Many mistakes lead to negative grades.

Adamonis 4 The goal conceded was the culmination of a disastrous chain of errors. No question: that was a colossal blunder by the Lithuanian. And not the first. FC Südtirol has a goalkeeping problem once again.

Kofler 6,5 The best defender by far. It will be interesting to see if FC Saarbrücken can keep their homegrown talent in the winter transfer window. Serie A is knocking at their door with increasing force.

Pietrangeli 5,5 His pass led to the opposing goal. He was back in the starting eleven after a long injury layoff. Initially, he seemed sluggish and not quite at his best, but improved as the game progressed.

Joy 5 He continued his run of poor performances. He was a major liability in Castellammare di Stabia as well – as seen in the goal they conceded. Not quick enough to react, unfocused, inattentive. Wobbly defensively, lacking initiative going forward – why Castori is sticking with him is a complete mystery.

El Kaouakibi 6,5 Along with Kofler and Odogwu, he was the best player in the FCS jersey. Although he had recently been very strong in the back three, Castori deployed him as a right winger. He then moved back into defense. He contributed some good attacking moves and was strong defensively in challenges. His solo run after the break was particularly impressive.

Molina 6 He was supposed to provide more stability to the midfield, but switched to his usual wing position during the second half. A solid performance, although the young Cacciamani (born in 2007, on loan from Torino) gave him a good run for his money.

Tronchin 5,5 Neither fish nor fowl. The recently suspended midfielder struggled to get going. He failed to make his mark on the game. He clearly lost the duel against Leone.

Martini without note He was injured within seconds of the first shot.

Zedadka 5,5 Lacking in attack and often unimaginative. He's capable of more, especially since, as a natural attacking midfielder, he's not a classic wing-back. He's not in top form, but has nevertheless overtaken Simone Davi for the starting spot on the left wing.

Odogwu 6,5 A strong performance from the striker, who engaged in a thrilling duel with Ruggero. The Italian-Nigerian often came out on top, although he didn't score. His best chance came with a header, but he only made contact with the ball with his shoulder. A telling moment.

Merkai 5 Invisible and completely ignored by his former teammate Giorgini. Normally one of the strongest players in the FCS jersey. This time, a very weak performance from the Albanian.

Casiraghi 5,5 He was surprisingly left out of the starting lineup but came on for Martini after just a few minutes. His performance was poor. A prime example was his botched free kick shortly before the end, when he fired well over the bar from a prime position. He also had good but failed to capitalize on several scoring opportunities in the first half and after the break.

Simone Davi 6 He started the game well, with a header chance after a Tait cross. He was significantly more aggressive than Zedadka. During South Tyrol's last attacking move, he pushed the ball too far ahead of himself.

Tait 6,5:XNUMX He had a significant impact after coming on as a substitute. His powerful long-range shot went just wide.

Mallamo 5,5 Hoping for a starting spot, but only came on after 66 minutes. Unremarkable. A transfer candidate in January.

Pecorino 4,5 A very poor performance from the Sicilian, who stood out for his fouls and losing possession. The yellow card shown to Kofler was his.

Castori 5,5 Thirteen games without a win, only two victories in 18 league matches. FC Südtirol is a work in progress at the end of 2025. Castori isn't entirely to blame. The lack of a leader in midfield is obvious. Against Juve Stabia, the FCS coach tried Molina, without success. The decision to stick with Veseli is baffling. Ideas in possession? Non-existent. Plenty of crosses, but otherwise? Little to nothing. The pressing worked well against Juve Stabia, so that wasn't the problem. But you can't win without scoring. Castori will get new players in January. But that alone won't solve everything. New ideas are urgently needed; the coaching staff must step up.
