Cagliari sees salvation and throws Monza into the abyss: 3-0

Cagliari picks up a victory against Monza that could weigh heavily in the race toward salvation, and at the same time makes the Brianzoli’s standings situation even more serious. It ends 3-0 for the hosts, who in this way take themselves to +6 from the relegation zone and breathe air of salvation. Biancorossi, on the other hand, are increasingly in trouble: the fourth-last place remains 10 points away.

The tension on the court is high, and you can tell by the very low number of chances seen in the opening game at the Unipol Domus’Unipol Domus. In the opening of the match, Viola tried a header on a Cagliari restart and a nice cross by Zortea, then the pace dropped and the tension increased. Monza, however, tries not to just sit back and watch, with Birindelli, Mota and Keita Balde in particular trying to trouble Caprile. In the final half Viola and Felici are particularly active, and for the guests Bianco tries.

But the score is unblocked only in the opening minutes of the second half: it is 49′ when Augello comes forward on the left and crosses to the center, for Viola’s winning shot. Mota and Keita Balde try to lead Monza’s redemption, but it is especially the newly entered Ciurria who goes close to the equalizing goal. Then Turati saves everything on Luvumbo.

These are the warnings of the doubling, which Cagliari finds at 73′: foul by Kyriakopoulos on Luperto, Gaetano is in charge of beating the free kick and right-footed discharges the ball behind Turati. This time Monza failed to react and in the final, after a clamorous mistake by Pavoletti on a rebound by the visiting goalkeeper on Gaetano and a crossbar hit by the same ex-Genoa striker, on 92′ Luvumbo tripled on a counterattack and closed the accounts for good.
