First direct comparison today by coaches for Vincenzo Italiano And Fabio Pecchia. Two midfielders who found their way to the bench at the end of their playing careers.
2020/21 season, Spezia’s first historic season in Serie A. It was there that Italiano had the opportunity to compete against Parma. Well, those two matches both ended the same way: a 2-2 draw. Those were two very special matches, because in the first leg Parma found themselves 2-0 down in the 31st minute and managed to come back to equalize in the 92nd minute thanks to Kucka’s penalty. Same trend but with reversed roles in the second leg: Parma double advantage and Gyasi’s brace needed to restore parity.
Two games also for Pecchia but against Bologna. And there were two defeats against the rossoblu for him. We’re talking about the 2017/18 season when he was in charge of Verona who were relegated to Serie B at the end of that championship (penultimate place).
