PERUGIA – Master Moll Moll’s Perugia beat Avellino 2-1, making it their second win in a row and third useful result in a row. Giorgetti and Ambrogi scored, repeated after scoring the penalty goal in the last game against Cosenza.
Perugia determined and always in control of the game. At the end of the half, Barberini came close for the first time to take the lead with a superb right-footed shot that was blocked by goalkeeper Pizzella, however, they found the net with Giorgetti’s low shot to the far post. There wasn’t even time to celebrate before the red and white defense was unprepared for Amiranda’s shot, also thanks to an unfortunate deflection of a red and white defender. Draw at the half-time whistle.
In the second half Avellino remained with ten men, Gabriele received two yellow cards within four minutes. Coach Irpinia Pianese was also ruled out. The Griffins then try to take advantage but are unsuccessful. In the 41st minute, however, the “Wolves” defense finally collapses. A brilliant finish from Doctori’s edge that the goalkeeper denies, Ambrogi is the fastest of all and scores from two steps. The game gets nervous with a few too many squabbles but at the final whistle it’s a red and white celebration.
In the standings, the red and white reach 11 points and Avellino remains at 7.
