Verdicts postponed to the last day. In the southern group Catanzaro and Avellino run and overtake Palermo
Sudtirol-Padova and beyond. Behind the duelists for the top in Group A third place certainly for Feralpisalò after the success of Piacenza (2-0, Miracoli and Corrado, hosts penalized by Cesarini’s red after 20 ‘). Renate comes off and remains in fourth place, reassembled at home by Pergolettese (2-1, Mazzarani and Moreo reply to Possenti) who thus celebrates direct salvation with one day in advance. Three sprint for fifth place, with a trio at 55: only one point for Triestina in the trip to the Giana field (1-1, Vono on a penalty replies to the advantage of host Petrella), same result for Lecco that is made reach from Seregno (1-1, Jimenez replies to Nepi), while Pro Vercelli wins – and hooks the other two contenders, 2-1 in comeback at Fiorenzuola with Cristini and Vitale overturning Giani’s goal arrived by exploiting an error from postponement of goalkeeper Rizzo. Already certain of the playoffs, Juventus U23 goes ahead in Trento (in numerical superiority) with the punishment of Soulé but is joined by Izzillo. In full race for the last playoff places, AlbinoLeffe victorious in Legnago (1-3, Galeandro, Gusu and Manconi, shortens Juanito Gomez too late) and the Pro Patria that leaves Mantova in trouble (2-1, double by Stanzani, then Monachello). All to decipher the lower area of the ranking. Legnago, last, remains attached only to a thread of hope: he will have to beat Juventus U23 in Alessandria and hope for good news from the other fields. By winning in Verona against Virtus, Pro Sesto has secured a place in the playout and is still holding Gigi Fresco’s team that will challenge Padua in suspense (albeit well positioned at 42). All the verdicts will come in the last 90 ‘.
GROUP C
–
Equal for Bari in Taranto (0-0) in a derby between teams without goals. Instead, the fight for second place lights up, with the back and forth between Catanzaro and Avellino who travel on equal points (and Palermo, one point behind, at rest since they would have had to face Catania excluded). At Ceravolo, Vivarini’s team – which is ahead in direct clashes, therefore mistress of its destiny – extends the already saved Campobasso (3-0) with the second consecutive brace from Iemmello and the trio of Bombagi. Result similar to Partenio-Lombardi, where Avellino has no difficulty against Vibonese (3-1, Plescia, Aloi and Di Gaudio, goal of the Curiale flag) condemning the Calabrians to arithmetic relegation. In Francavilla (2-2, Taurino’s team hasn’t won for almost two months) Foggia avoids the second defeat in five days in the final: Perez responds to Merola, then Maiorino’s counter-overtake and Garofalo’s final equal. Zeman will have to lock down the playoffs on the last day, as a former player, at Zaccheria against Avellino. Big steps towards the post season for Turris (2-1 at Franco Scoglio in Messina, Giannone and Leonetti, then shortens Russo) and for Picerno, who lands the shot at Paganese’s home (3-2) with the goals of the former Reginaldo and Paris. Without goals Latina-Monopoli and Fidelis Andria-Monterosi, a point that is valid for the Lazio freshman the historic landing in the playoffs in the first year among the professionals. All defined in the lowest positions: except for Potenza arithmetically (1-1 at home with Juve Stabia), the only playout will be Paganese-Fidelis Andria with the return to Puglia at the home of the best placed team.
