A replacement is sought, Mauro Giorico is in pole position Biancocelesti penultimate, the hope is now the playout
SASSARI. Disaster after disaster, Sweet Milk is rolling quickly to the bottom and at this point the priority becomes to avoid direct relegation. Given the increasingly critical situation, the club has taken the decision it had always tried to avoid up to now: the exoneration of the coach. So Pierluigi Scotto is no longer the Biancocelesti coach, ten rounds from the end of the championship. The replacement will be made official in the next few days, but among the technicians contacted is Mauro Giorico, a veteran of the category, who last season had ferried Torres to safety.
The Sassari team, the protagonist of a season poor in satisfactions and full of troubles, will hardly escape the queue of the playouts to try to stay in Serie D but with the specter of Excellence increasingly looming even the chance of a play-off for salvation becomes a coveted goal. for a company and a team that had downsized their project but never expected to find themselves in free fall. The return of Scotto to the Sassari bench had been accompanied by great hopes and a lot of confidence, but things immediately got bad and went on worse. The last bad blow to the coach was given by the recovery on Saturday with Carbonia, which ended with yet another home thud: the now ex rear end overtook in the standings, leaving behind the Sassari, who fell to the penultimate place. Another hard blow for the biancocelesti as usual prisoners of the “vice” of leaving at least a time for rivals to wake up when unfortunately the damage is done. With the miners, the Sweet Milk, after having suffered two goals, did not give up or even demoralized, but the suffering in attack (always scored with a dropper) did not make it possible to remedy the double disadvantage, in the end only halved on a penalty. Sixteen points and 14 defeats in 24 games speak volumes about the difficulties of a championship that continues to flow on the edge of disappointment. And the many yields with the minimum difference, 8 of them, speak for themselves, describing the problems in the implementation phase. Opponents very often just need a goal to take away the 3 points and having the least prolific attack in the group (only 17 goals scored) even a defense that all in all holds up the impact is not enough to avoid defeat. Why has Sweet Milk plunged into a tunnel from which it cannot get out? This is the question of the year and no precise answers have yet been found. The coach tried them all, who with the exemption pays for all the lack of results and also the president Fresu tried to make himself heard but after some signs of rebirth with the external draw with New Florida and the victory on the field of Vis Artena. Two valuable results against teams of higher caliber, then the total darkness returned with 5 consecutive stops. The hope of reversing the course now rests in the change of the technician, because time passes and there are fewer and fewer games to play. The new coach will not have an easy task but with ten opportunities still available he can try to save the future in the category. There are now three direct clashes in a row on the calendar, with Monterotondo and Formia at home and with Lanusei away. Winning is vital, other setbacks will not be forgiven by a ranking that is already crying alarmingly.
