Successful debut for Romulea by mister Knockthe 3 goals all arriving in the first half of the game were enough to overcome the Ladispoli on the first day of Group D. The Tyrrhenians pulled back in the second half, but the superiority of the Giallorossi on the pitch was evident and the 3 goals scored in the first half of the game effectively frozen the outcome of the contest. Romulea is proactive at the start and tries to take measures from their opponents. Ladispoli keeps the center of gravity quite low and defends well, with tight shirts and compact units. However, the Capitoline players put their foot down, first with a header that hits the post and then in the 22nd minute the play that brings down the rossoblu’s resistance: passing through to look for Segata, the attacker escapes the defense and does well to resist in the physical duel and then beating an innocent La Mantia. Concrete chance for Ladispoli shortly after, De Luca’s boys see the possibility of equalizing but Rosalba’s conclusion hits Frati’s gloves. Powerful but central conclusion. Romulea bites their opponents and attacks the contest: in the 26th minute, a corner from the right, a touch from Bellisomo with the head and a winning tap from Lilli who scores the second goal one step away from the goal line. Romulea heavily influenced the match with strength, cynicism and malice. But the San Giovanni team is not satisfied and before the double whistle comes the hat trick: action maneuvered on the right, low cross aimed at favoring Rago’s touch which pushes the ball over the goal line. Heavy deficit at half-time for De Luca’s Verdazzurri. In the second half the Ceretans with pride and determination did not give up, they played their cards against an opponent who was certainly of a superior level. In the 9th minute Croce, the most active of him, is the protagonist of an excellent play and when he arrives in the area he is cool in wrong-footing the opposing goalkeeper. Goal from the Lidensi, it’s 1-3. Ladispoli pushed on the accelerator for about ten minutes, finding greater aggression than in the first half. Stricari squanders a wonderful opportunity from a few steps away but Romulea is subsequently good at putting the dispute back on their side and calmly managing the result which was never really in question.
