In Verbania to immediately find three points. The Biellese, at 15, is preparing to play a complicated game for at least two aspects, one internal and the other external to the team. The internal one concerns the desire for revenge of the bianconeri, who last Sunday were stopped in their race in the 94th minute against one of the greats of the championship, while a lot of attention must be paid because of the “annoying” field, as defined by coach Alberto Rizzo, and above all with a warm and good following in the stands. «We must keep in mind – says Rizzo – that Verbania beat Borgaro a few days before our match with the Turin players. Today we will have to be very careful: our quality opponents, I am thinking of the strikers Austoni and Cerutti, have a lot of them ».
Verbania did not start well due to corporate problems with the resignation of vice president and general manager, Andrea Fortis and Jacopo Anessi, and the abandonment of some players such as captain Andrea Piraccini. «We are going to strengthen the squad – says the president Giancarlo Pizzardi -. Our project is solid and we arrive at the beginning of this season with the merger with the Accademia Verbania for a single and strong youth sector, as demonstrated by our Under 20s who are doing well in the first team ». A crisis that saw Mr. Luca Porcu bring out the best from his players and propose a football worthy of the category. «I’m only talking about things on the pitch – says the coach – and the confidence we show, even if we know that the team group is not yet defined. The guys are responding well beyond their limits and the success on the Borgaro demonstrates this compactness of the whole. Of course we don’t play offensive football as in my belief, but we know how to adapt by making a virtue of necessity ».
