Greek defender Charalampos Lykogiannis thought he would give his team victory by the smallest of margins (1-0, 68th) but Italian striker Roberto Piccoli played spoilsport in the 100th minute of play by converting his penalty (1-1 , 90+10e). With this draw point, French teammates RĂ©mi Oudin and Valentin Gendrey took a six-unit lead in the red zone, Bologna missing the opportunity to come back to level with Napoli, host of the interior leader this Sunday evening (8:45 p.m.).
