Cagliari could have been saved today, winning in Como, instead they suffer another defeat with a very negative performance: it is the Lariani - at the sixth consecutive success - who impose themselves with a score of 3-1. Adopo is not enough, rossoblù already behind from the interval.

A shot by Perrone put into a corner by Caprile is the first shot on target of the match, it comes in the 6th minute. The corner is taken short and badly, Cagliari restarts on the counterattack with Luvumbo who exchanges with Makoumbou and from the left serves Viola into the area, whose left-footed cross is touched by Reina even if the referee does not give the corner .

For twenty minutes Como is almost exclusively in possession, even if they don't create much and the balls arrive predictably in the area. Then, in the 22nd minute, Cagliari takes the lead: Luvumbo crosses from the edge, Viola doesn't get there but the action is repeated by Zortea, who serves Adopo on the right for a cross shot that passes under Reina's body . The attempt at a save by the returning Spanish goalkeeper is terrible, with the ball slowly entering the net and being touched by Piccoli when it was already in. Adopo's first goal of the season.

Como reacts, at 28' ball in the area with first attempt by the former Goldaniga and second by Kempf blocked by Augello. Then corner taken with a scheme outside the area for Nico Paz, volley and Caprile blocks. At 33' great ball by Viola for Piccoli, immediate left foot and this time Reina is ready. But Como equalizes at 40', with a great central pass by Perrone for Caqueret and touch under to go over Caprile . The assistant signals offside, but it is Zappa who makes his position regular: the check at the VAR validates the 1-1.

In the second of three minutes of injury time in the first half, the score was 2-1: a spectacular curling right-footer from Strefezza from the left side, the post and the goal . Caprile was unstoppable and with this result we went to half-time. The second half started with no changes, Viola immediately had a chance on a free kick (47') but his shot from the edge was just over. Piccoli had a golden opportunity in the 57th minute, on a cross from the left by Luvumbo, he headed into the six-yard box but sent it wide.

At the hour mark, five substitutions all at once: Felici and Deiola for Cagliari for Zappa and Viola, Cutrone, Van der Brempt and Engelhardt for Como for Douvikas, Vojvoda and Caqueret. Luvumbo moves to the right and is immediately active, at 65' from the wing he enters the area and his left-footed shot is just high . At 73' Pavoletti comes in (immediately cautioned, he was on a warning) for Adopo, who comes off injured.

When Nicola is about to send in Marin and Gaetano, who then come in anyway for Makoumbou and Luvumbo, Cagliari is once again penetrated centrally: Nico Paz serves Cutrone, cross shot and 3-1 in the 77th minute . The assistant raises the flag and, as at 1-1, the VAR denies validating the goal. The rossoblù defense, without Luperto on the bench because he is not at his best as well as Mina, who continues to have problems and in the 80th minute only Caprile prevents Cutrone from scoring a brace, served by Fadera on the left.

Marin had a good chance to reopen the match, freed by a rebound on the right in the area, but he missed the shot that went wide. In the long recovery, six minutes, Nico Paz almost hit the crossbar with a splendid free kick. And in the 95th minute Piccoli completed his nightmare afternoon by failing to deflect a cross from Zortea to the far post .
