Nevio Orlandi can feel Reggina's belief in an extraordinary comeback growing with each game. “Now for four Finals!”
The Amaranto were doomed to the drop only a few weeks ago, but in the last three games have won away to Atalanta and Bologna with a 2-2 draw against Juventus.
“We have to immediately forget today's result and focus on the next four Finals,” he said after the 2-1 victory at the Dall'Ara.
“We believed in our safety before, so naturally that confidence has grown even more. We await tomorrow's results and all we can do is try to get as many points as possible.”
This was a head-to-head in the relegation battle and Reggina emerged with three points thanks to goals from Franco Brienza and Edgar Barreto, even though they sat back for most of the match.
“We ran a few risks, but the victory was deserved. It's no coincidence that many of Bologna's faults were matched by our virtues.
“I am satisfied with the performance and the balance shown by the side. We prepared the match this way, as we knew we had something more than our opponents on the counter.
“The lads deserve praise for their tactical intelligence and their heart.”
