L’allenatore torna nello stadio in cui è diventato un grande giocatore, alla ricerca della prima vittoria in casa del Parma
Parma-Torino is not a match like any other. It is not because the granata have a chance, for the first time this season, to get their third consecutive victory; it is not because winning would mean mortgaging salvation in a completely unofficial way and being able to hope for something greater; but above all, it is not for Paolo Vanoli, who returns to the stadium where he was able to establish himself the most as a player. Not for the first time, of course, but it always makes a certain sensation.
Vanoli, il ritorno al Tardini…
It will be the third return as coach to the Tardini for the Varese coach, who made it big in that stadium as a player. In fact, Parma is the second team with which he played the most in his career – 68 appearances in two seasons – but above all the one with which he did the best things. It is no coincidence that during his second year in Emilia, the current Granata coach also attracted the attention of the national team, with coach Dino Zoff calling him up several times for international campaigns. It was also with the Ducali that he won 3 of the 4 trophies of his entire career, and not trivial ones either: in just two years he raised to the sky a Uefa Cup, an Italian Cup and an Italian Super Cup.
…In cerca dei 3 punti
However, feelings and emotions will have room only until a moment before kickoff, because then there is a very important game to be won. Notably, so far Vanoli has never won in his old stadium as a coach (this time, however, will be his first as a guest coach in Serie A), and he wants to dispel this mini taboo on his third try.
