Cagliari restarts from Spider-Man. The exoneration of Rolando Maran has been made official, the rossoblù club has chosen Walter Zenga to give the classic shock to an environment that in three months without victories has gone from the euphoria of the fourth place in the standings with a view to the Champions to the fear of being sucked into the fight for don't go back. All in the year of the centenary and 50 years from the historic championship of Gigi Riva's team, which will culminate with a big party on May 31 at the Sardinia Arena. President Tommaso Giulini certainly did not expect that suddenly Maran's toy (to which he had in the meantime extended his contract until 2022) would fall apart so loudly. Crisis of results and the rumors about the accident that happened to Pavoletti (who broke his meniscus again a month after returning, but not on the field but during an evening in a club with his teammates), have ruined the good climate that Cagliari was living.
And so, in the aftermath of the internal defeat with Roma - the seventh in the last 11 games - came the decision to exonerate Maran and entrust the team to Zenga, who will be joined by the manager of the Spring revelation, Max Canzi. Tomorrow morning the first training at Asseminello. "You made me feel at home. Thanks Cagliari", the short comment after Maran's exoneration, who arrived on the rossoblù bench a year and a half ago. Last season his Cagliari closed in 15th place after a complicated final. This year, until December, Cagliari had been the revelation of the championship, then the collapse. Now it's the turn of the globetrotter Zenga. He has trained in 8 different countries: the USA, Romania, Serbia, Turkey, the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, England and Italy. And now Sardinia, which had touched in the 2014/15 season, when Giulini called him after Zeman's exoneration, but Zenga preferred to stay in Dubai. He returns to Serie A after the experience of Crotone, and the unlucky parenthesis last season in Venice in B.
