The afternoon of Serie A offered a double scoreless draw, marked by the offensive impotence of the four competing teams. In Pisa, the Tuscans and Hellas Verona neutralized each other (0-0) at the end of a choppy match with few clear chances. The only thrill came just before the break, when Verona thought they had obtained a penalty for contact on Frese, finally canceled by the VAR in the 45th + 3. This point does not help anyone: the Venetians remain 17th, while Pisa remains stuck in 19th position.

Same scenario in Lecce, where the locals and Sassuolo failed to shake the net (0-0). Despite a few attempts, the Salentins came up against the defensive solidity of the Neroverdi, who managed without really being dangerous. This sharing of points keeps Lecce in the middle of the table (14th), while Sassuolo, higher ranked, remains 8th but sees its momentum slowed.
