Oscar Hiljemark recently left his coaching job at Swedish club Elfsborg to take over struggling Pisa.
The 33-year-old Swede has been thrown straight into the bottom half of Italy's top flight.
On Friday night, a key match in the fight for survival awaited Pisa as they faced off against the relegation-threatened Hellas Verona. The stakes were clear in Hiljemark's debut. This was a match neither team could afford to lose.
The game was characterized by the high stakes. The final score was 0–0 after a tight contest, and Hiljemark has thus taken his first point as head coach in Italy.
