Massese The moment of truth strikes against Cecina. The chase for the last place in the playoffs is difficult

We have come to the showdown. If until a few weeks ago the Massese was the master of her own destiny and coach Massimiliano Pisciotta used to repeat that everything depended solely on the results of his boys, now this is no longer the case. The black and whites will have to try to win the three remaining matches but with the awareness that this might no longer be enough to achieve the objective playoff. At the same time, Massese will also have to hope that someone up front stumbles and doesn't make a clean run. At the moment it's difficult to frame the race for the last place for the promotion play-offs perfectly because last Sunday, due to the weather alert, a crucial match was cancelled like Montespertoli-Castelnuovo Garfagnana which will be recovered only on Wednesday 26 March. The extent of Massese's remaining chances will depend greatly on the outcome of this challenge. Should the Garfagnana pull off a coup, the gap from fifth place would rise to 5 points and become prohibitive. In the event of a victory for Montespertoli, the points to recover would be 4, while with a draw, the best result for the Apuans, they would drop to 3.

While waiting to understand the size of the gap to be filled, the zebra team has no alternatives: today they have to beat the Sporting Cecina in the match scheduled at the Vitali stadium (14,30:7 p.m.). Vignali and his teammates will find themselves facing the third force in the tournament, which has XNUMX more points than them and has had one of the most consistent performances so far. Cecina was third at the halfway point and has maintained this position. In the second half of the season, the Livorno team has obtained more points away from home than at home.

The break of the championships of Series A and B could facilitate a greater influx of sportsmen in a challenge where the support of the public will be very important. It must be said, however, that after the incredible exodus of Massa fans to Florence on the occasion of the unfortunate final of the Italian Cup, the enthusiasm towards this team has cooled considerably and the number of attendances at the stadium has not gone beyond 200 for some time.
