Dzeko scores, Ndoye worry and Cancellieri shines: friendly match roundup 👀
Today, six clubs from our championship played, and all of them achieved a win that gives them confidence.
Bologna-Virtus Verona (7-0)
Bologna overwhelmed Virtus Verona 7-0 in their second summer friendly. A match with no history, already closed in the first half with the goals of Lucumí (33′), Orsolini (36′), and Ferguson (40′). In the second half, El Azzouzi scored the fourth goal, followed by a gem from Immobile (78′), a beautiful free kick from Holm (81′), and the final seal from Dominguez in stoppage time.
However, what sparked discussion was Lodovici's harsh intervention on Dan Ndoye in the early minutes. Hit on his left foot, the Swiss winger left the field limping and upset, heading directly to the locker room (HERE ARE THE DETAILS OF THE INJURY).
Fiorentina-Fiorentina U20 (8-0)
Good seasonal debut for Stefano Pioli's Fiorentina, who easily beat the Primavera team 8-0 in their first summer friendly. A useful test to accumulate minutes and start experimenting with the first tactical solutions in view of the new season.
Dodô stood out, scoring the first goal and appearing in great condition. First Viola goal, instead, for Dzeko, who scored the third goal after Kean's double. In the second half, several young players stood out, including Jacopo Fazzini: goal, assist, and a lot of personality for him, and Ndour, who scored a hat-trick.
Lazio-Lazio U20 (3-0)
Good seasonal debut for Sarri's Lazio, who beat the Primavera 3-0 in the first test at Formello. Pedro unlocked the match at 42' with his classic left-footed shot on Noslin's assist, closing a first half without great emotions.
In the second half, Cancellieri shone with a great goal from outside at 68', while Basic scored the third goal at 90' on Belahyane's invitation. A useful friendly to verify the condition and start testing the mechanisms in view of the new season.
Successes also for Parma, Pisa, and Verona
Not only Serie A big teams. Today, three other Serie A teams took to the field, and all of them found success. Cuesta's Parma won 3-2 against the Under 20 team, while Verona and Pisa thrashed Rovereto (9-0) and the Valle d'Aosta representative team (7-0), respectively.
