The first minutes of the match are a real nightmare for the Sampdoria, who are two goals down within five minutes. First there is Fazio to soar with his head on a corner kick and at 6 ‘a heroic escape on the left of Ederson ends with a winning low shot: the Dorian defenders are too permissive, Emil Audero is not flawless. Thus, the race that could have been that of tranquility for Marco Giampaolo becomes a very steep climb. Fortunately for him, the team gradually recovers from the shock and the game becomes enjoyable, also because the Salernitana slows down the hammering. At half an hour, after some signs, Francesco Caputo shortens the distances with the usual nose of an area bomber using a stray ball in transit in his vicinity.

Giampaolo and Nicola draw from the bench, but the main mission of the guests remains to close themselves in order to avoid dangers. With many interruptions in the game and a fair number of fouls, in fact the game drags on until the triple whistle. To Nicola’s delight, his first success on the Salernitana bench. The Campanians thus remain at -9 from Cagliari, fourth from bottom in the standings and reference for the desperate pursuit of salvation.
