A bitter defeat, the one at the Mapei Stadium against Sassuolo, leaves a bad taste in the mouth Pierpaolo Bisoli and his Modena. Here’s what was highlighted by TuttoSassuoloNews.net. The Canaries, despite playing a vigorous match, especially in the first half, lost 2-0 against the Neroverdi, thanks to the saves of the opposing goalkeeper and a pinch of bad luck. “You have the game in your hands, the goalkeeper always works miracles with us, then you make a mistake and when you go down against these guys who have 4-5 out of class players you struggle”, declared the Modena coach at the end of the match. A lucid analysis, that of Bisoli, which perfectly captures the progress of the match: an orderly and proactive Modena in the first half, capable of reining in Sassuolo’s maneuver and making itself dangerous on several occasions, and an uphill recovery after the goal conceded, with the neroverdi good at closing the score by exploiting the spaces granted by the guests.
“It’s sad because the boys put their hearts into it,” added Bisoli, underlining the commitment made by his team. “The first half must have ended 0-0, but this season is like that because we are punished for the first mistake.” The coach then explained the strategy adopted in the first part of the match: “In the first 10 minutes we wanted to make him understand that we would do containment, then we did what we tried and with a module, I call it lame, we created density in the middle and their goalkeeper performed 4 miracles.”
