They were not enough Heart and a reaction vehement in the second half at Cosenza to avoid the first defeat of the championship. red and blue they paid for their too much naivety defensive. The Mantua he took advantage of this to win the match after having squandered the double advantage. Alviniin view of the midweek challenge against the Spice will have to start again frompride shown by his.
Defense passive and distracted. The Cosenza He only changed one eleventh compared to the debut match: Kourfalidis has replaced Charlys. The capacity defensive highlighted against the Cremonesehowever, collapsed inexorably at the “Martelli”. red and blue they fell after 105 seconds. The Mantua he punished the silanes avoiding high blood pressure. The advantage of Virgilian It was born by exploiting the lucidity in setting up Brignans. The central of Possanzini he worked the ball into his own penalty area and set up the play Flowers in the middle of the field red and white. The attacking winger has started his ride. The rearguard of Alvini she ran backwards. At the edge of the area, however, no one attacked the number 11 who opened his sights and punished with his right foot Micai with an angled shot.
The Cosenza he tried to forget about the hook he received and shortly before the twentieth minute he gave the impression he could react. Party he deflected the conclusion of Bouquetsthen it was Kouan to have two good opportunities to equalise.
At the best moment, however, the Mantua delivered the second strong slap. Again the back line Cosentino It wasn’t flawless. The offside line was broken by From the Walls. Flowers he served Bragantini that has dried up Micai with a new surgical conclusion from eighteen meters.
Reaction. Alvini he shuffled the cards at half-time. The Tuscan coach left the players in the locker room From the Walls And From Horace. The first one was replaced by Venturesman chosen to face Mensahthe second one instead left space for Ricciardi. Deer he moved to the left lane and his performance improved. The Roman engaged in a personal duel with Partythen inspired the goal that allowed the Cosenza to halve the disadvantage. Fumagalli opened up to the ex South Tyrol and then he closed the action behind the goalkeeper Mantuan.
The team of Alvini he had the merit of staying in the game. red and blue they searched for the door of Partyin some cases even unconsciously. After a backflip of Fumagalli finished wide, Rizzo Pinna made it 2-2. The attacking midfielder took advantage of the opponent’s defensive gap and on the pass of Christov he equalized.
THE red and blue they started again with their heads down to turn the match around but a new lack of concentration defensive it cost the knockout because on the developments of a corner the red and white they signed the mocking 3-2 with Suns.
