Here are some statements from the Venezia coach Paolo Vanoli on the eve of the race:
How do you recover in so few days? What match do you expect against Catanzaro?
“You recover as always when there is a race every three days, there is certainly less time to prepare for the race, but with so few days to go the races prepare themselves. We have to think about the opponent, who was a revelation this year too, he played great football, congratulations to Vivarini. We know that another race of sacrifice will be needed, the heat can have an impact but it is there for us as well as for them, we must all be ready, aware of the importance of the race. I read that the stadium will be full, but these are the good games to play.”
Defection? How are the boys?
“Candela is out since he is disqualified, Modolo will return for Feralpi”.
The fight for second place is still open:
“The beauty of today is that the one with pressure is Como, we have none. The victory against Cremonese was important because we remain in the race and take another step towards third place if they are playoffs. We now only have to think about winning all three matches, all matches in Serie B are difficult, this is another important match for our journey. The matches against Lecco and Cremonese gave us an important boost, then the matches are never easy to win.”
Do you agree that Como has a slightly more favorable calendar?
“In B you never know what happens, it’s very balanced and that’s why it’s nice. In Serie A, however, the level is really there, the big team rarely makes mistakes with the small team, especially in the second round. In Serie B there is uncertainty until the end, you always fight for something, you always find a reason to fight for something. I saw us last year, when we saved ourselves we were already a few steps away from the playoff objective. Above equal, there are two teams fighting for second place but then even further down there is a lot of fighting. We and Como must be proud of what we are doing, first place now seems a bit obvious to me. We did well, Como made a leap in quality in January, we managed to keep the challenge open.” (source: tuttoveneziasport.it)
