Venezia 1-0 Treviso

Fantastic result for the boys in the Coppa Italia! And what a way to win it by the sounds of things - Mattia Collauto grabbed the winner in the 89th minute. Not read a full match report yet but the scoreline tells its own story - Treviso were in Serie A last year (okay, they were the worst team by quite a distance) and we were in C2. Plus they are of course our local rivals, so it is a great result whatever way it is looked at!

Let's hope this good form can continue into the league, the make-up of which was finalised yesterday. There had been talk that we were going to be put with all the southern teams, meaning very long away trips, but fortunately they have decided to divide the leagues by geography, so we are with all the Tuscan teams like Lucchese and Pisa:
