After the Oristano test, all the attention goes to Saturday's match against Palermo at the Domus . All the injured players recovered, with the only absences of the disqualified Altare and the injured Capradossi and Falco. Ranieri restarts right from the embrace of the Oristano fans: « It's right and nice to go among our people . For me it's an emotion, because they make so many sacrifices to come and see us. It gives me an indescribable charge and these friendlies are the best way to thank them ».

Many are already thinking about the playoffs, but the coach blurts out: «Let's talk about Palermo. If I had to see that some player is not focused, I would take him off after 15 seconds . We have achieved the second objective, entry into the playoffs. For the first, however, or second place, we saw that not even the 67-69 points I had assumed would have been enough». On the subject of the rosanero: «They are a very technical team, we have to repeat a motivational performance. We will have the audience blowing behind our backs. We have to score six points and then we'll see."

Finally, the jab for a playoff date still in the balance for Reggina's possible appeal against the 7 penalty points: « It's a handicap that the Federation has to solve, it can't go on in the Italian way ».
