it will be a thrilling evening (8.30 pm) THE PROBABLE LINE-UPS

LISTENING «Football for us is not just a sporting fact, it is a social fact, which is why we will do everything to ensure that the beautiful fairy tale continues». These were the words that Costantino Rozzi often uttered to make it clear how important salvation was for his Ascoli team. Words that are always current, which leave no room for other interpretations. Even with Rozzi, Ascoli had to fight many times to maintain the category both in Serie B and in Serie A, and they were real battles, regardless of the result on the pitch, the Juventus team of the time never lacked the Piceno spirit to be able to escape from dangerous situations.

You need the right spirit

This is what is being asked this evening of Massimo Carrera’s boys who have not known a character like Costantino Rozzi, have not known his charisma but upon entering the Del Duca they will have to perceive the meaning of those words of his, of everything that Ascoli represents for an entire people. That love for the black and white shirt that the boys will have to pour onto the field this evening together with their fans. All united towards a goal, unfortunately this time it does not depend only on Ascoli, but also on the results that will arrive from Piacenza where Feralpisalò is called to stop Ternana, to allow Ascoli to be able to play in the play outs and from Bari where Brescia will have to face the hosts. A championship, a future contained in 90 minutes hoping for good luck and the help of others.

Ascoli at a disadvantage

At the end of the matches one team will be relegated to Serie C and the other two will compete in the playouts. At the moment the Bianconeri are at a disadvantage, occupying the third to last position, they must win and hope that Ternana and Bari don’t do the same. There is no denying that the climate in the city is tense, there is a lot of tension among the fans mixed with anger and fear. Anger because all this could have been avoided with one more victory, fear because the team risks sinking into Serie C after nine years.

The fans’ procession

Before the match at 7pm The fans are asked to meet near the Aci station from where the procession will move towards the stadium, passing through the Rozzi bridge. Yesterday the area was covered with banners inviting everyone to come and start the procession. In the afternoon the team trained at Del Duca, where coach Massimo Carrera himself held the press conference. A final training session is scheduled for this morning where the coach will better evaluate some solutions before taking to the field at 8pm. 30. As far as the lineup is concerned, we can hypothesize that Carrera will send his most experienced men onto the field and therefore Ilja Nestorovski will be in attack with the young Jacopo Tarantino who could return to the bench, the other departments should remain unchanged compared to last Sunday. Matches like this can play nasty tricks, which is why we need people who have greater experience and also greater competitive technique.
