Why It Matters
Cagliari achieved a victory against Frosinone in a match in which the crowd remembered Gigi Riva, who would have turned 82, with a chant and long applause in the 11th minute.
For Fabio Pisacane, victory and inevitable thought of Gigi Riva's birthday, who would have turned 82 today and was remembered by the public with a chorus and long applause in the 11th minute of the match. "This success on this day certainly takes on a particular meaning," said the Cagliari coach in the press room.
Grandu's debut? "I knew he would do well, it was the best note. It also applied to me as a player: you don't have to be tall, but be up to par. It was a good performance, we took Frosinone out of their comfort zone, especially with so many young players on the pitch. In the first five minutes they were setting it up as they wanted, but then we took it where we wanted to take it."
"Afterwards he started out wide - said Pisacane on the scorer of the decisive goal - then I brought him in. When he told me 'the goal is yours' I got excited. He must have more healthy selfishness, this could be the first of many goals". "Mendy, on the other hand, enjoyed the fact that he was out of the starting lineup in the last few games - underlined Pisacane - he played a great game. And he wasn't even at 100%. We're expecting Kevin Carlos, Sugamele's contribution is also good."
