Kristian Thorstvedt lost his two front teeth during Cagliari-Sassuolo but continued to play anyway. The episode occurred in the first half of the postponed matchday 15 of Serie A and following a clash between the Norwegian and Soulemana: aerial tackle in midfield, wide elbow and direct hit on the teeth. Thorstvedt immediately put his hand to his mouth and was then taken off the field because he immediately started losing a lot of blood.
But once treated he promptly returned to the field, without his two teeth. Furthermore, according to reconstructions from the sidelines, the Norwegian, reassuring Dionisi of his desire to continue the match, also showed his coach his two knocked out teeth: “Here they are, mister”. However, Soulemana’s foul was not considered intentional by the match director, Mariani, who did not sanction the Cagliari midfielder. “The player who committed that foul wasn’t even booked… But we have to accept it”, Dionisi’s bitter comment after the match, which returned to what happened.
Cagliari-Sassuolo 2-1: Lapadula and Pavoletti overturn it in full injury time
Beyond this episode, Cagliari-Sassuolo was a match that provided many emotions at the end. It ended 2-1 for Claudio Ranieri’s team who overcame Erlic’s initial advantage for the Neroverde within five minutes: between the 94th and 99th minutes. With two goals in full injury time beyond regulation time, first Lapadula and then Pavoletti – with a great overhead kick goal – turned the situation around and allowed Cagliari to gain three precious points. In fact, the rossoblù overtook Verona, Empoli and Udinese in one fell swoop and reached 13 points in the standings, in sixteenth place.
