December 14, 2019Sampdoria wins the Lantern Derby thanks to Ranieri's intuition and Gabbiadini's thrust which, entering from the bench, signs the 1-0 with five minutes to go. Three very heavy points for the blucerchiati who climb to 15 (just outside the relegation zone) and leave the 'cousins' in the penultimate place (11, with the Spal a 9 still to play).

Stracittadina at home rossoblù from the calendar, Pinamonti and Sanabria the offensive references of the 3-5-2 of Thiago Motta, Ramirez behind Quaglilarella in the 4-4-1-1 of Ranieri. Show on the stands with the choreography of the curves, little to see on the pitch. Competitive tension to the stars and clashes of game to the limit, but the fear of going under wins. Careful goalkeepers in the exits, to crush the timid raid attempts. In fact, in the first half there are five total shots, all far from the goalposts. Ekdal's injury (calf problem), with the entry of Murillo, is the only news item.

Little change in the shot. Thiago Motta places Ankersen and Jagiello at half time. Audero is ready with his fists on Radovanovic's free-kick, the first shot between the goal posts. A quarter of an hour from the end Ranieri, surprisingly, takes Quagliarella and Rodriguez by Gabbiadini and Caprari. Good move because at 85 ', thanks to a serious ingenuity of Ghiglione who loses the ball in midfield, Gabbiadini just stabs Radu with a razor on the edge of the pole. The final assault of Genoa is useless, and on the contrary it is likely to suffer the second goal on the counterattack (slightly higher than Caprari's slash).
