An end-of-season “friendly” match. In the 34th and final round of Excellence, tomorrow (Sunday 28 April, 3pm) they will face Casalbordino and Torrese, tied in the standings with 43 points and already certain of direct salvation. Coach Roberto Cesario’s goal is to greet the season with the second consecutive home victory, after the decisive one in the direct clash against Celano. Sunday’s performance against Santegidiese didn’t hurt and in view of the final effort on the pitch there could be those who have had less playing time than their other teammates during the season.
The 2006 Ciccarelli looks for space between the posts, in the defensive quartet on the left, after the disqualification, Sciarretta will return with Ciafardini on the opposite side. In the central area Priori and Albanese. The midfield could be revolutionized with Bonacci together with Rozanc and Ricciardi. In the offensive trident, center forward Mateescu is the starter, with Finizio and Budano looking for goals next to him. The first scorer of 23 goals, without a goal for three rounds and overtaken in the scorers’ rankings by D’Egidio from Teramo (25). The 2004 team, stuck at 9, is hoping for the double digits it has been waiting for for 10 rounds.
Torrese, having reached 43 points in mid-February after an applause-filled first part of the second half of the season, turned off the engine. In the last 8 days there have been 6 defeats, collecting just 2 pointsOnce the goal was reached, Mr. Cristofari’s group also lost motivation since it was already impossible to reach the playoffs. The striker Dal Cason, if he takes the field, will look for his 20th goal of the season, with him Ruggieri arriving in December but scoring 8 goals. We don’t know if the goal festival will be broadcast but on the pitch Casalbordino will aim for victory to best archive a season full of satisfactions and, almost certainly, unrepeatable.
This is the probable eleven chosen by Mister Cesario: Ciccarelli, Ciafardini Priori Albanese Sciarretta, Rozanc Bonacci Ricciardi, Fizio Mateescu Budano.
