TURIN – Tonight, kick-off at 8.30pm, the second semi-final of the B playoffs, Cremonese-Catanzaro, will be played. Yesterday, in the first match, Venezia beat Palermo 2-1 with the lagoon residents waiting to know which team they will face in the playoff finals, scheduled for Thursday 30 May and Sunday 2 June, Republic Day. I will play the first match at home, the winner of tonight’s match and at the Zini it promises to be a balanced match, like the first leg. At Ceravolo, last Tuesday, it ended 2-2, with many regrets for the Calabrians who, after going two goals down, were producing themselves in overtaking, if only in injury time, Donnarumma hit a sensational post. If it had been a goal, it would have been an almost legendary feat, which would have allowed Catanzaro to face the match in Cremona with two results out of three. So instead, the home team will only need to repeat the draw from the first leg to reach the final. From the indications received from the first leg, the solidity of Stroppa’s team emerged above all, the Lombards usually collect just behind, but despite the two goals conceded against Ceravolo, they maintain a good compactness on the pitch, the result of that solid 3- 5-2 on which the Grigiorossi coach often knows how to introduce interesting variations, even during construction, thanks to a staff that offers him a wide choice. Last but not least, the captain, Ciofani, author of a splendid header in the first leg, a goal from a center forward who has never been too used to, despite his advanced age, turns 39 on 31 July. To beat Zini, and Catanzaro has the means to do so, Vivarini will above all have to take care of the defensive phase. It is known that the Calabrian Giallorossi often concede too much behind, giving away goals worth forgetting Oscars, as demonstrated by the 0-2 that was developing in the first leg of the Ceravolo match in the 50th minute. However, the Cremonese owned by Arvedi, the most powerful entrepreneur in Italian steel, has all it takes to reach the final. But, at the very least, they will have to sweat it out, because Catanzaro, if they are on a matchday, can beat any Serie B team, as they demonstrated when they went on to win at Parma, a gentle dominator of Serie B but who suffered a defeat at Tardini that day without extenuating circumstances (0-2), it was April 1st and it wasn’t the classic fish, but a success that instilled in Iemmello and his companions the awareness of being the possible surprise of the playoffs, but they approached with the difficult success against Brescia in the preliminary round, in which Catanzaro grabbed the equalizer in full injury time and only tamed the swallows in extra time. So tonight, almost anything can happen. Whoever goes to the final will find Venezia who, thanks to the 3rd place obtained in the championship, move up to Serie A even with two draws.
