The San Marino Academy is preparing to receive the leaders
Once again, the San Marino Academy pays dearly for its negligence, closing in a draw after the match with leaders Brescia held the ball of the game and created more than one opportunity to score. Monument to the cinema for the girls of Garavaglia, ordered in the defensive phase and very dangerous when they had the opportunity to overlook the San Marino penalty area.
So, after a couple of ball attempts on inactive and a left-handed shot off target by Massa, the Leonesse pass exactly in the middle of the first fraction advantage. Error in the control of Martina Piazza, who opens to Hjohlman’s stride, good at reaching the end and handing Ghisi a comfortable ball that the midfielder deposits behind an innocent Alessia Piazza. The Academy does not disunite and continues to play the game, while Brescia confirms with even more confidence the tactical plan of defense and restart. At 26 ‘Barbieri works a good ball on the short side of the area and operates a grazing cross that does not find deviations; on the continuation of the action we try Fusar Poli, who does not cause problems for Lonni. Brescia nearly doubled in the 35th minute, still leaning on the vivacity of Hjohlman: the swedish’s cross-shot was smashed by Alessia Piazza and on the wandering captain Brayda coordinated for the overhead kick that crashes on the post with the goalkeeper beaten. Before the break, a high free kick by Cristina Merli and a post by Alessandra Massa, good at wedging into the penalty area before crossing with the left-handed. Surgical diagonal, which nocks on the base of the wood.
In the second half Brescia is more proactive and already at 53 ‘there is work for Alessia Piazza who, after an exit, is quick to get up and closes in the corner Farina, who took over at the beginning of the second half. From the lap to the flag, Brescia hits another post, this time with Galbiati who first has to bow to Alessia Piazza’s sensational reflection and then doesn’t find enough space to inflate the bag. Having escaped the danger, the Titans start again to weave offensive maneuvers, going to the conclusion with Fusar Poli – served by an excellent Baldini. The two are also protagonists of the opportunity created in the 59th minute, when the Romagna player works a good ball on the outside and serves the former Como to the limit, which chokes the right. The tie is in the air and takes shape shortly after on the developments of a corner. Cristina Merli vanishes at the first post and Martina Piazza’s head comes out on the surge, even ahead of Lonni. First goal in the league for the defensive winger, who thus celebrates his 27th birthday in the best possible way.
Inertia, now, all San Marino. Brescia tries to lighten with Cristina Merli’s conclusion from distance, while Menin touches the sensational turnaround when he runs the 70 ‘. Kiamou’s deep throw for the captain, who holds up in the physical duel with Galbiati and gets to kick from inside the area, chipping the crossbar with a strange trajectory. He dances the third line of the Leonesse, who risk Barcella’s friendly fire. Massa tries on the next corner, but Lonni is neutralized on schedule. In the final, the San Marino Academy chases the victory at the expense of the leaders, but Conte’s girls miss the decisive blow. Which is in the strings of Fusar Poli, imprecise in the 76th minute with the right on the central exhaust, after an overwhelming personal action by Menin. The same applies to Baldini’s destroyed on the fly, Triggered by Massa. In the final season debut in the first team for Pirini, while in the recovery there are two news items. The first, unfortunately, is not sporty and refers to the terrible clash between Menin and Bertolotti, where the Lombard midfielder, who has been on the pitch for a few minutes, is the worst offender. At the very last second, however, Brescia goes one step away from the incredible victory with Farina’s cross for Luana Merli: the combination of substitutes ends with an undersized shot that has gone through the roof.
