Romagnoli slipped to seven points from the leaders. Diana’s team is getting closer to Serie B
In the big match at Manuzzi, in front of almost 18,000 spectators – including the new president of Lega Pro, Matteo Marani – Reggiana landed an external strike of significant importance in terms of direct promotion.
Aimo Diana’s team beat Cesena 2-1 and thus pushes them back to 7 points behind, consolidating their leadership ten days from the end. The balance broke five minutes before the break: Kabashi, from the right, was able to calibrate a precise left-footed cross which triggered Nardi’s header (third goal of the season).
RECOVERY
—
Driven by the Curva Mare – which dedicated a banner to Marco Pantani – Cesena tried to react in the second half: the main occasion was Prestia’s header blocked on the ground by Venturi. However, Reggiana ended it on the counterattack, starting from a disadvantageous angle, with a sprint from Portuguese Varela who made it 2-0 6′ from the 90th minute. The goal with which Cesena shortens comes too late, in full recovery, thanks to Mustacchio. It ends with the party of 2,500 Reggio fans, at the end of a night that smacks of pushing the championship.
