Squad

The knee: Romano Santoro out for 27 days

27 days on the announcement, and a year of quiet, unwatched rehabilitation behind it. Lumezzane lose a player for a season; he loses something harder to name.

Boardroom

Lumezzane close the window on a squad of their own making

12 in and 2 out, and no more changes for months. The manager has what he has, the supporters have their opinion of it, and the table will have the last word.

Transfer targets

Door shut on Edoardo Pieragnolo

Lumezzane asked and Sassuolo said no without discussing a figure. It is the least ambiguous answer in football and the one clubs most often come back to test.

Match

Mattia Iori sends Lumezzane past Arzignano

It finished 1‑0, and it was Mattia Iori’s afternoon: on the scoresheet when it mattered, and the reason the points belong to Lumezzane.

Player ratings

Mattia Rolando did the work nobody counts — 7.72

11 combined actions and 7.72. The job he did is the one that shows up as other people looking good, and the only reliable way to notice it is to watch what happens on the afternoons he is missing.

Player ratings

Mattia Iori in the eights

A performance of 8.20 does not come along often, and when it does the rest of the team becomes scenery. He was magnificent.

Transfer targets

Lumezzane ask about Alessandro Vogliacco

A loan enquiry to Cremonese: cover, or a look at somebody the club cannot afford to buy yet. Either way the answer will come back inside the week.

The dugout

The manager’s verdict

“I am not going to get carried away and I will not let them either. It was a good day. There will be harder ones.” Enrico Conte kept it short after the 1‑0 win, which is what managers do when they are happy.

Squad

Fabrizio Paghera moves up the pecking order

Nothing is announced when this happens and everybody knows. He is a bigger part of the plan at Lumezzane than he was a month ago, and the training ground worked that out before the team sheet said so.

In brief
