Romanini deceives the Azzurri, then the guest trio with Bonelli, Maione and Cobucci In the final Colombo shortens and hits the post but not enough for a draw
PAVIA
The Accademia Pavese defeats the Fortunati and stops the pursuit of a Pavia that risks paying dearly for yesterday’s internal defeat in view of the next matches. Next Sunday’s match in San Giuliano Milanese becomes decisive for the blue ambitions, the first of two high-ranking direct clashes (the following Sunday the Alcione will arrive in via Alzaia).
After two convincing performances with Sant’Angelo and Sancolombano, Pavia deludes itself with the goal of Romanini’s advantage and then suffers three goals from an academy eager for redemption after having collected three defeats in 4 games. In the final, the race was reopened by Colombo but not enough to straighten the scores.
Compared to the formation of San Colombano, the new foregone in the blue home is the return of Villanova in defense, in place of the suspended Noia, while a left winger in the middle of the field is preferred to a left winger like Nucera. In the Academy out due to injury Eugenio, Tambussi returns to defense after the disqualification. The red and white novelty is the shift to the left in defense of Mazzocca who plays an excellent match. Initial study phase, then at the first opportunity Pavia in the lead: conclusion from the limit of Romani and Migliari intervenes by rejecting short, on the rebound arrives like a Romanini falcon who bags for the 1-0 of the Azzurri. A well-deserved advantage because up to that moment Pavia had done something more, but then things change completely.
Red and white overturn
In the final of the first half, in the 34th minute, the Academy draws: Maione’s personal action opens on the right for Bonelli who does not forgive by signing the 1-1. At 41 ‘corner beaten for the guests by Mazzocca and conclusion from the edge of the same Maione on which the blue goalkeeper Sacchi is overcome for the guest advantage: 1-2. At the start of the second half a free kick by Romanini and Migliari rejects and beats Nucera hard diagonally but the ball is a breath to the side.
Recovery. The Academy often finds space on the counterattack and on the 6 ‘first with a conclusion from Catania, then on the rebound Sacchi is good at saving on Cobucci’s close-range shot. The red and white striker does not forgive, however, in the 13th minute, when prompted by Catania he slips through the blue door for the 3-1. At 16 ‘Nisticò redesigns the Pavia by inserting Lizzio, Colombo and Esposito for Nucera, Feola and Nucera. At 22 ‘Migliari is good at opposing Colombo’s shot. At 39 ‘Pavia shortens the distance with Ottonello’s perfect assist for Colombo: 2-3. In the recovery thrill for the Academy goal: Colombo is still the protagonist with a cross for Esposito’s header that hits the outside post of the opponent’s goal. Shortly afterwards, however, the guests can celebrate the victory in the derby which rewards them for the great concreteness compared to a Pavia from which much more was expected and which even during the running race did not know how to straighten the situation, wasting a great chance to shorten on the leaders Varzi stopped at home and who brings 4 points ahead of the Azzurri. –
