Serie A: Bologna escapes at the end of the match against Genoa

Thiago Motta’s Bologna is struggling this holiday season. Well placed to qualify for the Champions League, Bologna suffered a heavy defeat on Udinese the previous day (0-3). We therefore had to pull ourselves together at home for the reception of Genoa, during the 19th day of Serie A. But it was complicated for Bologna, quickly trailing after Gudmundsson’s opening at the start of the game (1-0, 20th ).

Despite several opportunities, including a goal refused by the VAR at the end of the match (77th), Bologna failed to come back. But at the end of added time, De Silvestri allowed Thiago Motta’s team to equalize (1-1, 90th + 6). A disillusionment for the Genoa team, which remains in 12th place. For their part, the Rossoblù are stagnating in 5th place, but with a point behind and a game more than Fiorentina.
