Cagliari honors the memory of in the best of all worlds Andrea Caponemidfielder of the 2000s (100 appearances and 11 goals in 4 seasons, ndr) tragically passed away on Sunday at just 43 years old. After toasting the qualification for the Italian Cup round of 16 during the week, he also had the satisfaction of achieving his first victory (2-3) in the championship in Parma. Three important points which allow him to leave Monza in the uncomfortable last place in the standings. For men’s Pecchiareached by the Sardinians at 5, the third defeat in the last 4 days with 10 goals on their back must sound like an alarm bell. There is certainly something to review in defense if we want to secure safety points.
Zortea opens the pinwheel of gol
Cagliari started with the right attitude: they immediately engaged Suzuki with Piccoli and then, following the development of a corner, they passed (7′) with Yerry Mina, quick to repeat Luperto’s header which ended up on the post into the net. Referee Fourneau initially validated it then, following a report from the VAR, annulled it due to the Colombian being offside. The episode did not discourage Nicola’s men who insisted and, after trying again to hit the target with Luvumbo, they passed (32′): Luvumbo himself brushed a cross from the left for Zortea who headed it home.
Man draws i conti
Parma, until then dangerous only with Mihaila, suffered the blow and risked being challenged for the second time by Viola before the break. Pecchia tried to change something at the beginning of the second half by inserting Almqvist and Coulibaly for Mihaila and Valeri and, in fact, he was right. The two allowed the ducals to increase the intensity of their action and it was Man above all who benefited from it. The Romanian did the general rehearsal by challenging Scuffet and then sending a diagonal left-footed shot from a favorable position towards the edge of the post and in the 62nd minute he scored center on assist from the left by Coulibaly.
Marin enters and scores the 1-2
On the wings of enthusiasm, Parma insisted but ate the second goal on the counterattack with another substitute, Sohm, unmarked in the area by Man. Cagliari was not scared and, after reappearing in Suzuki’s area with Piccolo, was came back ahead (75′) with a gem from Marin, who had just entered, who, served by Adopo, slipped the ball under the intersection with a right-footed shot from outside.
Hernani makes it 2-2 on a penalty, Piccoli gives the victory to the Sardinians
Parma rushed forward and opportunities abounded: Bernabé grazed the crossbar, on the opposite front Gaetano missed the knockout shot on the counterattack face to face with Suzuki then Almqvist challenged Scuffet to the ground. Give and take, the hosts equalized in the 86th minute: Palomino, who replaced Mina in the second half, naively brought down another newcomer, Charpentier, on the edge. Fourneau initially decreed a free kick from outside then, following another indication from the VAR, pointed to the spot, allowing Hernani to score the 2-2. Ball in the center and Cagliari went on to regain the 3 points with a great diagonal shot from Piccoli on a through ball from Gaetano.
