo, hat-trick from Valentino and braces from Amoroso and Reitano, for Salvatonica braces from Oghittu and Marchiori, second goal from a penalty kick. La Taverna di Guendalo overtakes Koi Sushi which has to settle for 4th place. The Koi holds up to the 3-4 of the interval against Siever, second half one way for the final 9-3: very pokerissimo of the usual Tani and braces from Morandi and Simone Bellotti for Siever, for the Koi Sushi Filippo scores Rossi, Baraldi and again Filippo Rossi, a bad day for captain Guidetti, unusually dry and who also misses a penalty kick, moreover with the score already acquired.
Goes to New Team on Play-In against Virtus for participation in the Serie A Play Offs. After Bortolin’s goal in the restart, with a nice touch of fairness face to face with goalkeeper Villani for Virtus 1-0, and despite the numerous interventions by the goalkeeper Ventrella who manages to keep his team ahead, the New Team ends up prevailing, scores 3 times in the first half and then 2 times in the second half, in order with: Esposito in tap-in in front of goal after the rebound on Baroni’s shot, with Carravieri’s scavetto at the end of an insistent personal action, with Alessandro Cardi hitting the far post, with Cherroud from a corner kick scheme and finally again with Esposito with a nice diagonal in the corner. With the result acquired, Virtus shortens first with Cabassa’s scavetto on an assist from Benelle, the last one of his team to give up, who also hits a sensational post, and then at the last breath of the game with Govoni on a well-studied scheme and executed on the free kick two from the edge of the area.
The Serie B Play Offs will be played by Autoofficina Lodi, thanks to the 7-5 at the Hangar Birrerie in the other Play-In. To tell the truth, as long as captain Curati was able to remain on the field in perfect shape, the Hangar was ahead, first 2-0, then 3-1 and 4-2, then a whiplash at the start of the second half jeopardized the job and the Lodi car repair shop easily got the better of it with 5 goals in a row. For the Hangar shotguns by Sanità and precisely by Curati, for the Lodi car repair shop super poker by Marcello Bentivoglio.
In the first round of the group stage Serie D playoffs successes for Team Assacro and Panificio Porta Romana. Team Assacro on velvet against Rapid Minatant, 5-2 at halftime and 12-4 in the final with Pelati’s poker, De Gruttola’s hat-trick and Ranieri’s brace. Much more battled, however, the other meeting with the Porta Romana Bakery which goes on twice in the first half, first with Alberghini and then with Caselli, but is joined by Atletic XI respectively by Gennari and Poletti. In the second half, Dal Mas took care of directing the match with a valuable brace; in the final, Caselli’s second personal center and Caleffi’s penalty fixed the score on the final 5-3 for Panificio Porta Romana.
