The Curi match lights up after 2 ‘with the penalty kick assigned to the hosts for a foul on Olivieri: the attacker shows up on the spot, but the right is neutralized by Caprile. After 10 ‘Bari passes with Folorunsho, who served in the area by Maita places the left that is worth 1-0 behind Gori. Castori’s team tries to regroup and in the 34th minute almost equal with Angella’s header, which is printed on the crossbar after Caprile’s deviation. Bari doubles in the 53rd minute with the usual Cheddira: the red and white striker takes advantage of the uncertainty in defense of the hosts and bags into an empty net. Perugia is not there and shortens the distance with the header of Strizzolo (57 ‘). After Casasola’s post, Castori’s team remains in 10 for the red remedied by Sgarbi (double yellow).

Reggina-Südtirol 4-0

The game changes in the 24th minute, with Greco’s team remaining inferior after Curto’s expulsion for a bad intervention on Fabbian. A few turns of the clock and the 2003 class unlocks the match with a nice header on Di Chiara’s assist (35 ‘). In the recovery comes the Calabrian doubling with Majer, who uses another winning pass from Di Chiara to pierce Poluzzi with the right plate. Südtirol tries to react from a free kick: in the 53rd minute, Belardinelli’s header hits the crossbar. Pierozzi crowns a good performance by signing Reggina’s trio, at 61 ‘. The Calabrian domination ends with Lombardi’s poker in the 70th minute. It ends 4-0, Pippo Inzaghi smiles.

Benevento-Frosinone 2-1

The guests showed up in the 6 ‘with Caso’s fine right: careful Paleari, who rejects. Benevento takes measures with the passing of the minutes and earns a penalty kick in the 17 ‘, after being held in the area by Lucioni on Forte. The “Shark” goes from eleven meters, but the central conclusion is Turati’s gloves. The attacker is released in the 35th minute: Masciangelo’s right cross, head shot and advantage for the Caserta team. In recovery, the Pairetto referee cancels Forte’s doubling after Var control: the first fraction ends 1-0. At 59 ‘Frosinone finds the 1-1 with Garritano, precise in closing the triangulation with Rohden.

At 21 ‘chance Cosenza: Voce finds the deviation on the cross of D’Urso, but Chichizola is careful in rejecting. Pecchia’s team passes on 29 ‘with the first center in 2022 by English: the yellow-blue striker is the fastest in the area and finds the winning deviation on the corner of Mihaila with his left foot.
