I didn’t expect a full house for this match, it’s the best for those who do this job to be lucky enough to experience these emotions “.
The rosanero coach continues: “The club is doing things in a big way, to try to bring Palermo back to the levels of the past. We gave it our all, I always told the boys that we should bring the people back to the stadium by showing that we have a chance to win. We managed to make this happen, now we have to follow it up ”.

These emotions are gifts that football gives you. the boys have to enjoy this match with great serenity, without pressure, and having great self-esteem. If there is a full Barbera it is because the players have convinced the people that there is really a chance to win these playoffs “.
“Pelagotti and Massolo, two holders on goal”
Silvio Baldini talks about the line-up which, however, has not been revealed. “I have 23 players, all of them have trained well and are in good condition. Those who have played less may have some difficulties with the pace, but mentally they are already because in these two months they have all been involved and they are all ready to start from the beginning. Until the result is safe, I will rely on the players who up to now have given more guarantees ”.
And he concludes: “Pelagotti or Massolo, until tomorrow I will not say the formation, but I will try to focus on the players who have given me more guarantees. I feel that we will reach the end, but I know that I can count not only on the owners but on all the other guys. Pelagotti and Massolo are two owners, but I will make my choice based on how I will see them “.
