From the pages of Gazzetta dello Sport, Sassuolo coach Fabio Grosso talks about the neroverde club and its season prospects.
In a lengthy interview with Gazzetta dello Sport, coach Fabio Grosso talks about the current moment of his Sassuolo: “We needed to recover our energies, now we need to restart. I have my antennas up to regain humility and the necessary competitive ferocity.
I didn’t expect to achieve these numbers. Considering the initial conditions, by confirming the group, we were able to build a very important path. Now we need to make it extraordinary, being ready for every challenge.”
Below is an excerpt from the interview with the neroverde coach.
Sassuolo, Fabio Grosso’s words
Looking back, do you think more about Pisa at -3 or Spezia at -8?
“In Serie B we always look at the third place: that’s our main reference.”
On January 24th, you will face Spezia. You haven’t won a direct clash yet: will that be the decisive match?
“It’s still too early to think about it. My focus is on the next match.”
Serie A?
“We are ambitious, but we want to reach Serie A without the anxiety of having to prove something.”
Serie B
Comeback and late equalizer against Pisa

Serie B continues to surprise in Sunday’s matches, with the standings changing once again, as Palermo finally returns to the playoff zone.
This year’s Serie B championship is probably one of the most exciting ever. Just looking at the standings, it’s clear that surprises are always on the agenda, and even a couple of consecutive positive results can catapult a team from the depths of the relegation zone to the playoff dream.
In today’s 3 PM matches, the most entertaining game was certainly between Spezia and Palermo. Dionisi’s men were on the brink of a victory away to the Ligurians, but they managed to salvage a point with a spectacular comeback in injury time thanks to goals from striker Esposito and former Palermo player Aurelio.
This reduces the gap for Cremonese from the Bianconeri, who return to winning ways against Sudtirol and erase, at least for the moment, the direct promotion dream for Luca D’Angelo’s team.
In the last match, Cesena also regains three points, winning away at Reggiana and reaching 33 points, thus climbing to eighth place in the standings, the last position useful for the playoffs.
Serie B, 3 PM Results
Reggiana-Cesena 0-1 (D. Saric 57′)
Cremonese-Sudtirol 3-1 (J. Vandeputte (C) 28′; S. Davi (S) 59′; M. De Luca (C) 76′, 90+2′)
Spezia-Palermo 2-2 (F. Ranocchia (P) 1′; M. Brunori (P) 72′; F. Esposito (S) 90+2′; G. Aurelio (S) 90+5′)
Current Standings
Waiting for Juve Stabia-Bari, the final match of the 25th round, the current standings are as follows:
Sassuolo 58; Pisa 53; Spezia 49; Cremonese 40; Catanzaro 36; Bari*, Juve Stabia*, Cesena 33; Palermo 31, Modena, Cittadella 30; Brescia 29; Reggiana, Sampdoria, Mantova 28; Carrarese 27; Salernitana, Sudtirol 25; Frosinone 22; Cosenza 21.

Serie B, 25th round: today the last three matches of the day in Serie B. The Spezia-Palermo stands out, while the Emiliano-Romagnolo derby will take place at the Mapei Stadium.
This afternoon completes the 25th round of Serie B, which has seen seven out of ten matches played between yesterday and Friday.
At the Picco in Spezia, the Aquilotti try to take advantage of Pisa‘s defeat, but they will face a Palermo team looking for consistency in the playoff race. For Luca D’Angelo’s men, winning would mean closing the gap to -2 from Inzaghi’s men.
A playoff-flavored derby, instead, at the Mapei Stadium, where Reggiana and Cesena will face off for three points that could lead to reaching the playoff zone.
Home game for Cremonese, who is closely following Spezia’s result, but meanwhile, they must beat Sudtirol to keep Catanzaro at bay, who remained unbeaten yesterday against Frosinone.
The day is completed by the match between Juve Stabia and Bari.
