Italian football clubs face disciplinary and performance challenges

Nuova Ternana has received a 400 euro fine following their Coppa Italia preliminary round match against Angelana. The Lega D sports judge issued the penalty after supporters damaged the netting in the visiting section of the Migaghelli stadium during the 2-0 victory. The club may also be required to pay for documented damages. Additionally, player Kevin Meola has received a formal warning following a yellow card.

Meanwhile, Salernitana faces scrutiny following an elimination from the Coppa Italia and a loss in their third-tier league debut against Sorrento. Vincenzo De Luca has called for squad reinforcements to avoid a difficult season, noting the team's need to improve following the competitive performance of Sorrento. Despite high fan engagement and season ticket sales, the club's management and ownership face pressure to invest and improve results to avoid relegation struggles.
