The Cus Pavia comes out defeated from the field of Rho. In the return semi-final of the interregional promotion phase of the Serie C championship, the Cussian hope of continuing the journey is shattered. The Pavesi now have two irrelevant matches with Cernusco, eliminated by Savona, but victorious from the return match.

The positive feelings gained in the second half of the first leg are confirmed by a brilliant start by the cussini. The fast and precise transmission of the ball, the effective foot play and a performing touch, allow the Pavesi to maintain control of operations almost constantly in the opposing half of the pitch. After some advancing phases, Amicucci is good at finding the gap between two defenders and serving Brandani on the wing; acceleration of the latter that overtakes two opponents and just before the goal line bowls a lob to the always ready Anzoli who collects and deposits in goal. Marconi is not wrong and we are 0-7. The script does not change until the first decisive episode of the race: fast action in hand and, like a bolt from the blue, the interception arrives that finds the cussini unable to react. Solitary race that ends in the middle of the poles and a tie score. 7-7. As the minutes go by, Rho’s pressure increases until the second half, 14-7. The yellow and blue throw themselves forward and manage to get a free kick which Marconi converts for 14-10. We are at the end of the time and the yellow and blue are in contact. Rho is good at recovering the oval, maintaining possession and achieving the goal of 21-10. The second half still sees a substantial balance. The cussini manage to make themselves dangerous on several occasions, but there is always the final flicker to conclude. The end of the game, thanks to the numerical inferiority for a yellow card, is merciless. Three tries, all from scrum, make the score too heavy for what was seen in the 80 ‘. –
