Vincenzo Italiano had called him the day before but Thijs Dallinga it doesn’t unlock. The Bologna striker, on the pitch yesterday from the first minute, did not leave his mark in the 0-0 draw against Benfica and is still without a goal in his adventure with the rossoblù. “Opportunity in the 9th minute: he thinks deferred – writes today’s edition of the Gazzetta dello Sport – Trubin is more alert. Second half: off-centre opportunity, save. He shoots, yes: but from 0-0…”. “He finds himself face to face with Trubin but – comments Tuttosport – he wraps himself up at the best moment, better in the 5th minute of the second half when he crosses well and finds the response from the Ukrainian, but he doesn’t feel much up front”.
“He wasted a great opportunity in the first half – analyzes the Corriere dello Sport on newsstands today – in the second half he constructed a close-range shot, but too close to be dangerous”. This is what TMW reports: “Italiano lines him up with the idea of unlocking him, but there doesn’t seem to be any progress from this point of view. On the contrary. In the first half he has only one opportunity but he falters and Trubin recovers. Another in the second half , but the Ukrainian goalkeeper saves without any particular problems.”
