Squad

A knee injury of the worst kind for Marcello Rossetti

21 days on the estimate, and a long, private, unglamorous year of a rehabilitation nobody watches. Bari lose a footballer; he loses considerably more than a season.

Match

Bari tear Sampdoria apart

Rarely has this fixture seen a display like it: 3‑0 against Sampdoria, and it could have been more.

Squad

A fracture rules Giuseppe Scarano out for 58 days

Bones knit. That is the one merciful thing about this injury and the reason Bari will talk about it more openly than they would about a knee. He will be back, and roughly when they say.

Player ratings

Matteo Della Morte scores twice — 8.42

Two goals and a mark of 8.42 to go with them. Strikers are judged on afternoons like this one and remembered for far fewer of them than people imagine.

Match

Bari refuse to drop out of the race

Position 3, 24 points, and the result everyone checks first is now theirs. The word is still not being said around the ground, which is how you know everyone is thinking it.

Squad

Tempers go at Bari

Antonino Gallo 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

Domagoj Bradarić falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

The terraces

Bari supporters have found a favourite in Jayden Addai

There is a particular warmth a ground reserves for a 23-year-old it feels ownership of. Jayden Addai has it now, and everything he does for the rest of his time here will be measured against the goodwill he was handed for free.

Player ratings

A masterclass from Jayden Addai

Marked 8.44 — 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.

In brief
