Chiricò stretches Juve U23, Padova sees the semifinal
A flash from Chiricò is enough for Padova to pass 1-0 on the Juventus U23 field, addressing in an important way the fourth in question: in the home return, even a short knockout will be enough for the biancoscudati to access the semifinalsby virtue of the best position in the season.
Juve dangerous especially in the first half: Nicolussi Caviglia for Iocolano, whose pocket is imprecise and does not allow Da Graca to strike. The action continues and Soulè tries to turn from the outside, Donnarumma touches her in the corner. For Padova, the Dezi-Valentini lead action frees in the Ceravolo area, which devours it by loading the close wheel high. So, at the end of the fraction, the most important Juventus occasion: shore of Da Graca for Iocolano which charges first intention and hits the full pole.
The recovery is a Chirico show, protagonist in all the dangerous actions of the Venetians. On one of his lunges in the wing with a cross, De Winter misses the closure and opens the door to Ceravolo, who, once again, lacks the readiness to hurt. Chiricò always goes with his head and runs into Anzolin’s arm – the referee, amid the red and white protests, lets it go – and then crosses for Della Latta, who is also wasted in feeding on the bottom.
Until, after so many mistakes, the parts are reversed and the game succeeds: Ceravolo snaps at Dezi’s invitation and puts in, where Chirico the law better than Anzolin and crosses for the advantage of Padova. Juve’s response not received and on the only hot situation Valentini is flawless in stopping Da Graca. In the recovery Chiricò has another good ball to close the question with a game to spare, but his left does not turn enough and Juve can still dream of a complicated but not impossible comeback.
