Bologna deserves the victory, Cagliari beaten 1-0 and eliminated
The goal from a header by the former Lykogiannis with an innocent deviation by Obert
Cagliari's adventure in the Italian Cup stops in Bologna. At Dall'Ara it ends 1-0 for the hosts and the decision is an own goal by Obert from a header by the former Lykogiannis.
An experimental Cagliari, the one deployed at the start by Liverani, with Aresti in goal, Zappa, Obert, Capradossi and Barreca in defense, Lella, Viola and Kourfalidis in the middle, Pereiro (with the captain's armband), Lapadula and Millico in front.
I start at a small trot. Bologna starts attacking, but Aresti always keeps a good watch. In the first half hour, Cagliari can only be seen with two long-distance attempts by Barreca and Kourfalidis that go far beyond.
At 38 ', surprisingly, Cagliari close to the advantage: left from the edge of Barreca and the ball that stops on the crossbar of Bardi. From one thrill to another, at 39 'Schouten shoves Aresti, but the referee Camplone cancels for offside signaled by the Var. And the first half ends up 0-0.
In the second half, Thiago Motta immediately threw in Orsolini, Soriano and Arnautovic. Bologna takes the field, but Aresti must never go beyond ordinary administration. Pavoletti and Dossena enter for Lapadula and Capradossi, but at 24 ', after a save by the goalkeeper on Soriano, the hosts pass: corner from the right, head of the former Lykogiannis and decisive touch from Obert.
In the end, also Luvumbo and Cavuoti for the impalpable Pereiro and Viola, but the only starting point is a cross-shot by Zappa thwarted by Bardi. It ends with Bologna forward and in full control for the final 0. The Cagliari Cup ends here, for the Emilians in the second round there will be Lazio.
