    REPORT: One more roll of the dice for Mandorlini

    REPORT: One more roll of the dice for Mandorlini

    • CM.com staff, translated by Edo Dalmonte @edodalmonte
    Following another defeat for relegation strugglers Verona, it had been reported that manager Andrea Mandorlini is close to the sack.

    According to our sources, Mandorlini needs a positive result against Carpi (who are bottom with the same amount of points but an inferior goal difference) to keep his job.

    It's been a difficult year for Verona, who ended the 2014-2015 season with Serie A's fourth-worst defence, and began life in this campaign with an injury to star striker Luca Toni. Hellas have now lost the source of 42 goals in two seasons.

    This news follows denials from the club that their Matchday 8 tie with Udinese was a "last chance saloon".

    Though the scaligeri managed to tie that game 1-1, they've lost their following two games against Fiorentina and Sampdoria by a combined score of 6-1.
