A historic first time, the one at the Municipality of Chiavari. And unforgettable, for Entella: the first match between the Biancocelesti and Sampdoria is a triumphal derby. It ends 3-1 for Entella who makes the stadium factor count (zero defeats so far at home) and rises to 9 points in the standings. Monumental performance from Chiappella’s boys, who in addition to the three goals produced more opportunities to widen the score. And they did well to contain, at the end, the return attempt of a Samp team that immediately went gray after the poker against Pescara before the break. The Dorians remain stuck at 5 points: for now they are third from last, but the weekend could bring a worsening of the rankings. And coach Donati is now hanging by a thread.

The hosts are dangerous at the start: Karic tries first with his heel and then with the set piece, but there isn’t enough precision to break the deadlock. Samp responds in the 19th minute with Henderson: a narrowly missed shot. In the 26th minute Fumagalli’s cross becomes a shot, Ghidotti has to put it in the corner with a shot from the back. At 33′ the spark of the advantage: a soft corner for the header by Debenedetti, a former Genoa player who willingly purges his “fellow citizen” opponent. Sampdoria reaction? No, the guests hurt themselves: in the 38th minute Donati’s defense broke down and favored the counterattack by Di Mario, who was knocked out in the penalty area by Ghidotti’s exit. Colossal and inevitable penalty: Franzoni makes it 2-0 and it seems already the middle of the night for the Blucerchiati.

In the second half Samp redoes their look in the attacking midfield: Cherubini and Henderson out, Cuni and Barak in behind Coda. But the imagination (again) wears white and blue: Debenedetti tries from two steps, Fumagalli kicks on the fly risking the great play, and in both cases Ghidotti’s gloves prevent the deficit from transforming from sad to humiliating. Samp somehow remained in the game and in the final quarter of an hour they at least tried to reopen it with an episode: Barak failed, Coda scored from the edge of the box in the 81st minute, picking up a loose ball. Samp catch their breath and build an idea of ​​forcing, but after two minutes they receive the blow of the knockout. Because Entella finds the hat trick, again from an inactive ball: sloping corner for Tiritiello, 3-1 and Comunale celebrates. Virtus no longer trembles and finds, among other things, the 21st useful result in a row at home: the Comunale, in addition to witnessing a historic evening, brings good luck.
