OK, for anyone else, it looks like page 58 is when things turned south in this thread.
In short, it sounds like my worries that we'd have difficulty putting together an effective offensive attack against Ascoli were somewhat confirmed. Two free kicks, really. And fortuanely we got them, because giving up that goal to Ascoli -- even if it was deflected -- looked like another example of Abbiati being somewhat out of the correct position.
I'll take the three points, though, and hope for better against Udinese Wednesday.
