The rossoblùs still postpone the appointment with the first victory: Keita’s goal in the first half was useless
CAGLIARI. The joke comes in the second minute of recovery when Cagliari, tooth and nail, thought they had snatched their first win of the season. Instead a shot in the area by Busio deflected by Caceres nails Cagliari to the third draw of the season, postponing once again the appointment with the three points.
Cagliari did not play a great game even if the commitment from everyone was there. A lot of pressing, a lot of good will. Little construction phase apart from the good ability of the rossoblù in the transition phase, which gave the goal of the illusory advantage of Keita and some other discreet ideas. But the defense once again proved to be shaky and the physical fit still leaves something to be desired. In short, we go to the stop with a meager booty and the conviction that there is a lot of work to be done to get out of this swamp.
The breaking latest news. Cagliari starts with the 3-5-2 with Carboni, Godin and Caceres in defense; Lyko, Deiola, Strootman, Marin and Nandez in between, and the pair Keita-Joâo Pedro forward. The rossoblùs start decided with a pressing on the remittances of Venice. In attack, the first 15 ‘recorded only some “lightening” shots by Jp10 and Deiola. But at 19 ‘comes the advantage: break by Marin who steals the ball and serves Nandez who widens on the right for Caceres, immediate cross and precise deflection of Keita’s head who bags.
Venezia replied in the 26th minute with a volley from Johnsen on a cross from the right that Cragno managed to block. Cagliari was very dangerous in the 32nd minute with Marin, in the evening of grace, who started on a throw from Joâo Pedro and fired a shot that hit the base of the left post.
The second half opens with a Venetian counterattack: from Johnsen to Crnigoj who shoots from the edge but does not frame the mirror of the goal. Reply after 5 ‘the arrembante Nandez who flies to the right wing before sending an inviting ball into the area on which Keita arrives with a fraction of a second late with the door wide open in front. Cragno returns to action on 18 ‘when he blocks a treacherous header from Busio on the ground. At 21 ‘first Rossoblù change after the three operated by Venice: Keita gives way to Pavoletti. After 6 minutes change of form with the entry of Zappa for Deiola and the team that passes to 4-4-2.
The rossoblù keep the advantage until 2 ‘of recovery, when an action in the area of the Venziani sends Busio to the shot, who finds a lucky deviation from Caceres that completely puts Cragno out of action: the ball rears up and enters the net, condemning the Cagliari still fasting victories.
