Adrian Semper - Seven saves despite loss Semper made seven saves and allowed two goals in Saturday's 2-1 defeat against Lazio.

Impact Semper wrapped up his first season as a consistent start in the top flight with an excellent showing. He made seven saves and allowed only two goals, but the team as a whole just couldn't do enough to salvage a result. Semper had a decent campaign, though he kept only four clean sheets amidst a dreadful team campaign.

Michel Aebischer - Assists in defeat Aebischer assisted once to go with one cross (one accurate) and one chance created in Saturday's 2-1 loss against Lazio.

Impact Aebischer provided one assist during Saturday's loss, a nice goal contribution to end his campaign. Pisa are set for relegation, so unless he secures a move away from the club, Aebischer will ply his trade in Serie B next season. He finished with one goal and two assists in 35 appearances in his fifth season in Serie A.

Stefano Moreo - Nets in loss Moreo scored one goal to go with two shots (one on goal), two crosses (zero accurate) and two chances created in Saturday's 2-1 defeat to Lazio.

Impact Moreo ended the season with a goal in a disappointing loss to Lazio. That wraps his season up with seven goals and one assist during his first campaign in the top flight. Pisa finished dead last in the league, so barring a surprise transfer back into the top flight, Moreo is set for Serie B in 2026/27.

He has been one of the few decent Pisa performers despite the relegation, notching two goals and three assists in 34 showings (21 starts), adding 27 key passes, 98 crosses (32 accurate) and 67 tackles.

MAY 23 • ROTOWIRE

Marius Marin - Sidelined for Lazio tilt Marin was omitted from Pisa's squad list to face Lazio on Saturday.

Impact Marin hasn't returned to action in the previous two games despite being available after seemingly recovering from a knee injury and might be dealing with a flare-up of the same issue. He has been a linchpin for most of the season, registering 45 tackles, 23 clearances and 18 crosses (one accurate) in 23 appearances, with no goal contributions. Ebenezer Akinsanmiro has absorbed his workload for the most part. Marin has been rumoured to latch onto a bigger team as a free agent next summer.

MAY 22 • ROTOWIRE

Matteo Tramoni - Absent for Lazio game Tramoni (thigh) has been ruled out for Saturday's match versus Lazio.

Impact Tramoni has been unable to shake off a thigh injury, skipping his fifth straight outing. Isak Vural, Malthe Hojholt and Felipe Loyola replaced him in previous fixtures.

MAY 22 • ROTOWIRE

Francesco Coppola - Unavailable versus Lazio Coppola won't be an option against Lazio on Saturday, as he's set for surgery to remove a bone bruise in his left ankle, Sesta Porta relayed.

Impact Coppola will miss his third game in a row but because of a different physical problem. He closes his maiden Serie A season with 13 tackles, four interceptions and four blocks in seven appearances (five on target), with no clean sheets. Pisa will be a little depleted in the back in the season finale, as Antonio Caracciolo (suspension) and Daniel Denoon (ankle) are sidelined as well. Simone Canestrelli, Raul Albiol, Rosen Bozhinov and Arturo Calabresi will pick up the slack.

MAY 22 • ROTOWIRE

Adrian Semper - Leaky run continues in goal Semper recorded two saves and allowed three goals in Sunday's 3-0 loss to Napoli.

Impact Semper endured another difficult outing, conceding three goals for the second straight match.

He has featured seven times so far, notching 13 tackles (five won), four interceptions and 13 clearances, with no clean sheets.

MAY 15 • ROTOWIRE

Marius Marin - Unused sub versus Cremonese Marin (knee) didn't get minutes in Sunday's 3-0 loss to Cremonese.

Impact Marin stayed on the bench after missing six fixtures because of a knee injury.

He has recorded 12 tackles (seven won), two crosses (zero accurate) and six interceptions in his last six displays (five starts).

MAY 12 • ROTOWIRE

Adrian Semper - Allows three in loss Semper made two saves and allowed three goals in Sunday's 3-0 defeat versus Cremonese.

