Modena-Cagliari 2-0: Diaw and Bonfanti give Ranieri the first disappointment

The Modena imparts to Rainier the first sorrow since his return to Cagliari: in anticipation of the twenty-third day of the B series, the Emilians prevailed 2-0 at Braglia and returned to make up for it in the play-off fight, momentarily catching up on eighth place. For the rossoblu, a knockout that doesn’t change the seasonal prospects even if it leaves a little bitterness in the mouth for how it arrived: 10 against 11 from 45′ for theexpulsion of Rogappeared at least hasty, decreed by the uncertain referee Perenzoni.

The Var corrects the referee and allows Diaw to score from a penalty

After a long initial balance, the match lights up in the 23rd minute: the match director does not see a foul by Makoumbou on Falcinelli, who had anticipated it, but Nasca al Var makes up for it by inducing Rovereto’s whistle to decree the penalty. On the disk it goes Diaw who coldly scores the 7th goal in the league.

Rog sent off, Cagliari in 10 from the 45′

Cagliari reacts with pride but gives Gagno some shivers with just a couple of scrums. Things get complicated for the Sardinians in the first half stoppage time when a high-leg intervention by Rog on the ball in a tackle with Pergreffi is considered a dangerous game by Perenzoni who gets out the second yellow card for the Croatian and leaves the guests in 10.

Radunovic avoids the worst, Bonfanti closes the accounts

Ranieri tries to change something by inserting the newcomer Prelec and Lella in place of Luvumbo and Capradossi but Cagliari struggles to take the field against a Modena eager to close the accounts. Radunovic takes care of it, superlative on Giovannini, Cittadini and Tremolada to keep the match open. However, there is only one team on the pitch which, after missing the target also with Falcinelli and the former Ionita, doubles up (83′) with Bonfanti, unmarked in the area by Magnino. Modena is galvanized and in the final they also go close to the trio with Tremolada.
