Atalanta-Cesena

Moving the focus instead on the Italian championship and Serie A, the team led by Gian Piero Gasperini they narrowly won 1-0 on Cagliari on Saturday evening, remaining at the top of the table with 37 points, two more than Napoli.

At the end of the match the Orobic coach commented: “Carnesecchi literally saved us in the first half, allowing us to go to rest with a draw still. Then we positioned ourselves much better, occupying spaces better, playing with greater confidence. We took the lead with Zaniolo, who scored a good goal. If I have anything to complain about, it’s that in the final we could have been much more effective and suffered a little less. Luckily we have some warriors who have acquired the habit and confidence to defend this type of match.”

For his part, the Cesenahowever, he has already passed two rounds to be here, facing Hellas Verona first and then Pisa. The Romagna team first defeated the Venetian team 2-1 away, and then also prevailed at the Arena Garibaldi 1-0 against the Tuscan team, scoring with Celia (54′). Speaking instead of the cadet championship and Serie B, the formation of Michele Mignani is fresh from the 2-1 home win against Cosenza, remaining in the playoff zone with 25 points.

In the mixed zone the Cesena coach declared: “My boys played an excellent match in all aspects against a strong and difficult opponent to face because they don’t give you points of reference. In the first half we conceded little, taking the field behind them with quality: the team interpreted the match well, in the end they suffered in the right way. Shpendi’s injury? He’s not well, he’ll have some tests now: fingers crossed, let’s hope it’s nothing serious.”
