After Monza’s victory (3-1) at the start of the day, the 11th day of Serie A continued this Sunday with a poster pitting Cagliari against Genoa. At the Unipol Domus, the Grifone were hoping for a second success in a row after their victory against Salernitana last weekend. For their part, Cagliari, nineteenth at kick-off but undefeated over the last two days, wanted to continue their good momentum to get out of the red zone.

If the first period resulted in a sad 0-0, the locals took the advantage after returning from the locker room thanks to new arrival Nicolas Viola (1-0, 48th). Master of possession but too unrealistic offensively, Genoa would nevertheless react a few moments later thanks to Albert Gudmundsson (1-1, 51st). Ultimately, Claudio Ranieri’s coaching would pay off. Another entrant at the break, Gabriele Zappa released his team after the hour mark (2-1, 69th). With this victory (2-1), Cagliairi moves up to 17th place. Genoa is 15th.
