Genoa has closed its list of players called up for the match against Venezia, confirming the presence of Ethan Meichtry and Lorenzo Colombo. The choice was made by coach Daniele De Rossi, who eliminated any doubts about the form of the two attackers. Meichtry, who had suffered a hip problem during the national break, returned to the field after having already started running during the week and integrating with the team. Colombo, formerly of Milan, has recovered from a sprained ankle suffered in the friendly match against Rapid in Bucharest, and was present in the group on Thursday, despite an intestinal virus that had put his availability into question.
The numerical reinforcement of the attack is a strong point for De Rossi, who can now count on four more players in addition to Osmajic, Vitinha, El Shaarawy and Robinho. The team is preparing to exploit these alternatives to face Wednesday's match against Juventus, where the attack remains one of the main concerns. Despite Colombo's recovery, Ehizibue has not yet returned to form and remains out of the program for the midweek match.
With the two new center forwards ready to play, Genoa can now focus on the offensive strategy for today's match at 3pm at "Ferraris". The objective is to exploit the freshness of the new arrivals and consolidate the attack line to obtain a positive result against Venezia. The team, with a new resource on the pitch, approaches the next match with greater confidence and tactical options.
