Genoa – Sampdoria makes a comeback two goals in the second half: against Modena at Marassi it ends 2-2. Gonzalez and Alvarez open, Palumbo equalizes, double on penalty. The playoffs remain five points away.
Andrea PirloSampdoria coach, analyzes the match like this: “We missed the condition a bit, Esposito arrived after a month of inactivity, Alvarez hadn't played for 6 months, we lost Piccini and Depaoli during the match, Leoni played in 2006 almost 2007, he and Darboe had their first training session yesterday. It's a shame not to have brought home the result, but these guys will have a future, it wasn't easy to enter a race like this, with 20,000 people, against a team that was coming off positive results. It's a shame that we didn't continue to have the intensity of the first half. However, I haven't looked at the ranking for a month, it doesn't matter to me whether we are below or above, the important thing is to have continuity of results and performances. Knowing that we can compete with everyone gives us confidence, especially considering the conditions in which we have played so far.”
Pirlo has found it again Esposito (“he did well after a month's absence, but he must improve his attitude, if he avoids protesting to the referee and challenging his opponents, he saves energy”) while he had to replace Piccini and Depaoli: “The first was dizzy after the blow to the eyebrow but he will be there in Pisa. Depaoli was in a bit of pain before the match, but he told me that it stopped in time, we will evaluate it but I hope there are no problems. We will lose Yepes, who is suspended, but by now I am used to losing 2-3 players per game.”
