SIROTTI MEMORIAL MATCH | CESENA FC WINS 4-1 OVER FORLÌ

Last night, the seventh edition of the “Silver Sirotti” Memorial was played against Forli at the “Tullo Morgagni” Stadium. The Bianconeri defeated Forli FC 4-1. 

The Cavalluccio took the lead after only ten minutes with Bastoni's goal from a shot just outside the box. With a corner kick from the right, the hosts' defense cleared the ball away, arriving at the box's edge where the new Cesena player volleyed a left-footed shot inside the post past the goalkeeper. 

In the 19th minute, Cesena's attack started again with Kargbo, who assisted Adamo's goal, which gave the Biaconeri a 2-0 lead. 

A minute before halftime, the Bianconeri dropped the tic-tac-toe play: Adamo drove down the right wing and sent Shpendi in deep, who, from a tough angle, put it past Martelli for Cesena's third goal. 

In the 54th minute, Forlì cut the lead, thanks to a penalty kick won by Farinelli: Macrì took the shot and beat Pisseri. 

Ten minutes from the final whistle, Varone finally flew down the right wing and found Ogunseye cutting for goal, who, with a precise tap, it past the goalkeeper, gave Cesena a 4-1 lead. 

This concludes the Cavalluccio 's preseason training camp, with Mister Mignani's squad set to return to work at Villa Silvia on Tuesday afternoon, July 30. The Bianconeri's next match will be the preliminary round of the Coppa Italia Frecciarossa against Padova, scheduled for Sunday, August 4, at 8:45 p.m. at Orogel Stadium Dino Manuzzi.

At the end of the match, Mister Michele Mignani commented on the work done so far: "The best thing is that this is a healthy group, which has shown from day one great willingness and attitude to work and sacrifice. We need to continue working in this way to be ready for the start of the championship."

"Bastoni and Ceesay are players who already have an important path in soccer and must find the best physical condition. They have only been here a few days but have integrated well because this group is exceptional."

"We have so many players who can be useful to our cause, and I still need to get to know them all the better because my knowledge is not as good as I would like. Today, I saw good responses, also considering that today was the last day of training camp, a period in which we have been working a lot, and we are still not as bright as we would like."
