Player ratings

A defender's goal wins it for Alcione Milano — 7.12

1 for Filippo Bertolotti, marked 7.12, and a centre-half's name in the part of the report he normally only reaches by mistake. He will not be allowed to forget it in the dressing room for a month.

Match

Still nobody has beaten Alcione Milano

The unbeaten run reaches 8. Some of them were wins and some were escapes, but a side that refuses to lose is a side other dressing rooms talk about.

Match

Alcione Milano refuse to lose to Lecco

A point taken on 90 minutes is worth exactly one point and considerably more than that to a dressing room. This side does not stop, which is a reputation worth more than the result.

Squad

A falling-out at Alcione Milano

Daniele Ciappellano and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

Match

Alcione Milano and Lecco take a point apiece

It finished 2‑2, and it somehow always looked like it would. One of those afternoons where the table moves less than the tempers.

Player ratings

Nobody on the pitch touched Luca Zamparo

7.46, and no serious argument from anybody who was there. Alcione Milano had eleven men on the pitch and one of them decided how it went.

The dugout

No hiding place for Jacopo Lanzi

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Jacopo Lanzi, and the manager let it.

The dugout

Raffaele De Angelis on the point

“A point is a point and I will take it, but we should have had all three.” Raffaele De Angelis after the 2‑2 draw, and the sentence every manager in the country said at some stage this weekend.

Squad

Mattia Muroni has to sit this one out

A booking nobody needed, on a night the game was already won. Alcione Milano lose a player for the most avoidable reason there is.

The dugout

No hiding place for Filippo Pirola

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Filippo Pirola, and the manager let it.

Squad

Tempers go at Alcione Milano

Daniele Ciappellano was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Squad

“I want to play”: Jonathan Pitou speaks

“I respect the manager and I am not going to sit here and pretend I am happy.” It is the most common sentence in football and it has never once been the end of a story.

The dugout

Filippo Bertolotti has become a man the manager trusts

Nobody at Alcione Milano will say this on the record and the team sheets have been saying it for weeks. There is a small group in every squad who get picked when the fixture is difficult, and he has joined it.

Looking ahead

Samuele Parlati faces his old club

AlbinoLeffe next, and one man in the Alcione Milano dressing room knows their training ground better than his own. The reception will tell him what they thought of him.

Market

The Kevin Bright question follows Alcione Milano around

Every press conference now starts and ends the same way: with Kevin Bright’s future. The manager has run out of new ways to say nothing.
