"Como is now a major club in every sense of the word. Everyone's studying him, everyone knows how he moves. Despite this, they're having a hard time signing him."
So how do you beat them? "The same way Roma and Juventus were beaten. Meanwhile, we need to be obsessively careful with certain situations," Cagliari coach Fabio Pisacane stated in a press conference at the Crai Sport Center in Assemini ahead of tomorrow afternoon's match at Unipol Domus. "We know what our weapons are. We need to double and triple our efforts. We need to have a positive mindset that allows us, in crucial moments of the match, to turn the situation in our favor."
The Rossoblu coach is certainly not backing down and is moving beyond the emergency. None of the injured players have recovered, and even Mina, who was supposed to return after serving his suspension against Parma, will be unavailable due to muscle strain . "It's disappointing for Yerri, but we've prepared a game plan and are carrying it forward, confident that we can cause Como problems, as we did in the first leg."
Even though it will be a completely different match than the one played four months ago at the Sinigaglia Stadium (which ended 0-0), Pisacane himself is keen to point out: "We already knew what Como represented in this championship—their ideas, their intensity. Now, however, they have even more confidence. It's no coincidence that they're fifth in the standings and in the Coppa Italia semifinals. And Fabregas's merits are clear; Cesc is really doing a great job."
