Salernitana loses against Udinese, but Cagliari does not win. A 0-0 against Venice which for the Sardinians means relegation to Serie B.
This is the verdict of the last day of the championship, with the rossoblùs who have to say goodbye to the top flight, making mea culpa for not being able to beat the already relegated lagoon, despite the Arechi the bells have suffered 4 goals.
The defeated Salernitana in fact stops at 31 points, Cagliari earns one, but remains in third last place at 30 points , thus descending to hell together with Genoa and Venice itself .
LINE-UP - For the match against Penzo, Agostini sent Cragno, Ceppitelli, Carboni, Altare, Bellanova, Nandez, Grassi, Deiola, Lykogiannis, Joao Pedro and Pavoletti onto the field.
Soncin responds with Maenpaa, Svoboda, Caldara, Ceccaroni, Mateju, Crnigoj, Ampadu, Haps, Peretz, Cuisance and Johnsen.
Race direction entrusted to the referee Maresca .
FIRST HALF - The match begins immediately with a thrill for Cagliari: Jonhsen finds himself face to face with Cragno, but grace the rossoblùs by sending to the side .
In the first few minutes, the news of Deulofeu's goal arrives at Arechi : Udinese have the advantage against Salernitana and the Sardinian fans rejoice.
Galvanized by the news of Salerno, Cagliari then tries to get closer to Maenpaa, but without ever becoming too dangerous. The Venezia, on the other hand, plays openly, without giving up on attacking.
After half an hour Lykogiannis forfeits due to a physical problem: Rog in his place.
And during the replacement from Salerno comes another news that gives hope: the doubling of Udinese in Salerno , thanks to Nestorovski. But that's not all: at the end of time from Arechi one more comfort: Udogie scores 3 for the Friulians (and shortly after Pereyra fails the poker penalty).
On the wings of enthusiasm Cagliari raises the pace : Nandez tries, bucking on the right trying to serve Joao, with no luck. And Rog tries from a distance , but Maenpaa is good at fending off with a reflex. Then Bellanova is anticipated by a whisker and goes to the break at 0-0.
SECOND HALF - Cagliari starts immediately determined . Nandez leads a very fast counterattack, then manages to serve Rog in the area, but the action fades at the last minute.
The rossoblù try to further raise the pace . Bellanova tries, but the shot of the number 12 is deflected for a corner.
Meanwhile, Udinese drops poker in Salerno with Pereyra and everything is now only in the hands of Cagliari.
Agostini removes Deiola and Ceppitelli and inserts Marin and Lovato . At the 60th Nandez crosses for Bellanova , the number 12 tries his head, but Maenpaa is amazing and denies him the goal.
At the 77th attempt by Joao Pedro on an assist from Bellanova, but the successful shot is blocked by the Venetian defense.
A minute after the chance Venice: Peretz checks, turns and shoots from the edge, Cragno gets over the crossbar .
Agostini is played all out with 10 from the end: out of Grassi and Pavoletti, in Pereiro and Keita .
Cagliari tries to give the final assault on the door of the lagoons, looking for the goal that would mean salvation . The lagoons, however, raise a wall and every attempt is punctually countered.
Almost at the end, Pereiro shows up: left foot from the edge, but Maenpaa opposes and then Joao Pedro is anticipated for a corner before the tap-in.
Maresca grants 6 minutes of recovery .
But there is nothing to do: the goal does not arrive and at the triple whistle it is Serie B for Cagliari .
