A draw that satisfies the guests much more.

Cremonese forced by Venezia to a 0-0 home draw in the first leg of the playoff final, which is worth the last place for promotion to Serie A. A result welcomed by the lagunari almost jubilant, after the triple final whistle: in fact, the match turns out to be a battle with the aim above all not to concede goals to the grigiorossi, in view of the return on Venetian soil.

In fact, the scoreboard at the end of the match certifies the greater danger of Cremonese forward, with a real shot on target that proves to be però fruitless. True è però that Venezia does not just stand by and watch, on the contrary. Not surprisingly, the first conclusion of the match è by Pohjanpalo, and early in the second half Pierini also hits a crossbar.

Cremonese però tries persistently, and Joronen halfway through the first half has to overcome himself on Buonaiuto and then on Coda. Then he also gets a hand from Svoboda, who is good at closing in on another attempt by Buonaiuto, facilitating the intervention of the Venezia goalkeeper.

In the second half, told of Pierini’s crossbar, è mainly Cremonese tried: on Vazquez the Venezia defense walled up, then once again Joronen secured the result by saying no to Castagnetti and then Coda. In the last quarter of an hour it is then the attempts of Zanimacchia and Ciofani that break against the goalkeeper of the Lagunari. Return set for next Sunday, with two results out of three in favor of the neroverde formation.
