Everyone with bated breath. And so it will be until the final whistle tomorrow, with a careful eye also on the other results. It is almost useless to reiterate what Modena-Como (scheduled for 3pm) means and what is at stake. A match that could be worth promotion to Serie A with a match to spare. In the locker rooms and among the top management of the club the objective is clear but we work by keeping “our feet on the ground and with humility”, this is the concept forcefully reiterated by many.
And speaking of tomorrow’s delicate match, the away match of which was forbidden to Como fans for safety reasons, which is why the giant screens will be set up at Sinigaglia, the interim coach of Como Osian Roberts it started from the charge that comes from the supporters.
“Wednesday’s choreography was really special and I can imagine the work that went into preparing it – he said – I have always appreciated this type of fans, who give so much during the matches. Scoring two goals under the curve made everything even more spectacular.” Thus the coach expressed his esteem for the fans and the support they provide to the team, adding: “they are creating memorable moments for the new generations who perhaps see these scenes for the first time in Como”. Roberts then commented on the current state of the locker room and the plan for the Modena match.
“The mentality of the team remains the same – he explained – We know that we can go anywhere and win, but always with our feet on the ground, humility and respect for the opponent. We have a dressing room ready to sacrifice for the team and for this reason we are doing well – but we know very well that we have not achieved anything yet. We will go to Modena to try to win, always respecting the opponent and continuing to work.”
All available for the race in Emilia. He should also recover the bomber jacket Patrick Cutrone, out early against Cittadella due to a shoulder problem.
As for the scenarios. The calculations are quickly done. Como is second and has a four point lead over Venezia. A very high margin, with two days to go.
Already tomorrow – let it be said with all the superstitions involved – the Azzurri could celebrate their promotion. Safe with a victory in the away game in Modena. In case of a draw, however, we will have to see the result of Venezia, playing against Feralpi Salò, a team fighting not to be relegated.
In the event of a postponed verdict, everything moves to Friday 10th, with the matches taking place at 8.30pm. Como will host Cosenza at Sinigaglia, while Venezia will host Spezia.
