Reggiana beat Palermo 2-1 at the “Barbera” thanks to the goals of Manolo Portanova and Rozzio. The first’s father spoke to the microphones of ilovepalermocalcio.com. Daniel Portanova he also spoke about the performance of his son and the team, also commenting on the championship Palermo and the brawl promotion in B series. Below are his statements:
“As a father, I am clearly happy for Manolo. Regardless of the goal, I’m happy when he plays as he knows how to do, also in light of what he’s been experiencing for three years now. He is someone who always works hard and offers one hundred percent for his team and seeing him express his best makes me happy. The goal scored was certainly a further positive note in his performance yesterday. Yesterday was a strange match. After a good start by Reggiana, Palermo, as a structured team, emerged and deservedly took the lead. The episode of Manolo’s free kick then changed the momentum of the match, giving the decisive injection of confidence from Nesta’s team. After the defeat against Cosenza, yesterday’s result was a very important one for Reggiana“.
“Palermo? I had the opportunity to witness the fans’ discontent, but in view of the play-offs, unity of purpose will be important. Palermo lost by conceding two great goals, now it will be important to find the path to tranquility again. Promotion race? Beyond Parma who competed in a separate tournament, there are battleships such as Como, Cremonese, Venezia and Palermo who will battle until the end. Catanzaro is perhaps less well equipped structurally, but it offers a great idea of football. In this sense it can be compared to Bologna. In the play-offs, one-off matches will be played and experience, in this sense, could make the difference.”
