Folgore held by Tre Penne, Virtus joins the top of the table

A share of the spoils at Montecchio keeps Ricci's side level with Virtus at the summit, while Tre Penne stay two points off the lead.

Folgore and Tre Penne shared the points, with a goal apiece and plenty of chances in their clash at Montecchio. The draw leaves Ricci’s side top of the table alongside Virtus, their next opponents, while Tre Penne remain two points off the summit.

After a first half that favoured Folgore, Ceccaroli struck the crossbar in the second period. Pancotti also hit the post from a free kick, before finding the breakthrough from close range after an assist from De Nicolò — his fifth goal of the season.

The response came just 78 seconds later, with an acrobatic deflection by Islamaj off Ceccaroli’s cross. Late on, Andreani flew to tip away Pancotti’s curling effort to preserve the 1-1 scoreline, handing Folgore their first draw of the campaign.

San Giovanni snapped a run of three defeats, beating Faetano 2-1 in Domagnano. After a goalless first half, D’Orsi broke the deadlock in the 56th minute from D’Angeli’s pass, and Chiaruzzi doubled the lead shortly after.

Faetano hit the post through Rivas and pulled one back in the 77th minute: Michelucci’s solo effort, finished with a shot that took a deflection off Giambalvo, made it 2-1. San Giovanni held on to the lead until the final whistle.

At Cosmos, goals from Cremonini and Tonini were enough to see off Fiorentino 2-0. Cremonini opened the scoring with an assist from Guidotti and joined his teammate at the top of the scoring charts with six goals.

Fiorentino stayed in the match thanks to saves from Benedettini, who also denied a Guidotti penalty in the 34th minute. In the 57th minute, Tonini sealed the win with a right-footed strike from the edge of the box.

Two red cards were shown late on: Sartini for a retaliatory foul on Cucchi, and Del Frari, already substituted, in the 88th minute.
