Final mockery for Messina, who in full recovery are joined by Castrumfavara and miss another wonderful opportunity to get close to the area that is worth direct salvation. In the direct clash against “Bruccoleri”, the Giallorossi took the lead in the 16th minute thanks to a play by a rediscovered Touré, who stopped and unleashed a right-footed missile that made it 0-1. Giardino responds by being present on Piazza and De Min. Then in the second half the Peloritani seem to be in control until a series of repeated changes at the turn of the 90th minute. In the 92nd minute a melee broke out between the benches due to a substitution “hinted at” and then not carried out between Werner and Pedicone. We return to the pitch, ball in the area and penalty called for a contact between Varela and De Caro, which leaves many doubts for the guests, who were however not very clever in managing the end of the match. Varela himself takes charge of the joke and displaces Giardino. It ends 1-1. Two points in the last four games for Messina, who have not yet won under Feola’s guidance.
