The 2022 of the San Marino Academy starts in the best way, which redeems the undeserved defeat of Ravenna in the first round, making the return derby its own. Performance of great personality for the girls of Alain Conte, skilled in managing possession and pace of the race, suffering sporadically in the first half and thanking the upright in the second half. Woods evenly distributed, considering Jansen’s cross at half an hour, unlike the corners: ten for the Titanas, demonstrating the great presence of the Giallorossi half.
In the first five minutes, the Academy goes to the flag three times and on every occasion it becomes dangerous: first with Alborghetti, who kicks just off with Baldini to correct the net. Then the same striker from Romagna tries on the fly with no luck, while Martina Piazza – back from the first minute in the league, after the title in the Italian Cup with Inter – central kicks in the middle of the sixth minute.
Ravenna replies with the escape in the open field of Burbassi, who controls badly and drags the ball to the bottom after beating the offside line. It will be a recurring theme in guest offensive maneuvers. On the opposite side, Barbieri steals the ball on twenty meters and favors Fusar Poli’s imprecise right-foot. Ricci plays it on the counterattack and Ravenna almost misses the goal with Burbassi, set in motion by the wrong control of Distefano: the left-handed cross shot goes off on the bottom.
Rather lively Alborghetti, who jumps off Raggi and unloads for Barbieri, whose shot with a sure shot crashes on a pinball machine of legs. The high blood pressure works and the Academy returns to enjoy extra possession at half an hour when Alborghetti intercepts and suggests to the limit for Jansen. The Dutchman, with freedom, hits the crossbar right on the beaten Vicenzi: Baldini also anticipates Brambilla on the rejection of the wood, but sends out.
Final apprehension for the Titans, who get into trouble on long and legible casts. A couple of uncertainties by Kiamou and Montalti, first force Alessia Piazza to courageously go out on Distefano’s feet, then De Paoli to recognize Burbassi’s irregular position – who came to kick from a handful of meters from the big target.
In a fraction of the fraction, double opportunity for Fusar Poli: on both occasions, the right ends high. Without appeal the first, on a great finish by Baldini, with a deviation in the corner of the second. Goals clean at half-time and in that quarter of an hour Conte’s winning move matures. Massa takes over Alborghetti: a choice that will pay dividends in less than five minutes. Previously, double opportunity for the advantage: left to turn out by a whisker and dirty conclusion by Barbieri, who does not punish the mistake in the construction of the guests. Who capitulate at 50 ‘, when Massa – served with his back to the goal from a lineout – misses the doubling with a nice play of sole and brush on the first post where Barbieri is quick and punctual in the advance of head which is worth the 1- 0 with a special dedication addressed to the companies out due to injury: Micciarelli and Nozzi.
Sparkling recovery, with Massa often the protagonist. As in the 54th minute, when his descent leads to a deflected cross-shot that displaces Vicenzi and ends on the outside of the net. Shortly after Ravenna cursed fate with Benedetti, who comes to tip from the edge to hit the post with Alessia Piazza out of action. In the middle of the fraction Menin is back on the field, who detects Jansen. However, it was Ravenna that came close to scoring, with the disputed free-kick from Ligi who crossed the barrier and slipped a palm beside the corner of the goalposts.
