PIACENZA – REAL CALEPINA 3-0
Ndoye in the 9th minute, Bassanini in the 80th minute, Recino in the 94th minute (R) (FINAL)
Piacenza beats Real Calepina with a clear 3-0, Caldiero responds by overcoming Virtus Ciserano and remains at the top: the promotion sprint will be decided in the last 90 minutes. An afternoon spent on two pitches: at Garilli the goals of Ndoye, Bassanini and Recino paved the way for the red and whites, at Caldiero a challenge full of a thousand emotions took place, with a whirlwind of goals and the home team’s victory in the the last breath that froze Garilli.
THE MATCH – Rossini has to give up Gerbaudo, stopped by the sports judge, but finds Corradi again from the first minute after a quick recovery from the injury. In defense there is confirmation for Baudouin, Marquez returns up front with D’Agostino, while Recino, not at his best, starts from the bench. Piacenza got off to a good start, shooting twice in the first few minutes and capable of breaking the deadlock in the 8th minute: Kernezo got to the back and put it in the center where Nodoye was, who left no escape with a half volley in Pisoni. D’Agostino immediately looks for an encore with a shot from distance (just over), Piace controls but risks in the 25th minute, when a sudden restart by the guests sends Quarena to the conclusion, Moro is saved in two halves. We see Piacenza again on the half hour mark and the red and whites are one step away from doubling their lead: Pisoni closes in at the last minute on Marquez, D’Agostino recovers the ball and shoots with confidence, finding opposition from a defender on the line. Thus we go to half-time with the score 1-0.
The second half began several minutes late to ensure that the match between Caldiero and Virtus Ciserano took place at the same time, which was stopped for a long time in the first half due to an injury to the visiting goalkeeper. And the news of the home team’s advantage comes from Caldiero, while at the Garilli Real Calepina comes close to equalizing with Tosini, who reaches Viola’s cross but sends it over the crossbar from two steps. The guests are growing, Piace struggles to increase the pace, but risks little or nothing behind them. The eyes are focused on the pitch, the ears tuned to Caldiero’s match and the roar of Garilli celebrates the equalizer of Virtus Ciserano which momentarily brings Piacenza back to the top; However, it is a joy that lasts a handful of minutes, because the Venetian team immediately takes the lead again. Thrill for Moro in the 74th minute, who risks being mocked on a cross from the left deflected by a teammate; Rossini changes and sends Bassanini and Recino onto the field for Ndoye and Marquez (previously if Zini also entered), Virtus Ciserano equalizes with Caldiero and Recino misses the second goal by having his shot rejected into an empty net after passing the guest goalkeeper, who came out on his own three-quarters. However, the 2-0 is only postponed for a few seconds, Bassanini celebrates by capitalizing on Zini’s assist and scoring from a few steps away. D’Agostino comes close to scoring the third goal, in full injury time Bassanini wins a penalty, Recino makes no mistake from the spot and closes the match. Ruining the party was the news of Caldiero’s third, decisive goal: a freezing shower at Garilli. However, promotion will be decided on the last day, when the red and whites will be on stage on the Varesina pitch and the Caldiero on the Villa Valle pitch.
