Before Lazio-Juventus, Massimiliano Allegri praised Maurizio Sarri’s defensive skills, underlining how in the past this was already the greatest virtue of the coach who had taken over his legacy in black and white. A few days ago, Corriere dello Sport delved into this characteristic writing about a team with “less high, reckless pressing”. And, at the same time, “more balance and a defensive wall”.
Looking at the past, it must be said that we can really speak of a return to the origins. Because Sarri’s first experience in Serie A was with Empoli in 2014-15 and that team survived conceding only 52 goals. Napoli, who took him just the following year, had collected 2 more, finishing fifth.
