Venice, from sixth place in November to the top: a season of great emotions

After those with Crotone, Monza and Cremonese, Stroppa’s fourth masterpiece is colored orange-green. Exactly eleven months after being promoted with the Grigiorossi, Stroppa returns to Picco and signs Venezia’s immediate return to Serie A. It is the fourth climb from Serie B to the top flight for the Lombard coach, after the second place in Crotone and the playoff victories with the Brianza and Grigiorossi. His Venezia, on the other hand, bit into this Serie B without letting it go, resisting the chases of Monza and Frosinone despite the thrill of the penultimate day. Best attack with an average of two goals per game, a striker who is second in the scoring charts like Adorante, two stars like Yeboah and Doumbia, an all-round goalscorer in midfield (Busio) and a very solid defense, the second in the championship. Thus Venezia took over Serie A: here are ten snapshots of the ride that brings the lagoon players back to the top flight after just one year.
