Attackers in power at Unipol Domus, where Cagliari and Como ended 1-1. Piccoli’s goal at the end of the first half was answered by Cutrone’s. Intense start to the match by both teams, with Como finding the way to the net after three minutes thanks to Belotti – but it was all in vain due to an offside position -, and Cagliari responding with the initiative from the right by Luvumbo who moved to the center and shot finding Reina’s hands.
Reina undecided, Piccoli does not forgive
Como makes a dangerous comeback in the 33rd minute with a long-range shot from Strefezza that Scuffet has to save with a dive. However, it is Cagliari who finds the goal: an offensive run by Luperto who heads the ball forward for the winning deflection by Piccoli who is good at surprising Reina, who is hesitant to come out.
Cutrone, a striker’s goal
We go into half-time with the Sardinians in the lead, which however lasts only for eight minutes in the second half: Cutrone, on the developments of a corner, pushes a ball corrected by Dossena from close range into the net. Then the rhythms gradually settle, with changes on both sides implemented by Nicola and Fabregas in search of new advanced plays. A new opportunity for Como arises thanks to the new arrival Nico Paz, who in the 70th minute receives the corner taken by Strefezza and kicks with his right, Scuffet reacts.
«The race report»
Balance that holds up even in the final part of the match, with Como coming very close to overtaking in injury time with a great play by Nico Paz, who frees himself from a defender on the left and crosses into the center for Cerri, a former player in the match, who is not punctual with the tap-in. It is the last flash of the Cagliari challenge, with the Sardinians drawing for the second consecutive time and Como taking their first point in this Serie A.
