FOOTBALL C – Break ranks with Lucchese imminently: a matter of days, perhaps even hours. After all, the season has now said everything it had to say. Many, even too many, disappointments and few joys that can be counted with the classic dropper for Gorgone’s Rossoneri who finished in twelfth place and out of the playoffs, a clear improvement compared to a year ago.
The last corvèe at Del Conero, which after 44 minutes became superfluous if not useless given Pescara’s advantage in Fermo, could not have added anything to what had already been written in the previous eight months. A very disappointing season and the Lucchese managers also know this and are now called upon to plan, hopefully, a future less full of unknowns and a harbinger (perhaps) of some greater satisfaction. We will see and hopefully wait for the announcement of the new DS in the next few days. A first seasonal assessment can only be linked to the numbers, raw and cold but which count more than anything else. Eloquent and disappointing when compared to a year ago.
In fact, the ranking sees Lucchese finishing in twelfth place by virtue of the best ranking apart from Virtus Entella and Pineto (last year it was eighth) with 45 points (in 2023 it closed at 51 points) but above all with the clear feeling of a team always in limbo never able to take flight.
The championship was won with absolute merit and well in advance by the dominant Cesena who also played with great honesty and sportsmanship in the last few days. In the images of the success of the Romagna team (2-0) against Perugia, the placings of Torres, Carrarese and Perugia and of other teams geographically close to us such as Pontedera which once again goes to the playoffs must be highlighted. Olbia and Fermana are relegated to Serie D, punished by scissors. The only play-off for remaining in Serie C will be the all-Marche derby between Recanatese and Vis Pesaro which will have the advantage of the best placing and the return match to be played on the friendly pitch of Tonino Benelli. Not a little.
