The difference in the match between Palermo and Juve Stabia was made by the performance of the two goalkeepers: the pink and black goalkeeper Sirigu saved everything, while the Stabia goalkeeper Thiam put all his effort into Le Douaron's goal.
And when this happens you can only lose. This is what happened today to the Wasps at the Barbera in Palermo, without their leader Pagliuca, who was disqualified but replaced on the bench by an equally tarantula Nazarene Tarantino.
Coming out of a game like this with your head held high certainly boosts morale but does not earn you points and from now on in the Serie B championship every point is important. It should be remembered to all Juve Stabia players that this team must first think about obtaining mathematical salvation and then think about having fun.
Because Thiam should be reminded that that ball thrown by Vasic from outside the area should be cleared out or towards the corner and not into the center of his defense. At that point it was child's play for Le Douaron to put the goal in the net that gave Palermo the victory.
Even if in the final push as well as especially in the first half Juve Stabia found a Sirigu in wall version who saved everything. No drama for Juve Stabia who sees themselves joined in fifth place by Palermo but now they must immediately report starting from next Saturday's match at home against Carrarese.
