The Secolo XIX opens like this: “But what’s happening?”. Via Gilardino, at Genoa Vieira

“But what’s happening?” It is not only the question that all of Italy’s football players asked themselves yesterday following what happened at Genoa, but also one of the headlines on the front page of The 19th Century.

In the last few hours, more than a week after the last championship match and a few days before the next one, the rossoblù club surprisingly decided to sack Gilardino. In his place is Vieira, making his debut in Serie A as a coach.
