The opponent of saturday: the Brescia

Il Rigamonti (lo stadio di Brescia), almeno vedendolo in tv, sembra un campo molto stretto per questo dalle ali è suggerito cross basso. Dovremo essere stereofonici anche stasera: 1) nella gestione del pallone, sia allargando il campo sulle ali, sia restringendo sui centrocampisti centrali, come una fisarmonica, per capire dove attaccare; 2) nella gestione dei momenti della partita, sapere quando correre (e dovremo correre tanto) e quando riposare (non molto tempo!).

Out-box shooting is highly recommended. It is useless to seek insertion in depth because they play very low.

They do pressing sporadically, but are especially dangerous with the breakaway. We are careful and prevent this danger. By building from below, we too can build dangerous counter-attacks.

Brescia plays with 4312 to take advantage of the tightness of the field. The left back (Martella or Semprini) is more offensive than Sabelli (right back). In the defensive phase they put themselves with Spalek as the right wing and Bjarnason as the left wing (international midfielder), forming a 442. The playmaker is Tonali. In attack they either seek the counterattack with the full backs or launch on Donnarumma who makes the no-touch for Torregrossa. The two strikers have no experience of international fields, but they are good, fast and especially Torregrossa very fit.

We must show concentration and determination, but above all intelligence. We can and must win. Daje Roma!
