At the end of the incredible match won against Venezia, Pio Esposito spoke this way to the post-race microphones: “I have never set myself any limits because of my age, I have always given my all, I have always given my all, unfortunately I have also gone through a bad football period lately, I have missed a few too many goals, I have suffered a lot of criticism, but I have never stopped working and we all deserved this achievement.
It has been a year that from the point of view of coolness has taught me a lot because maybe three months ago I would have missed that goal in the first half and then for the rest of the game I would have got down, instead today it was different and I understood I have to understand that there is still the whole game and I can't afford to let the team play with one less, today I gave my best especially in the second half and in fact finally the goal came.
In Spezia I had a great time, I like the city very much and I really wanted to; I would have been really sorry if it had gone wrong and if I had not been able to show who I really was and today, in a decisive moment, I think I showed it. Actually I think I always performed even if the goal didn't come, but I can still grow a lot on this.
Since the game with Cosenza at home ended, there hasn't been a moment when we haven't talked about tonight's game. “We care so much about the cause of La Spezia, we have lived it with our breath on our necks, I was looking forward to this night and couldn't wait to celebrate together with our public, because I know how much they suffered and deserved a great joy like today.
I always believed in it, we always played it with everyone. Like with Cremonese, which we lost but we played for it. Unfortunately at the beginning so many things went wrong, we had to downsize,. In Serie B you play with everyone.
If I have to think about the moment of my rebirth maybe I can say when I missed the goal at the last second with Reggiana, there I saw everything fall on me. But I got up again, that was my turning point mentally.
We did it, we deserved it.”
