Setback for Cagliari’s Primavera, who lose 1-0 at home to Hellas Verona with a goal by Vermesan in the 92nd minute, just before the final whistle.
Under the overcast sky of the Crai Sport Center, the match is hard-fought but lacks excitement. Lots of running, duels, but few shots on goal. Bolzan tries with a shot over the bar, and Sulev with a free kick wide from thirty meters, while Hellas threatens with Agbonifo, but Iliev is there to control as the ball goes wide.
The second half follows the same script, with substitutions failing to change the course of the match, which remains intense but lacking any noteworthy shots. In the final stages, it’s the Rossoblù who come closest to scoring, with Kingstone and Vinciguerra linking up but unable to finish, Grandu on the left and Simonetta free in the midfield creating danger. In the dying moments, the heartbreak: a loose ball on the edge of the area, no one clears, Vermesan turns with his right foot and finds the bottom corner. That’s how it ends.
