SPICE
Gori 6 – Safe between the posts, he transmits calm to the defense. He is not called upon for extraordinary interventions, but manages high exits well.

Mateju 6 – Solid in the defensive phase, limits opponent incursions. Less proactive going forward, but his main task is to defend.

Wiśniewski 6.5 – Attentive performance, leads the defensive line with authority. A warning that does not tarnish a substantive test.

Bertola 6 – It does its job flawlessly, even if it doesn’t particularly shine. Helps keep a clean sheet.

Vignali 6 – He runs a lot on the wing, but lacks precision in crosses. Useful in the hedging phase.

Nagy 6.5 – Heart of the midfield, recovers balls and sets up the action. His presence is fundamental for the balance of the team.

Cassata 6 – Game of substance, but without high notes. He limits himself to his homework before leaving the field. From 81′ Candelari sv

Elijah 6 – Alternate good plays with moments of pause. From 81′ Reca sv

P. Esposito 7 – Match-winner with a decisive goal. Always in the thick of the game, he is ready at the right time. From 75′ Di Serio sv

Luca D’Angelo 6.5 – He sets up the game well, manages the substitutions intelligently and brings home three precious points.

REGGIANA

Meroni 6 – Defends with order, but suffers from the speed of opposing attackers. He doesn’t make serious mistakes.

Rozzio 6 – Leader of the defense, guides his experienced teammates. Not always flawless, but still effective.

Lucchesi 6 – Sufficient performance, he is ready in closings. It never pushes forward.

Marras 6 – He tries to push on the band, but he is contained well. It fails to create concrete dangers.

Reinhart 5.5 – A game of sacrifice, he dedicates himself more to the defensive phase than to the offensive one. More than one mistake that could have cost you dearly.

Ignacchiti 6 – Tries to give order to the midfield, but struggles to find spaces. From 68′ Sersanti 6 – He enters with determination, but is unable to change the momentum of the match.

Fontanarosa 6 – He tries hard, but fails to make an impact. From 68′ Vergara 5.5 – He tries to give liveliness, but is booked and fails to make a difference.

Portanova 6 – Moves well between the lines, but lacks precision in the final pass.

Okwonkwo 5.5 – Fails to make an impact, well controlled by the opposing defence. From 58′ Vido 6 – He tries to give a shock, but doesn’t find the winning spark. The post tells him no.

William Avenues 5.5 – The team plays with order, but lacks incisiveness in attack. The changes do not bring the desired effect. The crisis of results continues.
