Four objectives in one mission. Cosenza is preparing for tomorrow afternoon’s challenge with the intent of giving an important boost. The Sila group is cohesive and has given proof of this with the team dinner on Thursday. The match against Sampdoria is full of meanings.
Abstinence. Finding victory is the first task of the formation of Massimiliano Alvini. The success against the Dorians is obviously essential because it would maintain the positive dynamics despite the sharp decline caused by the penalty that came before the match with Palermo. A blow that the Silani cannot afford the luxury of feeling psychologically. After the good signs of the “Barbera”, therefore, the Tuscan coach expects positive indications to continue working in a convincing manner on what has already been sown during the pre-season period and in this very first glimpse of B. The first and only success remains that of the first day against Cremonese. A little less than a month has passed since then and for this reason it is extremely important to update the number, crushing any mental waste that may arise.
Invincibility. Cosenza then has another chance. That is to keep the “Marulla” spotless. In the first two official outings they have obtained four points. After the victory obtained in the debut against the grigiorossi, the rossoblù have achieved a draw with Spezia, a match in which they have come much closer to the three points than their opponents.
Invincibility also means having the ability to keep your goal intact. A characteristic that Alvini’s group has shown to possess when they were engaged at home. Both with Cremonese and with the Bianconeri, in fact, Micai was not forced to collect balls between the meshes of the net. On the other hand, away from home, Cosenza has shown some more doubts. Against Mantova and Palermo, some cracks emerged that the coach from Fucecchio wants to fill.
Taboo. The Bruzia team must also break a curse with Sampdoria, against whom they have never won in the previous matches played up to this point. The worst score recorded against any opponent. In the five previous matches played on the banks of the Crati, the Cosenza team have only managed two draws (the unforgettable 4-4 in 2001) while they have been defeated on three occasions. The last one, on February 23rd when the Blucerchiati also stained the celebrations for the 110 years (1-2).
Classification. The last mission in the mission is to abandon the last place in the rankings to immediately shake off all pressure. The performance expressed so far is not worthy of twentieth position but the burden caused by the National Federal Court is of considerable weight. Leaving the bottom of the rankings would allow us to work without any kind of ghost on our shoulders. The traffic is still condensed and the possibility of quickly climbing the rankings is wide open.
