At 1:00 a.m. Beijing time on March 24, Serie B team Brescia officially announced the dismissal of the 48-year-old Inzaghi and hired Corini to return to coaching.
In the 27th round of Serie B, Brescia defeated Perugia 2-1 at home thanks to a killer goal scored by the 40-year-old Palacio, when they could still rank second in Serie B, just one point away from the top team Lecce.
However, after the 2-1 reversal of Perugia, Brescia has not tasted a win in the last 4 rounds of 3 draws and 1 loss, only 3 points, a total of 9 points lost. This allowed Brescia to instantly slip from Serie B 2 to 5th, while trailing Cremona and Pisa by 5 and 4 points behind Serie B top-two.
Previously, Brescia had considered firing Inzaghi, but because Inzaghi later led the team to the top two of Serie B, the club did not know how to start. Because Inzaghi recently led the team to a 4-round 0-win situation, Brescia found the opportunity to play.
After leaving Benevento last year, Inzaghi signed a contract with Brescia, but the contract was terminated early after nine months of cooperation. Inzaghi had led Benevento to a record-breaking promotion in Serie B, but unfortunately this time he failed to coach Brescia for a full season in Serie B.
Brescia hired Corini to return to coaching after firing Inzaghi. Corini debuted in Brescia as a player and coached Brescia 2 years ago.
