Beukema and a brace from Orsolini pave the way for Bologna towards a round 4-0 win over Lecce.

And if the number 7 reaches 8 goals in the championship, joining Zirkzee in the role of top scorer of the team, Odgaard gives himself his first goal in the rossoblù.

Thiago Motta's team responds to Fiorentina and continues their pursuit of Europe, four days after the direct match with the Viola.

Second consecutive home win for Motta's team, who, faced with a Lecce team looking for their first away win of the season, produced the most convincing first half of the season.

Second consecutive match, however, with 4 goals to his credit, after the success (4-2) against Sassuolo Beukema unlocks the match with the first goal in the championship, with a tap in that follows Zirkzee's volley from the corner Orsolini after just 5 minutes, and Orsolini doubles 22 minutes later, taking advantage of Falcone's second uncertainty of the day.

Before and after, many opportunities for a growing Bologna, and some uncertainty being built from below that risks ruining everything: good for the rossoblù that Krstovic doesn't take advantage of a missed back pass by Frueler face to face with Skorupski and that the goalkeeper put a patch on Kaba's insertion header, on Gallo's cross, between 19 and 22', when Bologna takes their foot off the accelerator and gives something away.

But when they press, Bologna collects opportunities, with 5 conclusions in the first quarter of an hour, where Saelemaekers comes close to scoring on three occasions and Zirkzee wastes a good assist from Ferguson and comes close to the post after a personal action.

The home team started off aggressively, with Zirkzee inspiring and Orsolini and Saelemaekers repeatedly breaking down the flanks and then looking for the insertions of Ferguson and Fabbian.

Bologna beautiful and practical, which finds the double.

Nice and solid, with Kristiansen and Posch limiting D'Aversa's flanks.

The Salento coach tries to take cover at half-time, inserting Blin for Kaba and Dorgu for Gallo, in an attempt to shake up the team and look for solidity, but the second half begins as the match began: with Bologna attacking and with Orsolini put the ball in the seven on Calafiori's assist, after a full-court descent from the rossoblù centre-back.

There's no more match, also because in the second half Ferguson and co didn't make mistakes like in the first 45 minutes.

After an hour of the match, Motta removed Zirkzee, Orsolini, Posch and Freuler with a clear intention of saving cards and strength for Wednesday's match with Fiorentina.

The bad news comes from Calafiori's exit ten minutes from the end, keeping his right thigh and knee to be evaluated.

The last happy news instead comes from Odgaard, who takes over and takes advantage of a bad mistake in midfield by Baschirotto, to fly towards his first goal for the rossoblù and the final 4-0.

Bologna wins and convinces once again: and on Wednesday it will be a Champions League play-off against Fiorentina.
