Piacenza will play its third friendly game of the pre-season on Thursday 1 October at 3.30pm against Reggio Emilia, team coached by Cantagalli.

“We had carefully planned with coach Camperi the work to bring forward – said head coach Giuliani at the Expo in Milan as he’s away on International duty but constantly on the phone with his assistant – In this first period we have worked very hard on the physical side and I know that except for a bit of tiredness the boys have responded very well. Our goal this season will be to win every game we take part in. We’ll have to try to use the quality and experience of the players to make it hard for all our opponents”.
