Leonardo Semplici is glad SPAL “resumed where we left off last season with the right mentality” to conquer Bologna 1-0.

A stunning long-range rocket from Jasmin Kurtic proved enough to take the Stadio Dall’Ara and the local Emilia-Romagna derby in the opening game of the season.

“We resumed where we left off last season with the right mentality, ran very few risks and are happy to have won this derby,” Semplici told Rai Sport.

SPAL were the only newly-promoted side in 2017-18 not to go straight back down to Serie B and achieved that with a strong end to the campaign.

“It’s a victory we dedicate to the fans and the club. I hope we can keep building on this and do far better. Some players only arrived two days ago.

“In the circumstances, an away win like this gives us a lot of confidence for the future, allowing us to keep working with enthusiasm.”
