Samp, Sottil and the match behind closed doors: “It’s something surreal, but it shouldn’t be an alibi”

He will take the field this evening Sampdoria, who will face Juve Stabia within the friendly walls of ‘Ferraris’ newly promoted on the launching pad, in the match that will open the 8th day of the Serie B championship, a round that anticipates the second seasonal break for the national team; kick-off set for 8.30pm, in a stadium that will be almost surreal because, as is known, after the clashes between fans in the Italian Cup derby against Genoa, both the Sampdoria and the Rossoblu will have to play behind closed doors (a situation which, considering the two clubs, affects 47,498 season ticket holders).

Also on this topic, during the press conference held yesterday on the eve of the match, the Dorian technician Andrea Sottil. Here is his opinion on the matter: “I both trained and played as a footballer behind closed doors. It’s something surreal, it’s a bit like in quotation marks killing the show a bit because, especially in our home, the public is wonderful and enthralling Having said that, we can only take note of it. We have to make it an excuse and an alibi because we have known this for several days and this decision has been made performance and achieve an important result”.
