Goldaniga: Como 1907’s Defensive Warrior
During last Saturday’s home match against Venezia, Edoardo Goldaniga, central defender for Como 1907, once again proved to be a key figure in the Larian defense. The intense and hard-fought match saw Como take the lead through Jonathan Ikoné in the 49th minute, only for Venezia to equalize in the final minutes with a penalty.
Despite the 1-1 final score, Goldaniga played a crucial role in maintaining defensive solidity for most of the game. With his warrior-like spirit, he made key interventions at decisive moments, showing impeccable focus and a leader’s temperament. His contribution was evident not only in defense but also in the leadership he displayed, guiding the team with his experience and determination.
The Bianco Blu defender commented on the match: “There is great regret for not having won a game we could have closed earlier and for not managing to keep a clean sheet.”
Goldaniga also emphasized the team’s growth process, the daily work of the whole staff to improve Como’s defensive phase, and the adaptation of the new arrivals.
“We have worked a lot with the coach and the entire staff, both on the pitch and in the video room, to improve our defensive phase. Concentration is important for my role, and over the years, I have worked hard on this aspect to stay focused throughout all phases of the game and maintain the right mentality against any team. The new arrivals have immediately made a great technical contribution, and every week, thanks to the work, we are improving our communication and understanding.”
