Defeat in the midweek round for Cagliari's Primavera team who, at the Luigi Berlusconi Sports Centre , were beaten 2-1 by Monza .
A match with a somewhat slow pace in the first 25 minutes of play where the only action worth highlighting was Berretta 's cross-shot from a free kick from a tight angle, an attentive Iliev punched it away.
The match becomes more interesting from the 26th minute when Simonetta , from the edge of the area, tries to worry Vailati who clears. On the rebound Arba crosses into the center of the area where Bolzan fails to tap in. In the 33rd minute Simonetta is once again the protagonist with a beautiful free kick, Vailati denies him again and on the tap-in Marini wastes a golden opportunity from a few steps away. In the 40th minute the episode that unlocks the match: contact in the rossoblù area between Simonetta and Longhi and for the referee there is no doubt, it is a penalty. Domanico steps up to the spot, Iliev senses the corner but fails to save the result and Monza takes the lead.
In the second half, Pisacane 's boys started off strong, looking for the equaliser. In the 50th minute, a beautiful free kick by Marcolini , the opposing goalkeeper lowered the shutter once again. In the 54th minute, following a corner kick for the Brianza team, Iliev performed a miracle on a header by Postiglione . A minute later, the home team doubled their lead: once again from a corner kick, taken by Forson , Longhi scored an incredible overhead kick, putting the ball under the crossbar. The islanders felt the blow but did not give up. In the 60th minute, Liteta passed to Grandu who finished high over the crossbar. Eight minutes later, a masterly move by the Cagliari team with Marcolini passing to Simonetta , the latter passing to Achour who passed first time to Bolzan and the number 19 rossoblù, without thinking twice, shot towards the goal and beat Vailati , 2-1 and the match was back on. In the 72nd minute Achour tries with a header on a cross from Simonetta , Vailati responds present.
In the 88th minute , Cagliari had a great opportunity to bring the match to a draw: Trepy skipped past two opponents and fired a powerful shot from the edge of the penalty area, the ball grazing the post to Vailati 's left.
During the recovery the rossoblù try again and in the 95th minute Simonetta crosses in from a corner, Iliev also jumps and tries the winning header but fails to find the 2-2. A few seconds before the final whistle, Trepy is sent down in the penalty area, but for the referee Bozzetto there is no contact and he blows the final whistle, leaving the Sardinians empty-handed.
