Monday at 7.30pm Palermo visits Sudtirol, who at the moment have one point more than the rosanero in the standings: the team of Dionysis they have 8 points after 6 games, the result of 2 wins, 2 draws and 2 defeats. The coach himself spoke in the press conference ahead of the match: “Against Sudtirol we will not only need a technical, tactical performance, but also a character performance. Otherwise you won’t win the matches” – his words collected by Ansa – “We have to work on continuity, going beyond the episode”.
Dionisi is referring to those who, when talking about Palermo, now focus especially on the 5-0 defeat suffered against Napoli: “We tend to focus more on the negative than on the positive. We cannot be satisfied, but we are at the beginning, the expectations are high. We are ambitious. We will have a difficult match against Napoli, but I challenge anyone, after 12 minutes, to concede two goals and then remain with ten men, against Napoli who are a superior team of being in Serie B and having a difficult path. Napoli has nothing to do with us at the moment. We are talking about Sudtirol, a more experienced team than us. We have a clear identity we are building.”
