Szetela, Brescia Fall To Rimini 1-0

Young American midfielder Danny Szetela played the second half of Brescia's 1-0 loss to Rimini in Serie B action tonight. Brescia is currently in 6th place in Serie B with 46 points - three points out of the promotion zone.

Brescia's enduring problem this year has been its finishing and this week's result is just another example. The midfield is strong and well organized but Lombardians tend to choke once they have posession in and around their opponent's penalty area. Brescia has enough quality to make the jump to Serie A, but this lack of scoring punch has been the story of their season. If they can't find their scoring touch soon, Brescia can look forward to spending another year in Serie B.
