FCS grades | A new stabilizer & a tactical trick

Poluzzi 7 Had his best scenes in the first half. Remained the winner twice against ex-Milan striker Patrick Cutrone, especially the second save was extremely strong. Exuded confidence and kept his box clean for the first time. In Series C this was common practice, in Series B it is a first. Berra 6,5 Against Pisa he helped out in central defense, this time he was used in his usual position as right full-back. Missed a huge chance to take the lead from close range before the break. Had some problems at the beginning when he had to play against the physically strong Alberto Cerri. As the game continued, he became more and more confident. Zaro 7 Started strong, had a few misfires towards the end of the first half, which fortunately had no consequences for FC Südtirol. After the break he was again an insurmountable obstacle for the opposing attackers. Even hit the post in the 53rd minute. Masiello 7 FCS coach Pierpaolo Bisoli said about Masiello on Friday that a player like that doesn't need to get used to it. The newcomer needed a few minutes to get up to speed. After 12 minutes, Cerri let him off. It should be the only time. After that he never lost a duel again. Gave stability to the entire defense. D'Orazio 6,5 He is without a doubt one of the most inconspicuous players in the FCS, also because he plays practically flawlessly. Defensively, he didn't let anything go wrong in Como, and you shouldn't expect a lot of offensive action from him. Made way for Crociata after 66 minutes because Bisoli had to increase the pressure against 10 Como players. De Col 6,5 He was supposed to leave the club in the summer, but now he was on the pitch for over 90 minutes in every game. Pippo De Col is one of the big winners at FCS in this first phase of the season. In Como he was called up by coach Bisoli on the right wing in midfield. He did his job properly and to the trainer's complete satisfaction. After Como was sent off, he returned to the back four. Belardinelli 7 He continues to improve from game to game. His performance once again stood out in the South Tyrolean midfield. The 21-year-old combines quality and quantity, game intelligence and dynamism. Jacopo Da Riva's foul against him led to the home team being sent off after the break. Nicolussi Caviglia 6 In the home game against Pisa he was on the bench for 90 minutes, but in Como he was allowed to start again. The Juventus talent showed strong scenes, but at times also acted too timidly and unsettled. He needs to be more consistent, his potential is undisputed. Unfolding it is one of the FCS’s challenges this season. Rover 6,5 The penalty king from the Pisa game came away empty-handed this time, but otherwise continued seamlessly from last week's strong performance. Bisoli played him on the left wing, the former Inter youth striker ran his heart out again, defended like a defender and stormed like an attacker. Zaro headed his cross onto the post. Matzocchi 7 What did he have to listen to after the missed penalty and the slapstick during the follow-up in Brescia! The goal in Como was like a relief for him, his header was as beautiful as it was important. He had previously missed the huge opportunity to take the South Tyrolean lead (23rd). Odogwu 7 Extremely valuable for the FCS at the moment – almost always playable and hard to separate from the ball. His appearances are no longer a surprise. The storm tank plowed through the opposing defense lines like a steamroller in Como. After 23 minutes, his irresistible solo run almost made it 1-0. And he also helped out at the back: in the 63rd minute he saved on the line after a Cerri header. Curto 6,5 Came on after 66 minutes for Andrea Masiello, who was booked, and didn't miss the former Atalanta defender. The fact that a player like Curto is only a substitute shows that the depth in the squad is now right. Crociata 6,5 He was expected to be in the starting line-up, but only came after Como was sent off. Showed his class straight away with a dream pass to Casiraghi (69th). Casiraghi 8 He hit the post, made it 1-0, took the penalty and converted it. All this in just under 24 minutes. You can't expect more. With this performance, the promotion hero demands more working time. Bisoli 8 Second game, second win, 6 points. Once again the FCS coach did everything right. This time strengthened the defense on the right side with 2 full-backs. The changes really hit home. With this man on the sidelines, even direct relegation is no longer a utopia, even if he never tires of emphasizing that he wants to lead the White-Reds to stay in the league at the last minute during relegation.
