In anticipation of Monday evening, Entella sets out and reduces (at least for one night) his gap to the summit: with the 3-0 win over Montevarchi everything ripens in the second half, Merkaj scores from the penalty spot, then the rookie Tomaselli ( came from AlbinoLeffe in January ) and Zamparo’s trio. The Ligurians extend their lead in fourth to 13 points: in fact, Ancona were stopped at 1-1 at Del Conero by Olbia, who took the lead with a fantastic half-kick from Ragatzu – the whole stadium applauded the time of the substitution – and from Simonetti assisted with an assist from Melchiorri. Fifth place and fourth win in a row for Carrarese: 2-1 comeback against Imolese, with the usual Simeri (4 goals in 5 games) in the lead, but Della Latta’s equalizer and the big plate kept coming up in the first half knocked down fly by Capello to a left-handed assist by Zanon. Gubbio-Fiorenzuola goalless, despite several chances on both fronts and the goal disallowed by Umbrians in the final (Nicolao offside). Rimini-Siena also ends 0-0: The Romagnoli haven’t won at home for over two months and in the end they make up a good point considering how risky Zaccagnos’ goal was with Meli’s three wood shots (two on the same setting, in the first half ). Lucchese returned to victory after six rounds: with a resounding 3-0 at Vis Pesaro, he prevailed after the break with Bruzzaniti, Tiritiello and a magnificent free-kick from Di Quinzio. Bitter debut for Maurizio Lauro on the Alessandria bench, beaten (1-0, the usual diakite) by Torres, who wins again in Sassari after three and a half months. In Recanatese, Sbaffo’s goal (1-0) was enough to beat Pontedera, winning three very valuable points in terms of saves.

Group C

After the Viterbo incident, Catanzaro resumed racing as he had done all season: a wild 6-0 win over Monopoli restored Vivarini’s side to their fifteenth win in as many games played at his stadium. Iemmello scored – increasing top scorer, first center after just 35 minutes of play – and Vandeputte with two braces, then also Biasci and new signing Brignola, who scored Sunday’s goal by hoisting the ball up on the run and then accidentally kicking in flight. The lead in second place remains 10 points, because Crotone – led on the bench for the first time by Lamberto Zauli – wins in Francavilla (2-1) at the end of a hard-fought game: goals all come in the second half, Cisco reacts to the guest advantage of the first D’Ursi, but then it’s Gomez from the penalty spot who decides the result (Virtus hadn’t lost at home in eight games). Only Adria (1-1) for Pescara with Giugliano: Colombo’s team finds the goal and takes the lead with Merola early in the second half, finds themselves in ten for the red light aimed at goalkeeper Plizzari and is put in the connection Sorrentino final in a scrum after developing a corner. At minus five in third place is Foggia, who have put the disappointment of the cup behind them as best they can: At Zaccheria they finished 3-0 against a blunt Juve Stabia, punctured in the second half by Costa, Ogunsey and Petermann . Avellino collapses instead, conceding five goals in the last two games: At Partenio-Lombardi, the resurgent Viterbese celebrates deservedly (2-0), thanks to two goals from centre-forward Marotta. Cerignola returns with a point from the away game in Taranto, a game without goals but in the highlights a great save by home goalkeeper Vannucchi against D’Andrea and Capuano’s protests for a contact in the area between Blondett and Rossetti that was not considered a foul was scored . Sunday smiles in Basilicata: Picerno is increasingly certain after beating Latina (1-0) in the play-off area, Golfo signed at the beginning with an assist from Ceccarelli (in the second half the guests protested about a hand touch). the area classified by Pagliai as error-free). The same result for Potenza, who, thanks to Hadziosmanovic (1-0) in the safety clash, passed Turris field, which was sent to retreat after the defeat, and consolidated Raffaele’s bench. At Franco Scoglio, Messina are denied by Fidelis Andria, who remains bottom of the table: the 0-0 remains, even after the great chance at the beginning of the second half was missed by Curiale, who could not find the empty goal from the inside area small. Back to the away win – they hadn’t since October – Gelbison, who needed only Uliano’s goal to defeat Monterosi, who ended in a double numerical inferiority.
