Cosenza gets a point in the away match in Palermo. Alvini’s team immediately eliminates zero from the standings after Thursday’s penalty. The rossoblù have made it clear that they have not allowed themselves to be affected by the decision of the National Federal Court.

After hitting the post, Fumagalli sealed the lead for Sila in the 40th minute, taking advantage of Ciervo’s service. Palermo, who pressed in search of an equaliser, found the final 1-1 with ten minutes to go through Di Mariano, who had just come on the pitch. The Dionisi winger closed on Insigne’s cross.
