Events
Match Events
- 0' The referee blows the starting whistle. The fans are roaring. The teams are ready for the match. Genoa CFC is hosting US Lecce for another epic battle.
- 5' The referee has had an easy afternoon — neither side has been overly physical in the tackle.
- 7' A stunning finish from Antonio Sanabria — that came from absolutely nowhere!
- 12' Genoa CFC are keeping things exceptionally tight at the back. It will take something special to break them down.
- 14' A tactical swap from Genoa CFC — Antonio Barreca on, Stefano Sturaro off on 14 minutes.
- 15' A meaty challenge results in booking for Lukas Lerager on 15.
- 20' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Cristian Zapata suffering a number of foals already.
- 25' Gianluca Lapadula, a Peru , has 3 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
- 30' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 32' Gianluca Lapadula has so much to prove this time. He replaces Khouma Babacar on 32 minute.
- 35' The referee shows US Lecce player a Yellow card on 35.
- 40' The energy levels are beginning to show. Fabio Liverani might look to freshen things up shortly.

- 60' What a moment for Marco Mancosu! That strike on 60 puts his side firmly in control.
- 64' Christian Romero catches the referee's attention in entirely the wrong way. Yellow card on 64.
- 69' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Genoa CFC needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
- 74' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering US Lecce that had 190 games and scored 161 goals.
