"Technique or physicality no longer count, Civitanovese will need a hunger for victory and a big hand from the fans". This is the thought of Renzo Morreale, who as a former player and current rossoblù fan speaks about Sunday's challenge against Recanatese (kick-off at 15 pm at the Polisportivo). "The rossoblù – he explains – have only one result, victory and the fans will have to be the added value. The controversies must be put aside, the future is Sunday". Morreale, who has also been a coach of various clubs in Eccellenza, looks at the possible tactical scenarios of the match. "The Giallorossi - he adds - are not safe yet, but the advantage in the standings allows them to arrive at the challenge more calmly. Therefore, the attitude of Civitanovese will have to move on the balance between hunger and attention: being forced to win, the rossoblù team will expose itself, but at the same time it will have to be careful because Recanatese could strike at any moment. The Rivieraschi must not interpret the match with the obsession of scoring goals. Then, if this does not come in the first part of the match, then they will have to dare". At home, Visciano and his companions have achieved only one victory in 16 rounds. "Probably - he analyses - away from home they were better playing waiting, taking advantage of the counterattacks. In their facility, however, they had to build the game and therefore had more difficulties". Thinking about their respective squads: "Padovani – Morreale reveals – is a player I would always want in the team, Passalacqua is a silent leader and a top-level footballer. Of course, Recanatese was built with other ambitions. I respect Raparo a lot, his absence will weigh heavily. Spagna is a former player who will experience the emotions of the match. Maybe he is not a goalscorer, but he fights until the end and his generosity makes the difference. In general, while it was known that Civitanovese would struggle more, Recanatese had started with other objectives and probably they did not expect to have to fight for salvation with two days to go. Furthermore, both teams have faced changes of coach and this may have influenced things. For Bugiardini, it is a great opportunity and, even if I do not know him personally, I wish him salvation. The Giallorossi club bet on Bilò and did well, I know that he is a young but very prepared coach". Meanwhile, the rossoblù club has announced a change in ticket prices: in the stands they will cost 5 euros. Francesco Rossetti
