PALM OF MAJORCA
Ubi Maior (ca), Cagliari terminated Another defeat for Semplici’s team in the international derby of the islands with Mallorca. The rossoblu lose yes, but only 1-0. And it is at least from the point of view of the score a small step forward compared to the half disaster of the first half with Augsburg. To decide, in the first half, Dani Rodriguez who highlighted one of the weaknesses of Cagliari at the beginning of the season: the defense.
Men counted behind. When Ceppitelli left, Altare entered. And Godin didn’t play. A week to work in view of Saturday’s match against Pisa, the first official engagement. But barring unlikely market reversals, this is the team. And it is clear that something more is needed. The formation deployed at the beginning by Semplici will in all probability be the eleven type. A 3-4-2-1 with Pereiro and Joao Pedro to mend the midfield and provide support to Strootman and Marin. And with Zappa and Dalbert ready to expand and sink on the flanks. All in embryo. Cagliari so-so in the first half. Semplici is asking the team to build the maneuver from below: sometimes things work, sometimes they don’t. I play discreet when the ball passes through Marin and Strootman, but in front Pavoletti fights a lot, but sees little. Joao Pedro tries to create links with the midfield, Pereiro can be seen at times. On the wings they help Zappa and Dalbert. Behind, however, there is some problem on the left side of the defense where Mboula comes out from all sides. The first time he appears all alone in front of Cragno and the goalkeeper remedies. The second dribbles half a defense and practically invents the action on his own which, after a very lucky beat and beat, allows Dani Rodriguez to put it inside.
For Cagliari there are some favorable situations, especially when the ball has flown away as before, but never any danger for the Spanish goal. Real game, though. So much so that Pavoletti also takes a yellow. A little better Cagliari in a celestial version in the second half, with Carboni close to equal. Then the changes: first solution, Deiola to help Strootman and Marin. (st.a.)
