REGGIO EMILIA (ITALPRESS) – Sassuolo regains its victory after almost two months. Fabio Grosso’s boys are over 1-0 Cremonese in the Mapei Stadium match, valid for the twenty-second Serie A day 2025/2026. Start of perfect race by the hosts who, after just 3′, pass in advantage with the gambian attacker: the former Como takes advantage of a bad rejected by Audero and deposits the ball at the bottom of the sack. The greyhounds are not looking and immediately try to react with Vardy, who at 14′ takes advantage of a Walukiewicz mistake to kick the door, but Muric is not surprised. At 23′ there are other bad news for Davide Nicola, who lost again due to injury Collocolo, just returned after four months of stop: in his place Zerbin enters. Despite a shock start, guests don’t break down and keep looking for the tie: to the 34′ Bonazzoli tries a shot from the limit, but it turns out little on the bottom. At the end of the 2′ recovery, rest on the part of 1-0.
In the film Nicola chooses to deploy a Cremonese with greater offensive traction, including Johnsen, but to make himself more dangerous is always Sassuolo. At 55′ Moro receives ball from a very active Laurienté and kicks towards the door, touching the doubling. The turn of replacements carried out by both coaches breaks the rhythm of a second time already in itself little sparkling. At 70′, however, the usual Laurienté rekindles the light and tries directly on football of punishment, finding a great response from Audero. In the final game the Lombards increase the forcing to go hunting for the tie, while the blackouts go very close to 2-0 in full recovery, hitting a crossing with Pierini. Collu’s triple whistle marks the 1-0 of the Grosso group, which returns to victory after almost two months (the last on December 6 against Fiorentina). On the other hand, the Greyhoids continue their fasting that lasts from December 7th. As a result of this success, Sassuolo climbs to 26 points in the standings and separates Cremonese, which remains at 23. The Emilians will return to the field Saturday at 3 pm to face Pisa at the Garibaldi Arena, while the Lombards Sunday 1 February will host Inter at the Zini.
