Today there was also Finnish International Mikko Esko in training as Modena is preparing Sunday’s home game against Padova. “My ankle is getting better – said Esko – This is my first training session today, I’ll only do a part of it and tomorrow I should train regularly. I played three years for Padova, I have great memories, this was my first Italian team. They are in good shape, they just beat Verona 3-0 but we want this win at all cost. This was a difficult week, with injuries too. We lost and played poorly in Monza, then we had a tough game in the cup, and played an under par game in Piacenza. We have to find consistency, mentally and in our level of play”.
