Reggina’s victory over Sambiase in the last round. Amaranto in the playoffs as third parties, with strong opposition from the fans aimed at the team, management and ownership. The Giallorossi were protagonists of a performance that was far from perfect, but which came at the end of another excellent run in Serie D. A celebration, however, for the over 350 supporters in the visiting sector.

In the 8th minute of the second half the Giallorossi closed the gap: a corner from the left and a winning volley from Kouame. At 27′ the amaranth trio: free kick with Di Grazia’s right foot and the ball in the bottom of the bag, three minutes before the 3-2 of Sambiase scored by Ortolini following a service in the area by Francisco. To close the score in the 33rd minute Ragusa was cool in finishing an assist from Salandria with a low shot.
