Match Report - A goalless draw for Coach Claudio Terzi's side on the "Ferdeghini" pitch against their Palermo counterparts. The game was balanced, with the Aquilotti being more dangerous throughout, but neither Di Giorgio nor Fontanarosa were able to capitalize on the chances created. Ferrazza's goal in the second half, following a short rebound from the Palermo goalkeeper on Tognoni's shot, was disallowed for a dubious offside call against the Spezia forward.
At the end of the match, Coach Claudio Terzi analyzed his team's performance: "We played a great match, with some regret for not having scored in the first half despite dominating the game. We only risked in a few counterattacks against a team that defended compactly. We were patient, moved the ball well, and looked for the right opportunity, but perhaps we should have been a bit more aggressive in the final 20 meters in the first half and more determined to create an opportunity to take the lead. In the second half, we improved even more, didn't risk anything on their counterattacks, whereas in the first half we did take some risks, though not excessive. We created many situations, but we need to be more decisive in the final 20 meters, looking for shots from outside and crowding the box more. We even managed to score, but the goal was ruled out for a non-existent offside. That goal would have put us ahead, and the game would have opened up. Then we had two more great chances: one with Di Giorgio, who was alone in front of the goalkeeper, and another with Ferrazza, which was similar, but we lacked that decisive spark. However, the players can’t blame themselves for anything. Just a month ago, we played a similar match against Cosenza, where we dominated but lost, even though we gave away more in the second half. Today, we were very good at not conceding anything to Palermo and creating many opportunities. Unfortunately, we couldn't break the deadlock, although as I said, the goal we scored was valid. Still, I am happy with everyone's performance, both those who started and those who came on. Now we face another week of work to prepare for the away game against Pescara in the best possible conditions".
