The day after Frosinone’s big victory against Salernitana, Monza and Lecce opened the ball this Saturday, as part of the 34th day of Serie A. 11th at kick-off, the Lombard club intended to break with this bad series of 3 defeats and 1 draw in their last 4 league matches against an opponent also looking for points.

If Lecce had to wait for added time in the second half to break the deadlock thanks to Nikola Krstovic (1-0, 90th+2), we should not underestimate the reaction capacity of Monza who snatched the point from the draw in the final seconds through Matteo Pessina (1-1, 90th+6). In the ranking, the positions remain unchanged. Having a comfortable mattress ten points ahead of the 18th place occupied by Udinese, Lecce nevertheless seems to have the retention in its pocket.
