A bitter evening for Cagliari, the result of a season that was more than a failure.

In front of over seven hundred diehard fans, the rossoblùs fail to beat a team like Venezia ( LA CRONACA ) and return home with only one point, falling to hell together with Genoa and the lagoons themselves (THE REPORT CARDS ). The Salernitana almost does not believe it: she gets four goals from Udinese but is saved.

For the entire duration of the match at the Penzo, the Sardinians maneuvered with a very high defense line but were unable to find spaces . The worst epilogue for a fragile team, which had many opportunities to get back on top but threw them away one after the other: the playoff in La Spezia, but also Salerno three Sundays ago. Only one exploit (15 points in 8 games) allowed the Sardinians to stay in the game until yesterday.
The company has its fair share of faults since the construction of the squad in the summer and in the management of the bench : from dismissing Semplici after only three games, to keeping Mazzarri almost until the end.

AGOSTINI - Alessandro Agostini is heartbroken and cries ever since the referee Maresca, after seven minutes of injury time, gave the final whistle: a single goal would have been enough to save the hut.

The last few weeks for the Primavera coach have been a whirlwind, with president Giulini being called to the bench of his favorite team for the last three games. “ The biggest disappointment of my career? Absolutely yes . I am sorry and desperate for not having saved Cagliari. I can't forgive myself. I'm infinitely sorry, the responsibility is mine, I apologize to the fans, those who were here at Penzo and those at home ”.

GIULINI - President Tommaso Giulini also apologizes to the fans but looks beyond relegation : "It comes from afar and it is deserved, but we will start again with our heads held high".

“We tried, after the sale of Barella, in the centenary year, to improve our ambitions - he says -. And to take important players like Nandez, Rog, Godin and this year Keita. We have raised the salary a lot, but this strategy has not paid off and has led us after three years, after having already performed a miracle last year, to this very bitter conclusion. I can only apologize to the people who work for this wonderful club and to all our fans who have also come here in Venice in many ”.

There is no lack of controversy with the journalist Fabio Caressa about the rumors of the sale of the club: “They are falsehoods, arrived in a crucial week. I think that someone did not love us, starting with those who, first of all, infamous us about the sale of the club without verification ". The Sky reporter replied: "If you think that information is infamous to society, I will explain a lot of things about why it went wrong this year".
