goals from Ciurria and Carlos Augusto – Corriere.it

A great goal by the former Ciurria and a goal in the final by Carlos Augusto allow Monza to win at the home of Spezia, strong-willed but increasingly in trouble in the standings after Lecce’s victory in the first advance of the 32nd day of Serie A.

The home team got off to a very good start and had a golden opportunity in the 19th minute with Kovalenko squandering, Palladino’s team moved on to their first real offensive sortie: in the 21st minute Colpani touched Ciurria on the edge of the area, the winger red and white doesn’t think twice and finds the far post with a great left foot that leaves no way out for Dragowski. In the first half, the bianconeri get themselves another excellent chance with Amian, who deflects his header from a few steps away from a corner, while in the final the guests legitimize the advantage with two more chances: good Dragowski to say no to both Dany Mota than to Carlos Augusto.

In the second half, after an action by the Brianza players who came close to doubling (Rovella looks for Colpani with a lob and Kovalenko, to intervene, risks mocking Dragowski: the Pole is feline in removing the ball from under the crossbar), Spezia has the opportunity of the draw, again on a rebound on Esposito’s cross-shot: Di Gregorio manages to block.

Time passes quickly for Spice, which creates but is imprecise. In the 79th minute Esposito hits a free-kick with his right foot and misses the crossbar by very little, Agudelo has a left-footed opportunity in the 87th minute but kicks high. Thus, on the counterattack, with assists from Machin Carlos Augusto, he doubles and allows the Brianza side to be certain of reaching Bologna and moving to the left column of the standings.
