MODENA Three months later, Modena regained home success and scuttled an impalpable and increasingly last Cosenza. For a while he yawned at the “Braglia”, without opportunities and without a game. In the second half Tesser removes his three apathetic offensive players and puts Giovannini behind Strizzolo and Bonfanti. But it is Gagno with a double miracle who saves on Meroni. Then in the final, with the first shot on goal, Modena goes through with Gerli who wedges into the box after a touch by Renzetti, then after two minutes Giovannini steals the ball and kicks from inside the area, deflection by Vaisanen and beaten Micai. With two shots an ugly but effective Modena wins and rises to -1 from the playoff zone. Cosenza, despite a gritty performance in front of nearly 700 loyal Rossoblù fans, once again proved to be ineffective in the offensive phase with just one shot on goal throughout the match. At this point, a miracle will be needed to achieve salvation.
