The Catania by Michele Zeols wins 1-0 against Benevento thanks to the al network 45′ Pietro’s Cianci. The Rossazzurri, by virtue of the result achieved, are therefore automatically qualified for the National Play Off Phase. Below are the report cards and match scoreboard.
FURLAN 7: He gives security to the defensive department with calm outings, in the first half he saves the result with an excellent save on Karic.
CASTELLINI 7: Grit, wickedness and mastery. Masterful match from the young 2003 player who finally came to his senses after a lackluster performance in recent months.
MUNICH 6.5: Always present in closures and often helps his teammates to set up game actions
CELLS 6: Sufficient performance, considering that he often has difficulty in doubling. All in all he succeeds in his task.
BOUAH 7: Lots of leg and running for the Roma school full-back who is a loose cannon for 96 minutes and is a perennial danger for Benevento.
ZAMMARINI 6+: First half a bit slow and struggling, perhaps not in top form after the resentment in the pre-match in Messina. But on the pitch he gave his all until the end and left exhausted in the 86th minute.
(from 86′) STURARO sv
QUAINI 6.5: The former Fiorenzuola player is fundamental for his flexibility on the pitch. He plays both central and midfield and is able to help defense and midfield perfectly.
WELBECK 7: Man of the match in midfield for Catania. He won’t have the midfield skills that he manages to establish but he is omnipresent in the middle of the pitch and recovers all the balls. In the 61st minute he would also have the ball to double but he wastes it.
CICERELLI 6.5: Game with two faces. First half where the former Lazio player was often imprecise and hasty, excellent performance in the second half and often produced interesting crosses for potential goals.
(from 72′) NDOJ sv
DI CARMINE 6: A match of physical sacrifice, but the former Perugia player was generally absent in the restarts due to problems linked to his sub-optimal physical condition.
CIANCI 7.5: Masterful performance from the attacker, who scores the opening goal and comes close to doubling the score in the second half. The best on the pitch hands down.
(from 77′) CHIRICO’ sv
ZEOLI 7: It was not easy and obvious to save Catania in a difficult situation. He succeeded in his aim by playing a game of determination and heart, saving a season that fell short of expectations.
