MIRARCHI: "GOOD POINT, WE CAN IMPROVE"

In the battle at "Felice Scandone," Pallanuoto Trieste secures a draw. In the third day of the men's Serie A1 championship, the team sponsored by Samer & Co. Shipping drew with CN Posillipo 8-8. "We obtained a valuable point - explains coach Maurizio Mirarchi - we could have achieved a full score, but we still move up in the standings. We also return home with good signs; I see great room for improvement in the players from week to week." "Congratulations to Posillipo, it is always very difficult to play on this field - adds general manager Andrea Brazzatti - perhaps we did not capitalize on our situations with a numerical advantage, creating a lot but finalizing little. The draw is not to be considered a negative result, considering the quality of the opponents."

The match. Draskovic opens the scoring after 5'30'' (1-0), Mattiello responds (1-1). Draskovic again, with a numerical advantage, puts Trieste back ahead (2-1), Mattiello scores the equalizer (2-2). Draskovic scores from the penalty spot (3-2), before Bertoli's goal: 3-3 after the first 8'. In the second half, Posillipo tries to take control of the match. Cuccovillo scores the first Neapolitan advantage (4-3), Rocchino extends to 5-3 on the counterattack. Draskovic, again from the penalty spot, keeps the alabardati close (5-4), Cuccovillo re-establishes the +2 with the extra man (6-4). With 6'' to go, Mladossich gives oxygen to his team: 6-5 at halftime.
Few goals in the third quarter. Only Cuccovillo scores for 7-5, 8 minutes from the final siren. In the fourth quarter, Pallanuoto Trieste starts strong. Draskovic and Mezzarobba from center-forward sign the alabardati break that equals 7-7. Saccoia puts the home team back in front (8-7), the alabardati do not give up, and captain Petronio from the post in numerical superiority seals the valuable and final 8-8.
