in the midweek the eighths are decided
“The first responses of the year are coming, with seven eliminations from the lot fourteen formations of the second round of the Titan Cup.
It starts from the results gained in the first leg challenges which, with the exception of a single match, travel on tracks of found equilibrium which – scores in hand – does not put any team safe. The Red pen is the only team that will be able to count on a double advantage: the 2-0 signed by Zago puts Andy Selva’s men in a position to be able to digest even a possible defeat of measure, while those of Amati – in clear recovery compared to the difficult start of season – they want to overturn the underdogs.
However, it will be necessary to wait for Wednesday evening, as Juvenes-Dogana and Pennarossa will meet at Ezio Conti di Dogana (8.45 pm) during one of the five midweek postponements. Tomorrow, in fact, we will already know two of the seven teams that – together with La Fiorita – we will find in the quarter-finals. One will emerge from the Florentine derby, finished in perfect equality in the first leg (1-1). That evening, Ben Kacem’s last goal before the injury: the Moroccan striker, who amazed and scored in this start of the season, could return to the field precisely on the occasion of the confrontation, in the expectations more balanced than they were comparisons of recent years between the two teams of the same Castle.
Domagnano favored in the other advance: the Wolves will face San Giovanni, to return to success after two consecutive defeats in the league. In the first leg, Mancini’s men imposed themselves by measure, while the San Giovanni came from a goalless draw with Cailungo. If one thing is certain, it is that Tognacci’s men can score in order to think about getting through the round, even without the contribution of Berardi – disqualified.
a condition that also unites Virtus and Cosmos. For the yellow-green ones that of goal is becoming a problem serious. Neri and his team-mates have scored only in one match in this part of the season, right in the first leg of the second round of the Titano Cup with Tre Penne. To establish themselves were the men of Ceci with the final score of 3-2, confirming that the challenges that the city club are on the field are anything but boring. For Virtus di Bizzotto, likewise, there is a goal to recover from Murata who won 2-1 in the first leg. It will not be able to dare its own contribution in this sense Nicolò Castiglioni, expelled in the match at the end of September.
They start from a situation of perfect balance the remaining two challenges. Without goals in the first leg Faetano-Cailungo, so that the match that will be played on Wednesday evening in Domagnano could be decided – and with it the passage of the turn – by the only goal on the 180 ‘. Or 210, considering that the new Coppa Titano format provides half an hour of overtime in case of perfect equality scoring between home and away, with penalties to decree the passage of the round, if necessary. Option that cannot be discarded a priori even for Folgore-Libertas, perhaps the most fascinating challenge of this midweek: Aruci and Fedeli scored in the first leg. The grenades want to redeem the defeat against Tre Penne in the last round of the championship, while Fedeli – like all the Folgore – is hunting for greater continuity of goals and results.
