League Play-Off

Quercioli
Spectators: 35 (Terracing: 27, Seating: 8, VIP seats: 0) The supporters of Rozzano FC booed when Quercioli was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 4 match minutes in a wonderful position. Aldo Frasca didn't get a good kick on the ball. Diego Piola, 5 minutes into the match, dribbled the ball up the side of the field and decided to take a long shot at the goal. Unfortunately, the ball was poorly hit and landed closer to the corner than to the goal. After 6 played minutes Quercioli got a freekick which was hit by Alex Di Mario. 7 minutes into the match, Dino Di Fabio notched a goal, 0-1, to the right of Quercioli's Cristiano Pavlu. Cristiano Pavlu was clearly disgusted with the effort of the defense and let the defenders know about it. Franco Spiazzi's late challenge caught a Rozzano FC's player on the shin and left him crawling around in pain. The referee blew his whistle and produced the yellow card.

A collision led to Quercioli getting a freekick after 47 minutes play. Fabiano Caneva hit a great ball. Achille Morini struck a weak shot in the 48th minute.
