The rossoblùs chase throughout the game and then overturn the result with Pereiro and Cerri in injury time
CAGLIARI. Incredible 4-3 for Cagliari at the end of a terrifying match. With the team down first 2-0 and then 3-1. On the other hand, with time expired, at 3-2 for the ducals, here are the goals of Pereiro and Cerri that overturned the result. Three extraordinary points at the end of a match in which the rossoblùs had always chased and actually played very badly. Beyond the hangover for success, the rossoblù must change course, otherwise the relegation cannot be avoided.
The play-off for Cagliari had started badly. Parma took the lead in the 6 ‘with a Pezzella shot from outside the box on the development of a corner kick. Cagliari goes apnea and gives the first signal of recovery at 12 ‘, when Nainggolan draws Nandez to the limit who pulls right but misses the aim. At 18 ‘it’s Marin’s turn to warm Sepe’s hands with a right from distance. Parma is not watching and on 23 ‘there is still a shot, in the area, by Pezzella on which this time the vice-Cragno Vicario rejects.
At 25 ‘cross from Zappa, Pezzella touches with his elbow accompanying the ball with the movement. The referee gives the penalty at first, then changes his mind, after the recall of the Var. A shock for Cagliari that from the possible 1-1 suffers in the 31st minute the doubling of Parma by Kucka unmarked in the area. The rossoblù finally shake up in the 40th minute when on a cross from Carboni from the left, Pavoletti detaches in the area and puts the 1-2 ball inside. At 47 ‘then there is a nice shot from Duncan that is lost on the bottom.
At 5 ‘of the second half, Cagliari touches the 2-2 with an action on the right by Nainggolan and a conclusion on a rebound by Marin that ends up by a whisker on the side of Sepe’s goal. A flash immediately extinguished by Parma who at 15 ‘returns above two goals with Man who strikes Vicario, not without fault, from outside the area. Pereiro and Simeone enter for Rugani and Duncan at 21 ‘. It is the move of desperation, for the coach Semplici, to try to straighten a game that is now compromised. A minute later there is Marin who hits the gap from the edge and the score changes again: 2-3. At 23 ‘cross from Godin and Joao Pedro with a header close to the target by a whisker. At 26 ‘Kurtic eats a goal scored from two meters. At 35 ‘again Nainggolan tries to play the charge, runs to the right and then crosses to the center, where Pavoletti spits with his head but sends the ball out.
Then a continuous attack, very confused culminating in the 46th minute with a great goal from Pereiro. 3-3? But not for an idea: at 49 ‘in fact here is Cerri thrown into the fray in extremis who with his head remembers having made such a magic against Sampdoria at the end of 2019: the brushed cross is by Pereiro. Head of the tall man of Cagliari and goooooool. 4-3, and we start again.
