Venezia has exonerated the coach Paolo Zanetti.
On the eve of the match against Juventus, the lagoon management decided to relieve the manager who had brought Venezia to Serie A after an unexpected race.
The club played in a first round this year that led to a fight for salvation, while in the second round he only scored five points.
The team is now in last place in the standings, six points from the fourth from last (with one game less, the recovery against Salernitana).

The club made it known in a note that it wanted to "thank the coach for having written a magnificent page in the orange-green history with the promotion to Serie A last year".
With Zanetti "the second coach Alberto Bertolini, the assistant Nicola Beati and the trainer Fabio Trentin were also relieved of their duties, to whom the club would like to thank for his collaboration in these two seasons".
For President Duncan Niederauer: "As we have said in recent days, we all share the credit for last season's successes, and we all have to take responsibility for this season's failures. It is also clear that we must do our best to fight with all the our means - he notes - until the end of the season,
and do whatever we think is necessary to accomplish this miracle.
Our fans deserve nothing less ". Starting from these considerations," we asked Paolo Zanetti and his staff to take a step back for the rest of the season - observes the president -.
We've had a good and a bad time together, and we've built a good relationship.
These changes are normal in the world of football.
For the remaining five games, we asked Andrea Soncin to lead the team.
Andrea knows the club and the players very well, and in our opinion he has done a great job with the Primavera this season ". Soncin is aware" that this is a temporary solution, until the end of the season - continues the note -.
He also understands that we are asking him and the players to try and work a miracle.
We have nothing to lose and we will learn a lot about our team from the way we finish the season.
With this change, it is now up to the players to show that they are ready to do their part.
The responsibility for our performance this season is also theirs - concludes Niederauer - and how we behave from now until the end of the season is entirely up to them.
No alibi.
No excuses."
