The big Bisoli show: “FCS like an Abarth A112”

“The transfer market is finally closed,” explained Bisoli when asked by the journalists present. “In the end I'm very satisfied - even though I was still tense the first few days.” Sports director Paolo Bravo had a lot to do in the winter. There are eight departures and seven new arrivals. “Celli and Fiordilino have already proven their class,” added Bisoli. Midfielder Fiordilino will only come off the bench after his starting eleven debut against Reggina on Saturday in Pisa (14.00 p.m.) because he is weakened by the flu.

What caught the eye in the last few days were the commitments of the two attackers Joaquin Larrivey and Moustapha Cisse : “Cisse gives us new options on offense. With his speed, he is someone who goes deep, similar to Rover. I have already trained Larrivey at Cagliari and Cosenza. He is a striker, but not a static one. He travels a lot and could also play with Odogwu in attack in the future,” explained the trainer from Emilia-Romagna.

Bisoli in top form Bisoli was also updated on his interview with the Journal of Sport addressed. In an interview in Thursday's edition, he compared his FC Südtirol with a legendary car from the 1970s, the "Abarth A112". Bisoli then had to smile. "That's correct. The Abarth A112 was small but powerful and maneuverable. He mastered every incline. Just like the FCS. We regularly compete against Porsches and Ferraris.” Bisoli was referring to the fact that the FCS, with its comparatively low budget, can stand up to the financially stronger clubs. “I know more about cars than football.” Pierpaolo Bisoli Bisoli came out as a big car lover: “The Abarth A112 is ideal for mountain roads with many obstacles. Series B is not a highway either. In this league, every game is dangerous and important. Some corners have to be taken in first gear.” He then added with a wink: “I know more about cars than football.”

Pisa similar to the FCS On Thursday afternoon the FCS traveled to Bologna, where the team will hold its final training session on Friday before continuing on to Pisa. However, the club from Tuscany has put together a remarkable series this year. With 14 games unbeaten in a row, Pisa had even surpassed FC Südtirol's mark (12 games without defeat).

Bisoli made his debut against Pisa in the first half of the season. Back then, the white-reds celebrated their first Serie B victory. “The team has changed completely since then. Luca D'Angelo is a similar coach to me. He is very pragmatic and always prepares his team ideally for the opponent. The team has quality anyway, otherwise they wouldn’t have almost been promoted last year.”
