The Olimpia Milano will go against Virtus Bologna in the Italy Super Cup match on September 28 at Italy. At 7:45 p.m. on Wednesday, Olimpia Milano and Virtus Bologna square off in the semifinals of the 2022 Italian Basketball Supercup (UK time). This game will take place after the other semifinal contest between Derthona Basket and Dinamo Sassari, with the victors going on to the championship game. Olimpia Milano has won this championship four times, with their most recent victory coming in 2020. Virtus Bologna is the current champion after taking home their second trophy last year at the expense of Wednesday’s rivals. The Milanese come to today’s match with the Scudetto sewn on the chest (the twenty-ninth in their history) after having snatched it from the bitter rivals of Emilia by winning the playoff final 4-2. Coach Ettore Messina will be able to count on several grafts arrived this summer such as Stefano Tonut, Nazareth Mitrou-Long, and Kevin Pangos: the goal is to reconfirm in Italy, but at the same time try to access the Euroleague Final Four only touched upon in the past season.
Last year’s final between these two teams resulted in Sergio Scariolo’s team winning the Casalecchio di Reno championship 90-84. Alessandro Pajola, a young point guard who won the competition’s MVP award, will be eager to repeat similar feats when he faces the formidable Milanese opponent later this week. The Black V has an interesting record when it comes to Italian Supercup final appearances (10). However, they have only won the yearly trophy twice, losing eight of their finals. Scariolo wants to change that very dismal figure and make Bologna’s brand synonymous with the Italian Supercup. In contrast, Olimpia Milano, which lost in the final the previous year, will be out for revenge.
