In a respectable fight, we know, you have to know how to defend yourself, but also be able to hurt. The Bologna, for its part, has a rearguard that, undoubtedly, knows how to take hits and is able to counter them, always suffering minimal damage. In fact, it is enough to take a look at the numbers to understand how the rossoblù are the second best defense in the championship (27 goals conceded), on a par with the Juventusbehind only theInter (19 goals conceded).
Since the beginning of the season only theUdinese (December 30) managed to score three goals in a single match against the boys of Motta. As for the other teams, only Inter, Florentine, Cagliari, Sassuolo And Milan (the latter in both matches) managed to find their way twice to put the ball in the rossoblù net. While, indeed, it is Verona That Monza, Empoli And Turin they didn’t score either in the first round or in the second half. The Neapolitans, who also left Dall’Ara with a 0-0 score, are eagerly awaiting Thiago and his at Maradona.
On the other hand, offensive operations don’t seem to be going any better and the rossoblù snipers, lately, seem to have lost their aim. This is because, looking at the rankings, the Bologna, with 49 goals scored, has the seventh attack in the championship in terms of finishes. Indeed, among the top 9 teams, in addition to the rossoblù, only Juventus And Lazio they haven’t reached 50 goals yet.
In all of this, the last few matches have absolutely not helped. Removing, in this respect, the great performances against Salernitana And Rome (both beaten with 3 goals scored), there have now been 8 days in which the attack seems to be running out of ammunition. Both against theInter that against the FrosinoneThe Monza and, finally, Torino did not receive any goals, while with Empoli and Udinese only one each (Fabbian with time expired and Saele on a free kick). Certainly Thiago he understood that some components need to be oiled, to avoid the risk of this impeccable machine losing too much speed at a time when it should be running more.
