The perfect race, the one that could be worth salvation. The Lecce dominates the field of Sassuolo, gives him three goals and takes a perhaps decisive step forward in the race towards salvation. Gendrey and Dorgu put the match on hold after just a quarter of an hour, Piccoli closed the game on the counterattack in the second half. For the Salento team, staying in Serie A is now very close, while for Ballardini’s team it is now becoming very difficult.
These are the words of Federico Baschirottodefender of Lecce, a Sky Sports in the post-race: “This victory weighs a lot, we work hard every day for the objectives and I have to congratulate my teammates. Perhaps the mentality has changed, we started working aware of having to face many direct clashes and the results are showing We want to reach safety as soon as possible.”
