Genoa. The goal of Borini had made the Doria people explode with joy, but with just under ten minutes to go the daring equalizer came from Cutrone from a few steps away: at Ferraris it is 1-1 between Sampdoria and Como after a match full of reversals and opportunities. The Como team pressed on, thanks to a squad that was decidedly structured upwards, but the Blucerchiati did not sit idly by and created several opportunities to take the lead. They had succeeded, but the former AC Milan player nullified the great celebration of the Blucerchiati fans. Yes However, it is a useful point for the standings, which allows us to overtake Pisa in eighth place. The next meeting will be in Lecco for a very important away match: Pirlo’s team will be called for three points to continue to compete for a place in the playoffs.

First time of suffering for the Sampdoria which suffered a lot from the initiative of How. Under sometimes pouring rain, the first half ended with a score of 0-0. Two great opportunities for Roberts’ team foiled by Stankovic at the ready: a shot from a treacherous trajectory by Cutrone (6′) and a header by Gabrielloni (15′). In both cases the Blucerchiati goalkeeper flew to remove the ball from under the crossbar. There Sampdoria manages to appear near Semper in the 41st minute with Borini, who sees a diagonal shot to the near post blocked for a corner. Another opportunity for Gabrielloni with a header in the 45th minute with Stankovic always ready.
