 Tognozzi played a major role in the 2006/2007 season that saw Reggina avoid relegation to Serie B.This was a remarkable achievement considering the 11 penalty point penalty the club had incurred following the second wave of the Serie A match-fixing scandal.The following season Tognozzi started well but was injured on 21 October 2007 in the home game against Inter due to a reckless challenge by Patrick Vieira.
