Cagliari report cards – Viola lights up, Palomino in the right place. Little protagonists

Final result: Cagliari-Turin 3-2

Scuffet 7 – A series of well-defused and non-irresistible conclusions, however, can do nothing about Sanabria’s header and Linetty’s right-footed shot. He has no major faults. The final save on Adams was excellent and he also had a hand in the victory.

Hoe 6 – Nothing to complain about in the performance of Nicola’s side, first as an all-round full-back and then when he huddles with the centre-backs. Good at working in advance, present when there is something to offend.

Mine 6 – For large stretches of the match he was the insurmountable obstacle for Torino’s attackers, with only one error on Sanabria’s goal. He was preceded by the Paraguayan who re-established parity three minutes after Viola’s lead. From 63′ Palomino 6.5 – In the right place at the right time, on the first ball he sends the ball to the bottom of the bag.

Luperto 7 – A pair now perfectly established with Mina, it becomes difficult for the opposing center forwards to face them. He works well physically, he also works well in advance. Always concentrated and it was his assist for Palomino’s goal.

Augello 5.5 – Having trouble compared to Zappa along his lane, Lazaro often finds ways to put him in difficulty. He loses the close duel with the Granata winger.

Makoumbou 5.5 – He tries to take his team by the hand but often gets the timing of the play wrong, it’s not his best game. At times he appears awkward, postponed this evening. From 80 Deiola sv.

After 5.5 – The Granata midfield is better than that of the Sardinians, they struggle to make their muscles count in close-quarters duels. He tries in the second half with his right foot without looking at goal. From the 63rd minute Gaetano 6 – Good impact with the challenge.

Zortea 5.5 – First he was deployed as a tall winger, but he was never able to become a protagonist in the offensive zone. Few balls played, few initiatives on the wing for the former Atalanta player.

Purple 7 – It is immediately clear that it is the day and above all in confidence, a series of plays that mess up Torino’s plans and Coco who gets a yellow card to stop him. Then he thinks about it with his specialty, the free kick. From 63′ Lapadula 6 – He puts perseverance and desire into the siege before the advantage.

Luvumbo 6 – He earns the pass with movement and evading Milinkovic-Savic’s view of Viola’s winning free kick, otherwise he never manages to light up in spaces. From 46′ Marin 6.5 – Enter and give those geometries that were missing in the middle of the field.

Small 7 – Lots of dirty work, Cagliari relies on the broad shoulders of their center forward who doesn’t find a way to score but is more than valuable for his offensive play and maneuvering.

Davide Nicola 7 – The first at home has arrived, Cagliari gets rid of the boulder in a spectacular match full of emotions. It strikes the desire to seek success, as well as the desire to protect the result in the final assaults. He gets all the moves right, then Scuffet also does his part to secure a platinum success.
