The third defeat in the last four games hurts more than the others. The two goals given to Sudtirol are among the reasons, but the inability to be truly incisive after the second deficit was worse: Catanzaro ended up in the trap of a determined, not irresistible opponent and the 2-1 in Bolzano marked by goals from Zedadka, Pittarello and Merkaj is the indicator of a period of tarnishment especially in the attacking phase. It can happen, but we need to go back to the old ones as soon as possible.
