You say Monza and you immediately think about the final of Italian Cup Serie C won on 29 June 1976 with a goal from Fortunato Loddi. You say Monza and you think even more about the historic one promotion of Lecce in A league. It was June 16, 1985 when the president’s team Jurlanoof the sports director Cataldo and the technician Fascettidrawing 1-1 at “Sada” with a goal from Albertino By Chiara, landed for the first time in the Olympus of Italian football. You say Monza and you still think about salvation conquered on 28 May 2023, less than a year ago, in the new “home” of the Brianza area, at the U-Power Stadium, thanks to the 1-0 victory obtained by the president’s team Sticchi Damianiof the manager of the technical area Raven and the coach Barons. A success designed by Lorenzo Columbus, on the pitch today wearing the Monza shirt, a circumstance which however will not prevent him from receiving the applause of his old fans who have never forgotten him. All this to underline the lucky connections with Monza who, hopefully, can give another great joy to the Lecce fans today too.
Given that the arithmetic will still have to wait, and there is no doubt about this, it is however undeniable that a positive result obtained this afternoon at Via del Mare against the team from Galliani And Palladino it would allow the Giallorossi to secure their second consecutive salvation a few rounds early. As is obvious, proclamations are banned at Lecce. «We are not safe yet, we lack the last effort», the president Sticchi Damiani and the coach Luca have repeated loudly in recent days Gotti. However, the reality is there for all to see and says that Lecce is truly one step away from realizing a dream. In fact, we must not forget that a salvation achieved in the Heel of Italy is worth as much as a championship won in Milan or Turin. So it’s worth being patient a little longer and forming a single block to try to overcome, all together, club, team and fans, the last curve that leads to the finish line of remaining in Serie A. In the meantime enjoying first place in the special ranking relating to the ratio between the amount of wages of the staff and the points collected so far in the championship: 2.39 points/salaries (source La Stampa).
Even today Mr. Gotti will have to deal with the numerous absences. Compared to the last official release it returns Almqvist while they will be missed Band, Ramadani, Kaba And Dermaku. Therefore the Albanian international did not make it and will be forced to miss the long-distance duel with the former Giallorossi player Pessina. The Lecce playmaker is the leader in the ranking of Serie A players with the most kilometers traveled in a match: Ramadani has an average of 12.098 kilometers per match in 30 matches, Pessina – who is third behind Ferguson – has averaged 12.098 kilometers in 32 matches an average 11,703 kilometers. The match will be directed by Santoro from Messina, kick-off at 3pm in a Via del Mare, needless to say, packed in all sectors. In the stands there will probably be an exceptional spectator, Samuel Umtiti. Yesterday the Frenchman published some shots of his old residence in Lecce on his Instagram profile, as if to say: “I’m here”. We’ll know in a few hours
