The Di Gregorio wall on the Pordenone road

The neroverdi, in difficulty during the construction phase, will find the former number 1 among the top of the category on their way

PORDENONE. On the road to Pordenone that has found the goal – and who would like to continue scoring – an old friend stands in the way and, above all, a very strong goalkeeper: Michele Di Gregorio.

In tomorrow’s match against Monza he will be defending the posts, who in the 2019-2020 season made his debut in Serie B and with the lizards proved to be the best extreme defender in the category. At the end of that tournament the player, born in 1997, moved to Brianza, where he is confirming to be a top player. Proof of this is, among other aspects, the penalty saved to Gucher del Pisa in the 93rd minute in the last game, even if he lost 2-1 by his team.

Finding an opponent of this value is not the best for the lizards of now, who beyond being released from the offensive point of view continue to struggle in the last sixteen meters. A statistic about it is interesting. So far they are the formation that has the lowest percentage of shots on target in all of Serie B: only 17% of the shots made end up in the opponent’s goal.

Too little, a figure to be improved already on Saturday, despite all the difficulties that will be encountered. Because Di Gregorio expresses all his strength right between the posts. In fact, during the year in Pordenone, he proved to be unsurpassed in many matches. Especially with Spezia, Empoli and Crotone at home, with his interventions, he was crucial to keep the clean sheet and win. THE clean sheet totaled between Friuli and Rocco, among other things, there were many, no less than eight, statistics that he is repeating in Monza: since last championship he has obtained 11 points. Only the Cittadella has done better.

The mission to which Massimo Rastelli’s team is expected is really demanding, but on the other hand, in order to win the first match in the league it has been called upon to overcome obstacles of this type. The goalkeeper of the Brianza will be one of the two ex to keep an eye on the match.

The other is Patrick Ciurria, who will meet his former teammates for the first time after the farewell gained in the previous transfer market. If the goalkeeper has played only one season among the green lizards, the “Fante”, born in 1995, wore the green and black jersey for four years (2017-2021), collecting 149 appearances as well as promotion from Lega Pro to Serie B.

Compared to Di Gregorio he is not going through a period of great form: although he served a few days ago the assist to Dany Mota in the match with Pisa, with the Brianza jersey he has not yet scored. The hope of Pordenone is that it will not unlock tomorrow.
