Moments of joy at the ‘Menti’ on the occasion of Vicenza-Pergolettese, a match that ended 2-0 for the red and whites: between the 77th and 84th minutes, in fact, they returned to the pitch Ronaldo (who replaced Della Latta) e Franco Ferrari (replaced the scorer of the second goal, Morra), after the long injuries suffered (for Loco the rupture of the cruciate, for the midfielder also the rupture of the medial and lateral meniscus). The Argentine also came close to scoring (two shots on target in his first minute on the pitch). The midfielder spoke like this at the end of the match:
“We are happy, because the main thing was to be able to win and we succeeded. We are back, now little by little we will try to get back into shape and continue to help the team. How have these months been? It wasn’t easy at the beginning , especially with how last year ended. From the outside we have always seen a hard-working, serious team that continued to work well, as we did in the final six months of last season, a united group, now we have to continue like this. because it is still long, we will try to do our best every race.
Already had this injury in the past? I had already had the same injury, it had already happened to Ferrari too, so you know how to deal with many things and what to do. Then the fact that Franco was also there made it easier, because one gave strength to the other, on the days when one was perhaps down, there was the other who cheered you up.
The first thought when they called us to come in? We were somewhat prepared to enter, because during the week we understood that there was the possibility of playing, in midfield we were short. Mentally we were ready, but in those minutes a lot of things went through our minds. We thank the club who put us in a position to make an important recovery, the boys from the Mcare center who followed us and who treated us very well, the fans who made us feel their warmth even today that we entered and all the people who are close to us, from the team, to the staff to everyone, because they have all been important to us.
Free kicks? Costa today when I came in told me that I could kick everything myself (laughs, ed.). Pippo is important and kicks very well and we all try to help the team.”
