St. Georgen's very last chance

There is still a small glimmer of hope for Harrasser and Co.. They can still score nine points in the three remaining games. At the moment that would be enough to secure a playout spot. However, the cards for “Jergina” are bad and so only a few in Pustertal believe that they will stay in the league.

Since January 30, 2013, when South Tyrol's only Serie D club won a three-pointer against Sant'Angelo, the Morini team has had one, apart from the match against Pro Sesto almost three weeks ago (1-1 draw). Defeat after defeat. And in the three remaining games they will face three strong teams, Seregno, Aurora and Castellana, who gave them nothing in the first half of the season.

And even if the “Jergina” returned to winning ways three rounds before the end and collected a total of nine points, remaining in Serie D would not be a certainty. They would have to hope that their neighbors in the table, Darfo Boario (15th), Pro Sesto (16th), Mezzocorona (17th) and Trento (18th) lose all three remaining games.

On Sunday the Puster village club will face twelfth-placed Seregno. Not an easy task, as the club from the province of Monza and Brianza has always scored at least one point in the last four games. The home side also want to live up to their role as favorites on Sunday and repeat their first-round win (3-1), while the “Jergina” are likely to be eager to make amends after the bitter derby defeats against Mezzocorona and Trento.

In addition to the suspended Gabriel Brugger and Alex Ziviani, St.Georgen will also be missing the injured Moritz Eisenstecken, Peter Mair and Stefan Rabensteiner. Seregno, on the other hand, will compete with the best line-up. After Seregno, Benjamin Althuber and Co. still have the matches against Aurora and Castellana on the program.

This is how they will play (“Stadio Comunale Ferruccio” in Seregno - Sunday, April 21, 2013, 15 p.m.):

Seregno (4-3-3): Maggioni, Buonanno, Viganò, Grassi, Favero, Demasi, Pedrocchi, Di Lauri, Giangaspero, Barbieri, Comi Coach: Aquilante

St. Georgen's very last chance

When coach Patrizio Morini's boys travel to Seregno on Sunday for the 36th matchday of Serie D, the moment of truth will come for them. From a purely mathematical point of view, they still have a chance of reaching the playout at the moment. However, only purely mathematically.
