Folorunsho’s goal brings more than one point Pordenone looks to Como with confidence

The road to salvation is long, the gap in the standings from the direct opponents is not negligible but in the 90 minutes of Pisa, the first of Tedino, we saw what was missing in the previous outings

PORDENONE

The road to safety is still long, but better than this Pordenone could not have started with Bruno Tedino on the bench. The coach, in his third adventure among the neroverdi, upset the team and its attitude within a few days, going to catch an unexpected point on the field of leaders Pisa. In the 90 minutes of the Garibaldi Arena we saw what was missing in previous outings: a formation that tries to propose its own game and attacks the opponent “high”. This latter aspect appeals to President Mauro Lovisa. And this is where Folorunsho’s 1-1 goal was born.

In injury time, Pordenone strongly disturbed the start of the Nerazzurri’s action. Following this, Caracciolo passed the ball back towards Nicolas who, feeling pressured by the full speed arrival of “The Mask”, went into confusion, losing the ball and giving the neroverde player the opportunity to make the goal. likewise. All of this cannot be a coincidence: the attitude of Tedino’s eleven was different than in the past and was rewarded. A point has arrived that has made moral and, at the same time, has allowed everyone to dwell more on the positive aspects than on the negative ones (however that emerged during the 90 minutes: making no mistakes is impossible).

The new coach had asked his team to have more courage than usual. He was satisfied. Even stimulated and made stronger by new ideas, more inclined to enhance the possession phase, some players were protagonists and incisive: Petriccione, back on the field but in the role of mezzala, was more in the heart of the game, coming to touch more times the ball during the match; Pasa was able to dictate the timing and lend a hand to the back department, acting as a good low vertex screen in a three-way line; Folorunsho raced all over the place and he was seen starting the ball and chain for a progression while Tsadjout, in addition to doing the department alone, went to the conclusion several times. These are signs of a mentality that has changed. And thanks to this, the team not only won their first point away from home after three defeats: they conceded only one goal after having collected ten in the last three rounds.

The team can look forward to the Como match with great confidence, where it is now necessary to seek victory. Tedino and all of Pordenone need to accompany this growth with results: this is the only way to create that virtuous circle that would then allow us to reach the final goal, that is to move up the rankings. In the January market, many rivals will strengthen and, following this, as often happens, a new championship opens up. You have to get to that moment without missing the train that matters. You need to run, there is no alternative having only scored one point in the previous eight races, but with this spirit and with this type of game you can shorten the distance from those in front. –
