Monza and Padova both had to compose their line-up without their international players. At this game, Monza had the better 3-1.
“The result does not matter, it’s been a good test – said Valerio Baldovin – We played a very similar game to theirs, the difference is that we made mistakes typical of young players in the important moments. But that’s normal, especially considering the fact I made a lot of substitutions. We had ups and downs but I liked the attitude of the boys. Both Lazzarretto and Milan handled things pretty well, which is encouraging for such young players”.
