Igea Virtus Holds Nocerina to a Goalless Draw: Raffaele’s Post-Match Assessment

The goalless draw against Nocerina left the Igea Virtus coach, Giuseppe Raffaele, somewhat dissatisfied. While acknowledging the hard-fought point earned in a challenging match, he expressed disappointment at his team’s inability to capitalize on scoring opportunities. “The point isn’t something to be discarded,” he admitted, “given the difficulty of this fixture. But, greater composure in key moments would have secured a victory.” This draw, however, allowed Igea Virtus to slightly close the gap on league leaders Troina, unexpectedly defeated at home by Gelbison. Raffaele emphasized a focus on their own performance, stating, “Our final league standing depends solely on our efforts, not the results of others. Fortunately, I have a squad of dedicated young players who consistently strive for excellence, building success game by game.” Meanwhile, Nocerina coach Massimo Morgia and his players maintained their media silence for a second consecutive week.
