Palermo falls at home in the first leg of the semi-final. Venezia beat Barbera 1 goal to 0 in the second half: a feat is needed in the return leg.
Just the goal by Pierini in the 62nd minute Venice to conquer Barbera. The Palermo comes out defeated in the first leg of the Serie B play-off semi-final, losing the first act with the result of 1-0. A tense match that took place at La Favorita, unblocked only by the great left-footed shot of the Venetian number 10.
Mignani’s men never managed to put the guests in difficulty, who played a calm match from a defensive point of view – the strategy of not revealing themselves and trying to contain Palermo in view of the return leg seemed rather clear -.
Now Palermo almost needs a miracle to reach the final. In Venice, in fact, on the way back of May 24th, it will be necessary to win with a two-goal difference, given that in the event of a victory by one goal, which would bring the score back to a draw, the match would not go to extra time given that in the event of a draw, the best positioned team would advance. in the standings (i.e. the Venetians who closed the regular season in third place).
