Easter Eve, but in Asseminello the focus is all on the challenge of Easter Monday, with Cagliari hosted by Pisa. Claudio Ranieri, however, addresses the first thought to Bobo Gori, who passed away in recent days: “His disappearance has left me very discouraged. I remember that, in '74, I marked him in a Roma-Cagliari match, my last match for the Giallorossi. I want to send my condolences to the family."

The coach then moves on to the match against Pisa, starting from the final against Sudtirol: “The boys are aware of having played a great game and of their strength. Now they have to continue to do well, accepting the results. The road is short and complicated and we will always have to give our best”.

Ranieri is ready: “Let's find a team that, like us, has been building to climb. There will be a full house, but we will have 700 fans following us. It will be a good game." Perhaps recalling a Pisa-Cagliari match in 1990: “ But that was the promotion match, while this one is important, but not decisive. That Pisa-Cagliari is a piece of history that cannot be rewritten, now we have to write a new one". Finally, on the penalty takers: who will cheer for a possible penalty? “Lapadula is at the top of the scoring charts, but he and Mancosu decide on the spot who should shoot. That's fine with me, as long as they're ready."
