Reggina continues its preparation for Sunday’s big match against Scafatese. From today the team will train behind closed doors at the Granillo. The sessions open to the public have made it clear that goalkeeper Miguel Martinez is training regularly with the group. Beyond the reconstructions, it now seems evident that the basis of his exclusions in recent times has been some bad feelings related to some choices. Pergolizzi made it clear. Nobody knows what will happen in the next few weeks, but among the hypotheses there is one that leads to a common sense solution.. At least as long as the player and Reggina are together. A path that sweeps away hypothetical “cases” and presences that could become cumbersome. Especially when, as happened in Barcelona, a young goalkeeper finds himself with a potentially decisive uncertainty.
The Spaniard is a top quality goalkeeper for the D and keeping him always in the pits is not the best prospect. It is certain that there will need to be some clarifications that can bring the goalkeeper back into full technical consideration. Just as it would be desirable for an over goalkeeper, who plays in a D team that aims to win, to also expect to be left out. Also because it will mean something if all the new teams that won their group last year played with an under goalkeeper. This is because the risk is accepted, in exchange for a greater ability to capitalize on the game with more expert players from midfield forward.
It is true that this year there are only three under 18s to always keep on the field and that Regginajust recently, discovered Gianfranco Giuliodori. A young man who is proving to be ready, in whom Pergolizzi immediately placed his trust. Probably also because he saw him last year with the L’Aquila jersey as an opponent of his Campobasso. The Argentine, who can play on the right and left, is an element that can become a deciding factor in the “space” issue for Martinez.
This is a player born in 2004, the same year as the first two goalkeepers (Lumia and Lazar). It is no coincidence that in the first championship match Reggina had four under players on the field (one more than the minimum). Also because Forciniti (2006) at the moment seems to be a fixed point and Reggina has no goalkeepers born in 2005. The only logic, with Giuliodori on the field, to use the under goalkeeper (unless it is a technical choice without anagraphic connotations or the desire to have more margin on changes) would be to use a 2006 class goalkeeper like Druetto between the posts.
Speaking of players born in 2006, yesterday Reggina made official the signing of Mamadou Ndoye. The Senegalese midfielder had been on trial for a few weeks. Raised in his homeland with the jersey of As Bambey, he will have the number 32 shirt. For Sunday’s match he is also counting on the support of the public.
It is hoped that on Friday the green light will arrive for the Curva Sud to be usable. The problem, as is known, concerned the fence that separates the sector from the construction site of the Municipal Swimming Pool. From today, advance sales are active for Sunday’s match, with season ticket holders who will be able to buy a ticket for a friend at the cost of last season.
