On the eve of the challenge against Crotone, valid for the second eliminatory round of the Coppa Italia Serie C 2024/2025, coach Toscano observes: “The boys have trained well, with intensity, concentration, and dedication; the mindset is the most important thing. We know that we won't be at our best as forecasted at the beginning of the season, because we have to deal with constraints and market dynamics that affect all the teams looking to rebuild compared to previous not so brilliant years. We hope that everything will be unblocked as soon as possible, but I must compliment the boys because they are working well. I know that the director and the vice president are working 24 hours a day to make the team more competitive than last year and to give more satisfaction to our fans, whom I thank for the trip to Chiavari: traveling so many kilometers is not for everyone and is not seen everywhere. I am starting to get to know the Catania audience, which is very attached to their colors and the city; we will work to make sure that they can recognize themselves in what the team will deliver. Our goal will be to give our all, try to win against anyone, and fight for every ball; sacrifice and determination must be our priorities. It will be the first match with the new players and a check before the start of the championship and our journey; we want to understand where we are in our preparation, it will be a challenging test against an important and prestigious team that aims to do well. I told the boys to seek performance in order to achieve results. Mindset and concentration make the difference in today's football, you must always know what to do and how to do it; mental endurance in the long run makes the difference.”
