Gyasi sinks Venice, Spezia safety points – Sport

Spezia-beats Venice 1-0 with a goal from Gyasi in the 94th minute the chronicle

Spezia wins the clash against Venice, virtually conquers the right to play the third consecutive Serie A championship and condemns the Venetians to attempt a miraculous comeback to maintain the category. The game was blocked for a long time given the heavy stakes, resolved in the recovery from a goal by Gyasi after the changes of Thiago Motta, who reserves the starting attack for the last minutes. Previously it was prudence to hold the bank for at least an hour of play. La Spezia in the first was limited more than anything else to managing possession of the ball with the defenders, waiting for Venice to open in the pressing. But the forwards of the arancioneroverdi, now led by Bertolini on the bench due to the disqualification of Zanetti, did not allow themselves to be enticed, limiting their presence beyond the trocar a lot. On the other hand, the hosts themselves preferred the long pass towards Gyasi to the construction, in order to keep the line between midfield and defense tight, where the fast Johnsen and Okereke were ready to start on the counterattack. A conclusion on each side in the first 45 minutes: of Bastoni, walled up in the heart of the area after a bank from Maggiore, and of Aramu, capable of hitting the crossbar with a free kick from 25 meters. In the was the Venice to raise the pace, thanks to a good Okereke to get out of the suffocating marking of Erlic and Nikolaou and create space behind them for the conclusions of Ampadu, walled by Amian, and Ebuhei, blocked by Provedel. At that point Motta sniffs the wind, restructures the attack with Verde and Manaj and the music changes. La Spezia advances the center of gravity and Venezia falls back into the nightmares experienced with Sampdoria, with many errors in defense. In the decisive action, first Ebuhei, who inadvertently serves Manaj ready to shoot and then Caldara, who gets overtaken by Gyasi in an attempt to arrive first on the rebound, ending the road to a defeat that hurts morale and rankings.
