Lunch-match with “heavy” points up for grabs today at the “Scida” where Crotone will face Salernitana of the former Cosmi.
«Crotone is playing for a chance in the rankings that they earned on the pitch – explained the rossoblù coach Emilio Longo – It will be a watershed because either they will put a step between fourth and fifth place or everything will be back in question».
Longo asks his team to face the match with the identity shown in recent weeks: «We will put into play everything we have always done: win duels, attack the opponent, recognizing our level but also the very high difficulty index of the match».
For Longo, Salernitana is almost an unknown: «The new coach can bring innovation both in training and in the module. They had a lot of games in a few days and we don’t know what they worked on. And when you don’t know how your opponents might play, you have to think about your own game flow and how to overcome difficulties. Salernitana is above us in terms of quality and budget, but we have to put our all into it.”
On the training front, Longo finds Gallo again after the disqualification: «I have less difficulty making choices than usual because I know I can make little mistakes. I have such availability from the guys that there really can’t be any mistakes in the training. Furthermore, the five changes will be fundamental. Whoever plays must demonstrate that they deserve it.”
