Como-Genoa 1-1: goal by Nico Paz, Ekuban

It seemed done. Nico Paz had made waves again by the lake. His pearl, not at all rare given the frequency with which he churns out, this time, however he does not give the three points to the Como who would be worth 5th place on par with Rome and Milan. A masterpiece that arises from an turn just outside the area who unbalances the three defenders who were on him, getting the space necessary to send a large hit in the corner. Genoa who earns the peer with a resumption of stubborn even if the Ekuban goal only arrives at 92 ‘after the red headed for Ramòn a moment before and without scoring chances in the 45’ previous.

The usual Nico

–

Fabregas starts with Morata in the center of the attack and Caqueret in midfield, Vieira (who was a teammate at the Arsenal of the Coach of Como), hunting for the first goal in the championship, focuses on Colombo, owner Sabelli, on the bench Stanciu and Valentin Carboni. The first thrill invokes him involuntarily Morata with a tackle with a decisive half of the field that makes the ball splashes towards the door of Butez, forced to get back quickly to avoid a sensational own goal. Nico Paz is from another planet: at 13 ‘he receives the ball, he has a walk three opponents with a sudden steering, then loads the left and ships the ball in the corner. Ligurian all too aggressive, with 7 fouls committed in less than 20 ‘. In fact, the yellow in Ostigard arrives for a hard entry on Morata. Genoa’s reaction is shy and does not bring dangers from the parts of Butez. At half an hour Como one step away from doubling: Vojvoda’s launch for Kuhn who only arrives in front of Leali, the goalkeeper replies the shot and Morata with an empty goal puts to the side. At 34 ‘first ring of the Griffin: Colombo receives in the area from Malinovskyi but his conclusion is rejected by Butez, as well as the subsequent ones of Ellertsson and Masini from the defense Comasca. Morata is still to fail the doubling on Kuhn’s launch, with wide shot. At rest comfortablely ahead.

Genoa comes out aggressive from the changing rooms and puts Como in difficulty who struggles to start again with the construction from the bottom. The Griffin raises the center of gravity but it is a sterile domain that of the guests without a real point of reference in the area. After 12 ‘Vieira inserts Messias for Sabelli with Norton-Cuffy down. At 65 ‘Fabregas replies with Perrone and Douvikas instead of Morata and Cunha. Como close to the encore on Vojvoda’s shot too central that Leali rejects. For the quarter of an hour, Vieira changes Malinovskyi and Ellertsson by inserting Ekuban and Valentin Carboni. Lariana against theme with Addai and Sergi Roberto for Kuhn and Caquret. Fabregas be careful to defend the advantage and his do it with great order, not risking anything. Colombo gives his place to Ekhator at 80 ‘, Jesus Rodriguez shortly after in Baturina. Genoa continues to press, conquers corners (7-1) but never concludes on goal. Como who remains in 10 to 2 ‘from the end for a decisive entry of Ramòn on Messias after a punishment quickly beaten by the Griffin and that the referee was about to repeat. Expulsion confirmed then by the Var. We start again and Genoa equalized. Insertion of Norton-Cuffy, a truck by Sergi Roberto, on the ball he throws Ekuban who marks the equal to 92 ‘. The first seasonal network of the Griffin is worth a golden point. For Como many regrets.
