Bad start to the year for Acr Messina, overwhelmed 4-0 by Athletic Palermo. Romano’s team surrendered in a match that had no history. At 26′ of the first half the ex’s goal with Anzelmo who hits the net from long range, beating Sorrentino. The other three goals from the Palermo team came in the second half: it always started with a goal from a former player: Grillo, again from outside the area (deflection by Garufi). Poker is then completed by Zaic and Micoli.
