Two penalties allow Cagliari to score at Genoa's home: it's 2-2 at the Ferraris for a point that allows them to move up the standings. Piccoli equalizes in the 88th minute.
In the 5th minute, a corner for Cagliari , Marin crosses and heads Mina, asking for a handball by Thorsby. Thorsby actually touches the ball with his left arm very high: referee Sozza, called by VAR Marini, goes to the monitor and awards a penalty, converted by Marin in the 8th minute . Four minutes and Genoa equalise: on a throw-in, Pinamonti and Mina clash in the area, a good ball for Frendrup who shoots from a central position and makes it 1-1 .
Another corner for Cagliari in the 19th minute, Marin again on Mina and his header this time is high. Two minutes later the golden opportunity is for Genoa: great ball from Badelj to Miretti, control in the area and left-footed shot just wide. Zortea does very well in the challenge, preventing Thorsby from being able to deflect from two steps away. The visitors reply in the 32nd minute, with a cross from Zappa on which Leali comes out badly and Piccoli heads high.
In the second of the two minutes of injury time in the first half, Gaetano lights up: a nice right-footed shot to the far post and Leali sends it to the corner. But it is he, in the 58th minute, who misses the 1-2: Marin serves him in the area on an incorrect clearance from Leali, he controls and fires a left-footed shot that is saved by the goalkeeper who redeems his previous mistake. It is the turning point: thirty seconds pass, Luperto slides down the wing and gives Thorsby a free pass, who from the bottom on the right crosses for Miretti's winning low shot .
After five minutes (64') Obert and Pavoletti come in for Augello and Zortea, then also Makoumbou for Marin who has just been booked. But it is Miretti who invents for Pinamonti, a right-footed shot that is blocked by Sherri. The last two changes for Cagliari are Viola for Gaetano and Deiola for Adopo. Four minutes from the end, a rebound in the area, Piccoli anticipates Martín who kicks his leg: second penalty of the afternoon. Piccoli goes ahead, displacing Leali for the 2-2 in the 88th minute .
In the 92nd minute, after four minutes of injury time, a straight red card for Viola for a tackle with his left leg very high on Badelj. But, even in this case, the Var Marini intervenes because the foul is not so serious: it becomes yellow. On the last ball, a shot by Vitinha that ricochets onto Viola's arm in the area, protests from Genoa but it is involuntary and it ends 2-2.
