A change at the top of the Sammarinese Futsal Championship. Matchday nine brings Pennarossa their first defeat of the season and hands Murata sole leadership of the table. The Bianconeri beat Faetano 5-2 and capitalized on the Biancorossi’s slip-up, who went down 3-2 to Juvenes Dogana.
In Domagnano, Pennarossa initially appeared to have the match under control thanks to goals from Verri and Simone Celli. Juvenes Dogana responded, however, with strikes from Thomas Celli and De Angelis, levelling the score before the break. In the second half, it was Thomas Celli again who struck the decisive goal, completing the comeback.
Murata took advantage of the situation, overcoming a depleted Faetano side 5-2. After Recober’s opening goal, the Gialloblù turned the match around with Fortunati and Lago. Molinas then put the Bianconeri back in front with a brace, before goals from Mattioli and Tani sealed the result.
Folgore also secured a narrow win, edging past Virtus 2-1 thanks to a long-range strike from Ercolani with just a minute remaining. Abbrucciati had earlier put the Giallorossoneri ahead, only for Belloni to level the score in the second half.
Libertas, meanwhile, defeated San Giovanni 3-2, driven by a hat-trick from Giuccioli. The Rossoneri attempted a comeback with a brace from Bernacchia but couldn’t complete the turnaround. The Granata thus draw level with La Fiorita in third place.
A spectacular 3-3 draw unfolded between Cailungo and Tre Fiori. Trailing by three goals following a brace from Bernardi and a strike from Podeschi, the Rossoverdi staged a late comeback with goals from Antonelli, Meloni, and once again Antonelli, who struck deep into stoppage time.
Matchday nine continues on Tuesday, 10 November at 10pm with Cosmos-La Fiorita, while Tre Penne take on Fiorentino on Thursday, 12 November, also at 10pm. Both matches will be played at the Acquaviva gymnasium. Domagnano have a bye this round.
