Giampaolo's first victory on the Torino bench comes only in extra time: 3-1 at Lecce and the Coppa Italia round passed after a particularly painful match.
The Salento took the lead with Stepinski, put under the grenade, without Belotti and Sirigu (not called up) and with a team of second lines, and also resist Lyanco's equalizer at the end of the first half.
Then, in extra time, Toro exploits the mistakes of the Giallorossi: first Rossettini messes up and Verdi scores the penalty of overtaking, then the former Napoli always takes advantage of a restart born on a wasted free-kick from Corini's formation and signs the final 3-1.
Now the grenades will face the Virtus Entella.
Cagliari-Cremonese 1-0, Sardinians ahead
- Cagliari wins again and goes on in the Italian Cup. Against the Cremonese of the former Bisoli the goal was decisive in the 24th minute of the second half by Faragó, good at resolving a beat and beat in front of Volpe with a strong and tense right-foot. Cremonese out, but he made a great impression: two poles and many interventions by Vicar, best in the field of the hosts. Cragno's deputy had to overtake in the first half on Buonaiuto's "placed" right foot and in the second half, on Crescenzi's shot. Then, again in the second half, Vicario also got help from the pole shot from outside by Nardi, as soon as he entered. At a certain point (20 ') it is a kind of shooting: Vicari para su Valeri, Buonaiuto and Castagnetti. And in the middle there is also a stake by Gaetano. Cagliari paid for Di Francesco's "change everything" also in terms of clearness of the maneuver and in the development of attacking actions. With Marin the only survivor of the initial formation sided with Crotone. In the first half two headers from Pavoletti and an opportunity wasted by the Tramoni course on an assist from Ounas. In the second half only a flash of Ounas himself with the first intervention of the match. The difference in these cases is who is colder in front of the goalkeeper. And, in the 24th minute, here is Faragó's winning conclusion. In the final, the big rossoblu also inside, from Rog to Joao Pedro: Cagliari eliminates the risks and the result does not change.
