“Incredible match: Genoa dominates, Palermo wins” is the name of the Genoa edition Republic on newsstands today.
The first defeat of the season for Genoa, who lose in Palermo after dominating but paying the price for many mistakes in front of the net. The numbers in this case speak for themselves and speak of an incredible performance: Genoa dominates in ball possession 65% to 35%, in 13-to-10 withdrawals, in assists, almost double the hosts and in corners, and yet you have to bow to Brunori’s goal , because after all, football is a simple sport where it is more important to score a goal than rivals. But it was well known that it would not be an easy match and yet the Rossoblu who finished with five forwards (Koda, Ekuban, Puskas, Yalcin and Aramu) 8 chances were not enough, plus a completely canceled offside goal recovery ., not only win, but not even a draw.
After all, less than three minutes later, more than 400 fans who arrived at Barbera already realized that, perhaps, the evening would not be the best. Ekubana, face to face with Pigliacelli, grossly erred in what seemed to be a goal already scored. Blessin’s team continued to polish the game but suffered from the speed of Corini’s defenders, who counterattacked skillfully, making it difficult last night for a Rossoblu defense that was not flawless. So he risked suffering because of the naivete of Bani, from whom Brunori stole the ball, a cross through the center and Di Mariano, whom he put aside only in a small area. Even inactive balls were not enough for Badel and his teammates to hit the Rosanero.
Slightly exploited corners, slightly better punishments with Pazhak, who twice bothered the home goalkeeper, rejected well on the first one, slightly higher on the second one. In fact, the match was in the hands of Genoa, but Palermo was cynical and in the 33rd minute a good shot by Brunori with an attentive Martinez, and two minutes later the Rossoblu goalkeeper confirmed his entry to Elia. And in the final of the first half, another goal for Genoa with Portanova, not his best game, fortunately in this case, on the pitch of Jagello, the Pole tried to put it in the bottom corner, but Pigliacelli managed to beat it into the corner with his fingertips.
