Here we are. And we play it. The Under 16s Rossoneri are in the Final to win the Scudetto after having eliminated Monza (3-2 and 1-1), Empoli (6-1 and 2-5) and Sampdoria: on Sunday they won 4-1 at home thanks to a great restart, on Wednesday the away draw 1-1 to obtain a deserved qualification. Baldo’s team governed the return match well, managing the advantage from the first leg in the best possible way: Tartaglia’s goal in the initial phase released the amount of pressure left after the work was now completed.
At least until now. Because now the final act is missing, the most important, stimulating one. It will be beautiful and at the same time difficult, an appointment set for Saturday 22nd at 8.00 pm at the Riviera delle Palme stadium in San Benedetto del Tronto: “It’s really nice to have arrived here – the words of Mister Baldo -, thanks to the commitment of the boys. I really believed in this group, we had the potential to be at the top and we reached an excellent level throughout the season. There were normal ups and downs, but the growth was evident and constant in terms of technique work and attitude”.
Waiting for us in the Marche region will be Atalanta, who surprisingly overcame Inter in the Semifinal (2-0 and 3-2) after Rome and Turin. The Rossoneri and the Bergamo players know each other very closely, having shared the championship journey and in particular having finished group B tied in second place: 54 points each, one victory each (for Milan 2-1 in Bergamo, for Atalanta 3-1 at the PUMA House of Football); Diavolo first in total goals scored (25) and Dea above in goals scored (72).
From dream to goal, in general the certificate – even before the verdict – to the positive collective and individual path. “They will be more rested than us, we will try to gather all the energy possible, physical and mental, and we will put our soul on the field. The opponent is tough, solid, is traveling at a very high pace: complicated match, but we believe in it”. Come on guys!
