Emiliani took the lead immediately after 5 ‘with Berardi, who guiltily caught the defense of the unaware grenade. At 39 ′ the guests doubled, once again with their end in the corner kick developments.

FROM – Nicola changes with respect to the match against Inter, finding Andrea Belotti from the first minute paired with Sanabria. The great news of training, as anticipated last night, is the option to use Ansaldi on the right with Murru on the left. For the rest, against Sirigu, confirmed the defensive trio formed by Izzo, Lyanco and Bremer. In the middle of the field, on the flanks of Mandragora, Sasa Lukic and the Rincón that returns. After 5 ‘Sassuolo immediately went ahead with Berardi. It all comes from a wrong opening by Bremer, so Djuricic is good at finding Caputo’s side for Berardi in the center of the area. Very bad on the occasion both the defense, deployed but caught unawares, and Sirigu, hit by a central shot and not irresistible. At 13 ′ came Toro’s response, with a left from Mandragora in an assist from Belotti rejected without too much trouble by Consiglio. Two minutes later, it is again the Sassuolo goalkeeper who saves a corner from a Murru header and then fights with Sanabria.

AL 45 ′ – The Emilians become dangerous again in the 26th minute with a restart by Berardi, contained although with some difficulty by the rear guard grenade.

Finding the duplication is therefore Sassuolo with Berardi, who hits on the fly and stabs Sirigu in the development of a corner kick: the grenade goalkeeper can still be reviewed in the circumstance, with the ball passing between his legs at the near post. Emiliani who would also have the opportunity to reach 0-3, but a recovery from Bremer is decisive to stop the counterattack of a Berardi unleashed. Then it is Belotti who tries in reverse: he had punctured Tips twice like this, this time the Sassolese goalkeeper maintains a good guard at the near post and the ball goes outside the net. The first half ends with Toro down by two goals: in the second half a clear change of pace will be necessary for Nicola’s men, who are absolutely against the wall.
