Speech by Tino La Vecchia (Catania fan, writer and commentator) during ‘Calcionate – Comments in Casa RossAzzurra’ in Globus Television. Below is an excerpt:
“Catania won an ugly, dirty and nasty game but the three points were necessary. No fear now because if Monopoli doesn’t win in Crotone, Catania would be enough even with a draw against Sorrento. Because once Turris and Monterosi compete against each other, if Turris wins it would leave Monterosi 12 points behind Catania. Perhaps Potenza could risk it as they will face Francavilla on the last day but I think the rankings behind there will change little.”
“Once mathematical salvation has been achieved, the playoffs will have to be played, with what hopes and prospects I don’t know given that Catania would be the only team of the 28 participants not to have reached the playoffs in the regular season. The playoffs will be another championship. Leaving aside heart and support, there are much stronger teams than Catania, for example I’m thinking of Vicenza and Perugia, but in a single match anything can happen. Sturaro should be recovered as he has played just 350 minutes since he came to Catania. And it would be important for Di Carmine to maintain his current form; There’s no question about the player but at the start of the season I was worried about his performance. Marsura is about to return to what made Venezia’s fortunes.”
