Livorno tie, Diamanti Scores a Beauty or ; It’s Déjà Vue Again !

By: Marco Stucazzo | December 13th, 2008
   

Hey a win would have tied us with fellow Tuscans Empoli for first place. But our eleventh tie of the season against Triestina still puts us 3rd !. But like Mr. Acori says : In a long tournament like this one consistency goes a long way. We now know Livorno are a hard team to beat but we need to stop dominating games and getting 1 point out of it. It’s time to string a run of ugly wins if we have to.

But no win can be ugly if Ale Diamanti continues pulling shots out of his ass. The kid can seriously kick it ! His left foot is surgical and he’s starting to develop in a more complete and well-rounded player of Serie A caliber. Diamanti Volleyed in a corner from the top of the box to give Livorno the lead on Saturday. You’ll see in the highlights but this kid is seriously starting to shine week in and week out. I feel like I’m writing the same thing week in a week out ; Draw with a nice Diamanti goal, the midfield was solid, Livorno dominated but they can’t seem to find that darned winning goal. Tavano and Danilevicius missed easy goals and Diamanti created many chances for himself and others and the defense was solid.

Pretty much the same story…a part from the fact that De Lucia is looking great in Serie B and Aleandro Rosi is gonna be a star someday. Slow and steady towards Serie A…

Check out the goals !

TRIESTINA 1-1 LIVORNO

TRIESTINA (4-4-2): Agazzi, Milani, Cottafava, Minelli, Rullo, Antonelli, Allegretti, Princivalli, Tabbiani (28′ st Gorgone), Testini, Della Rocca (14′ st Ardemagni). (1 Dei, 86 Cacciatore, 66 Lima, 44 Piangerelli, 10 Figoli). All. Maran.

LIVORNO (4-3-1-2): De Lucia, Rosi, Perticone, Miglionico, Bonetto, Pulzetti (29′ st Candreva), Loviso (41′ st Filippini), Bergvold, Diamanti, Tavano, Danilevicius (31′ st Laurito). (19 Mazzoni, 46 Rizza, 66 Galante, 22 Volpe). All. Acori.
