Gattuso due to absences is forced to change form: space from the first minute to Ciciretti behind the returning Cerri and La Gumina.
Como’s first chance arrives in the seventh minute with Bellemo, who recovers an excellent ball in mid-field and serves Cerri, on the 27th he immediately turns to La Gumina who first tries to feed Ciciretti, but the latter is anticipated by the defender.
Perugia showed up in the 15th minute with a great double shot by De Luca, rejected first by Solini and then by a great intervention by Facchin. Perugia again, after a few minutes with a great conclusion by Beghetto, a ball that comes out very little. Hosts still dangerous in the 20 ‘but the way to the goal is blocked by a great Facchin.
Como tries to respond in the 26th minute with Nino La Gumina who, exploiting a defensive uncertainty, goes to the conclusion, Chichizola’s low-grip response arrives. Como is still growing thanks to the initiatives of Nardi and Ioannou, which create apprehension for the hosts but never reach the conclusion.
The first half thus ends on the result of 0-0.
In the second half the Lariani worry their opponents after 10 minutes of play, with Cerri who lifts a ball for Ciciretti who tries to tame the central director, but is anticipated by Chichizola.
At 64 ‘Bovolon enters for Parigini, who accuses a bit of fatigue. It is the biancoblu who unlocked the match in the 68th minute with Ciciretti who receives from Cerri, controls the dribble by taking the ball inside and concludes on the fly by beating Chichizola.
Shortly after Ciciretti’s own goal is replaced by Blanco, a few minutes pass and Alberto Cerri gives way to Gabrielloni. He can’t resist Nino La Gumina has to forfeit a back problem, Lorenzo Peli in his place.
In the final Gabrielloni served by Peli in transition is very close to doubling, thwarted only by a great intervention by Chichizola.
Como takes little risk, rejects Perugia’s advanced offensives and ends the match taking home the 3 points.