Impact Semper's struggles continued as he conceded three goals to extend his run without a clean sheet to 12 consecutive games. The goalkeeper had opened the season impressively for a newly promoted side, keeping four clean sheets in his first 11 games, but since then the team has been unable to keep a single one, with the side now sitting in 20th place and relegated. Another tough test awaits on Sunday against Napoli.

MAY 11 • ROTOWIRE

Felipe Loyola - Sent off against Cremonese Loyola registered two tackles (two won) and received a straight red card at the 57th minute in Sunday's loss to Cremonese.

Impact Loyola drew a rare start over Michel Aebischer after a few rounds, but he didn't produce a lot and was expelled early in the second half because of a very rough foul. He'll be unavailable for at least the Napoli game next week. Malthe Hojholt and Gabriele Piccinini are also options in the role.

MAY 10 • ROTOWIRE

Rosen Bozhinov - Shown red Sunday Bozhinov was shown a red card in the 23rd minute of Sunday's match against Cremonese and will be suspended for the next Serie A clash against Napoli.

Impact Bozhinov was sent off after picking up two yellow cards in the first half of Sunday's clash against Cremonese and will miss at least one match due to suspension.

MAY 10 • ROTOWIRE

Francesco Coppola - Picks up injury Coppola hasn't been selected for Sunday's game against Cremonese due to a late muscular issue, Sesta Porta informed.

Impact Coppola could have gotten a shot if the coach started rotating after an early relegation, but he got hurt in training. He has featured just once in the last six fixtures. Simone Canestrelli, Antonio Caracciolo and Rosen Bozhinov have started consistently as of late.

MAY 9 • ROTOWIRE

Marius Marin - Fit for Cremonese game Marin (knee) has been selected for Sunday's clash with Cremonese.

Impact Marin has recuperated from a knee sprain that sidelined him for six matches. He was one of the top options in the midfield before getting hurt, but he might be eased into action. Ebenezer Akinsanmiro and Malthe Hojholt absorbed his minutes lately. He has tallied 11 tackles (seven won), six interceptions and two crosses (zero accurate) in his last four outings.

MAY 9 • ROTOWIRE

Samuele Angori - Fine performance in Lecce game Angori recorded three crosses (one accurate), two chances created and two corners and drew four fouls in Friday's 2-1 loss against Lecce.

He has had at least one key pass in the last four rounds, amassing six and adding four tackles (two won), two interceptions and four shots (one on target) over that span, with one assist. Additionally, this marked his fifth display in a row with one or more corners (five total).

MAY 1 • ROTOWIRE

Ebenezer Akinsanmiro - Robust defensively versus Lecce Akinsanmiro registered five tackles (two won), one key pass and four interceptions and drew one foul in Friday's 2-1 loss to Lecce.

Impact Akinsanmiro was a muscular presence in the midfield in his third straight start filling in for Marius Marin (knee), and posted a new season high in tackles and matched the one in interceptions, but it didn't suffice to properly stifle the adversaries. He snapped a three-game streak with one clearance. He has registered 10 tackles (four won), three chances created and six interceptions in the last five contests.

MAY 1 • ROTOWIRE

Juan Cuadrado - Bubbly cameo versus Lecce Cuadrado recorded one shot (zero on goal), four crosses (two accurate) and one chance created and drew one foul in nine minutes in Friday's 2-1 loss versus Lecce.

Impact Cuadrado was one of the most productive players for his side despite coming off the bench late, leading it in deliveries. He has yet to draw a start since returning from a major thigh injury in mid-February. He has tallied 22 crosses (two accurate), four chances created and four shots (zero on target) in his last seven outings since then.

Impact Stojilkovic paced his team in shots in his second consecutive start but couldn't capitalize on a pair of good opportunities. He's still searching for his first goal contribution.

He has tallied four attempts (oen on target), one key pass and two crosses (one accurate) in his last five appearances.

MAY 1 • ROTOWIRE

MAY 1 • ROTOWIRE

Mehdi Leris - Scores against Lecce Leris scored one goal to go with four chances created, five crosses (five accurate) and four corners in Friday's 2-1 loss versus Lecce.

He has registered at least one cross in his last five appearances (all starts), totaling 17 deliveries (seven accurate) and adding three shots (one on target), six corners and 14 tackles (nine won) over that span.
