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.

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.

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.

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.
Match20 Feb 2027
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.

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 dugout22 Feb 2027
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 dugout22 Feb 2027
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.

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.
In brief
- Squad Filippo Bertolotti finally opens his account
- Market Kevin Bright linked with a move away
