Yesterday morning, leaving the press room of the "Nespoli" after the presentation, Daniele Dessena let slip a "it will be tough" regarding Saturday's match against Virtus Entella, from which he arrived on loan until June.
Who better than him at Olbia knows the Ligurian side, with whom he played until January. And who, if not him, will be able to provide the coach Roberto Occhiuzzi with that extra tip to frame the opponent of the anticipation of the 8th return day of Serie C. Because to snatch points from the third in the class, unbeaten in seven races, we he will have to sweat and study a lot, in the hope that, pressed properly on his weak points, he can make that mistake at "Nespoli" to take advantage of in a challenge that promises to be very difficult.
Like leaders Reggiana and Cesena, Entella have so far lost only 4 games – 2 at home and 2 away – but all in the first leg. With 52 points in the standings, -6 behind the leaders Reggiana is still in the running for the final victory, and certainly won't want to slow down in Olbia. But it is equally true that Olbia is hungry for points, as much and perhaps more than Entella, and that after Fiorenzuola's success they are determined to give an encore to try and get out of the relegation zone as soon as possible.
"Entella is a strong team led by a good coach: we will have to take the field with the spirit and character that emerged against Fiorenzuola", said the Dessena line in the meantime. Which also given the reasons that led him to accept Olbia's proposal ("I was fine in Chiavari, but I had reached a point where I was no longer in a position to feel important as a player, and in this the director Tomaso Tatti has been able to strike the right chords", he revealed yesterday) he will be particularly keen on doing well on Saturday. And to decide - who knows -, on his home debut, in front of his new audience, the match, according to the harsh and often infallible law of the ex.
