Altamura-Nardò: under the sign of its fans

Important match at the “Tonino D’Angelo” in Altamura where, faced with a top-ranking opponent such as Nardò, the home team tested their ambitions to fight for the top. It is also not a match in which the Granata from Salento can allow themselves further missteps given that, after the excellent last championship and the victory in the playoffs, despite starting with the ambition of doing better and directly winning their group, they found themselves chasing the leading group with some trouble. Losing today would mean finding yourself -10 behind Altamura which is certainly not a death sentence at this point of the season but could be precious points to be regretted later in the final count and the related sprint.

After the good draw in Andria, with another team eager and deserving of getting back on top quickly, the Leonessa di Puglia is called by its fans to dispel that veil of bitterness for that point which could have been something more with a pinch of luck . The choice of the red and white fans, dusting off the epic battle of Ponte Milvio, quotes the Roman emperor with the banner “In hoc signo vinces”. Only in this case it is not the Christian cross that is the symbol and the hope of victory, but the logos of the various groups that make up the Altamura supporter galaxy shown on double flags against the background of a beautiful scarf. The vocal support was also good, although it began to decline in the second half, influenced by the performance on the pitch which was far from what the fans in the stands had dreamed of.

There are a good number of people from Nereto, their support is excellent and begins with a compact and scenic entrance as is currently fashionable. It is always surprising to see such a following, positive not only in numbers but also from a qualitative point of view, in a city that ultimately only has just over 30,000 inhabitants and a considerable load of warnings, a legacy of recent years always with some initiative and over-the-top action.

The attendance was excellent and gathered in a very compact manner. They are the authors of a very positive and proactive support from the start despite their team not having started very well this year. In the end they gain further energy thanks to the strong performance of the Granata team on the pitch and are rewarded with three important points especially for morale, with the top of the table now only five points away.

Indifference between the two fans.
