A tie that is of little use, a 1-1 that does not allow Lecce or Venice to turn. But it certainly cannot be said that the teams have not tried to win until the end. At the final whistle almost all the players were on the ground, exhausted by fatigue. Everything happened in the second half. Di Francesco’s team went in front of a Gallo -born, the hosts remedied in the second half with a header from Baschirotto. In the end the hosts went close to victory several times, but in the end the result did not change. Lecce remains at +5 on Venice and +3 on Empoli Terz’ulz”s which, however, has yet to play.

battle

Lecce presents itself with dying Tete who wins the ballot on the left with a band. For the rest, formation confirmed with Krstovic the only focus with Pierotti on the right and Helgason midfielder. Di Francesco, on the other hand, starts with the pair of attackers Yeboah-gytkjaer, nicolussi ankle in direct and behind Marcandalli on the right instead of the injured Schingtienne. Lecce starts immediately strong, dragged by the enthusiasm of the Via del Mare: Krstovic has a good ball, then foiled by Radu. Venice tries to start again on the counterattack with Yeboah’s speed, but cannot frighten Falcone. The hosts go close to the benefit at 20 ‘: punishment from the right of Helgason, a detour of the Venetian defense and the ball that comes out slightly. Then it is Kike Perez who has a fair chance, but his header (Zerbin’s assist from right) is weak and ends up in Falcone’s arms. The game is intense and hard -fought, but apart from a couple of initiatives to the left of Mlorente, it does not produce particular jolts in the door.

emotions

In Francesco’s resumption he removes Carboni and puts Haps. The Venetians start better, with more decision and also find the goal in the 50th minute: Zerbin cut punishment from the right, Gallo intervenes in a clumsy way and slips into his own door. Giampaolo changes three men, (inside N’dri, Pierret and Berisha for Pierotti, Coulibaly and Ramadani) to try to shake his team. Which always finds a lot of difficulty in going to the conclusion, also because behind Venice it grants little. He tries from the distance, but Idzes manages to wall him. Then Lecce manages to find the inactive ball tie: Helgason’s corner kick and Beschirotto’s winning header. Lecce tries to take courage dragged by the public, but Venice has a great opportunity: Berisha’s wretched back pressing, an intercepting row but, all alone, is hypnotized by Falcone. The game does not give a moment of respite: at 79 ‘Krstovic serves n’dri who pulls a safe hit but takes the pole. Then it is still Lecce: Gaspar serves Beschitotto who tries the encore in the head, but Radu is very good at saving himself. The ending is throbbing, but the result no longer changes.
