Giorgione does not miss a beat: now the challenges for D

Esposito: «We are studying Portogruaro, a solid and experienced team, and Villafranca, with great individuality». Tuesday the draw for the triangular that is worth the promotion

CASTELFRANCO. On the eve of Mr. Esposito had made it clear: “The match against Scardovari is an opportunity for those who have played less to show if they are ready to be useful in the final triangular and put me in difficulty in making choices.”

And whoever took the field gave everything, winning the three points. Honor and pride, to the end. Positive note in addition: the goal of the advantage was scored by a class of 2004, the youngest on the pitch, Nicola Basso (on an assist from his colleague Dervishi). A race that in itself proved to be correct and enjoyable, up to the 90 ‘. After the 1 to 0 of the first fraction, the other goals arrived in the second. First Corradin’s lob to overtake Antonello and sign the equalizer, then the newfound home advantage with Musaraj sliding after a nice counterattack by Vranovci. At the half hour, then, the final 3 to 1, with Franco, good at finalizing the beautiful pass of Piazza. Additional note: at the end of the first half, a tribute from a small group of fans (Mario, Giuseppe, Maurizio and Mario) to captain Manuel Perosin, who was given a plaque with the words “To Perosin the captain”.

Beyond the news and the party, of course, the heads of Esposito’s men and the company are all projected to the challenges (round trip) with Portogruaro and Villafranca Veronese, to decide two of the three promoted to Serie D, while the loser will still have the chance of national play-offs. The first challenger? Everything will be decided in the draw set by the Federation for tomorrow. «We are studying both opponents and we have also worked during the week to get ready for the triangular, both from a technical and tactical point of view. However, continuing to work on us “underlines the Rossostellata guide,” Portogruaro is a solid, experienced team with outstanding individuality. Villafranca tries to create its own game and does so by exploiting the outstanding individualities at its disposal. What is certain is that it will be a fascinating triangular: a pity that one of the three has to stay out of the game for promotion ».

Giorgione is not complete, but Esposito – rather than absences – has to look to safeguard the owners and key players. «We hope to get to the games with all the players available available. This is also why this time we decided not to risk those who played the most, avoiding putting ourselves in difficulty on our own. This situation (the reference is to the descent on the field, yesterday, of many Juniors and a few owners, ndr) is obviously not the daughter of a little respect for the league, but a direct consequence of the fact that you play a whole season in two weeks, without yet knowing what your opponents will be. It’s a shame “adds Esposito,” I think the federation could have managed these final stages differently. We are used to doing things on time, planning and organizing: knowing in time if you will play the first match and where, or if you will be at rest, makes the difference. All the more so when a season is hard on its own, as it was – for everyone – that of this year ».

An observation, that of Esposito on the fast but above all indefinite rhythms of this season finale, which does not take away the awareness of his own means. “Our fundamental quality was the mentality, the team spirit, our fundamental principles and we will do everything because emerge once again ».
