Match

The wait goes on for Ospitaletto

4 without a win now, and the ground has developed the special quiet of a crowd that expects the worst. One scrappy 1-0 would cure most of it; that is the maddening part.

Squad

Tempers go at Ospitaletto

Fabian Tait 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

Marcello Possenti out for 38 days

The medical room confirms 38 days on the sidelines for Marcello Possenti, and a plan built around him now has to be rebuilt.

Player ratings

A masterclass from Gabriele Mondini

Marked 9.02 — the sort of number a correspondent writes down twice to be sure. Everything he tried came off, and what he did not try was not worth trying.

Squad

No hiding place for Gabriele Russi

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

Player ratings

Nobody could get near Luca Maffioletti

Successful dribbles: 17. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Match

Gabriele Mondini rescues a point for Ospitaletto

It needed Gabriele Mondini to find the net to bring anything home at all: 1‑1 against Union Brescia, and half the dressing room will call it a point won.

Player ratings

Marco Bertoli keeps on missing

Shots: 10, not one of them in. A centre forward is paid for one thing, and on this evidence he has forgotten which thing it is.

Market

Mattia Guarneri linked with a move away

The name of Mattia Guarneri keeps appearing in other people's back pages. Ospitaletto say nothing, which says plenty.

Squad

Michele Casali says Ospitaletto went back on their word

“I was told what my role would be, and I signed on that basis. It has not happened.” A grievance with a date attached is the hardest kind to settle.

Squad

Fabian Tait in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Ospitaletto this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

From our football correspondent Steady

Match

The cup run ends for Ospitaletto

0‑1 against Ternana, and the road stops here. Cup exits are quick deaths — no second leg, no next week, just the league from now until May.

Squad

A one-man rearguard from Carlo Bassorizzi

There were 7 saves in it, and at least three that had no business being saves at all. The ten outfield players owe him a drink and they know it.

Match

Marco Bertoli sends Ospitaletto past Lecco

It finished 2‑1, and it was Marco Bertoli’s afternoon: on the scoresheet when it mattered, and the reason the points belong to Ospitaletto.

Player ratings

Marco Bertoli in the eights

A performance of 8.84 does not come along often, and when it does the rest of the team becomes scenery. He was magnificent.

Squad

Fabian Tait gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

Player ratings

A masterclass from Ale Hernández

Marked 8.38 — the sort of number a correspondent writes down twice to be sure. Everything he tried came off, and what he did not try was not worth trying.

Player ratings

Gabriele Mondini runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 13. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.
