Good Como but Bologna is there: Casale’s own goal decides, 1-0 at half time

The first half of the match ended at the “Sinigaglia” with Como ahead 1-0 over Bologna. The Lariani started off strong and after just four minutes they broke the deadlock with a through ball on the left side of the area for Cutrone who tried a cross that was deflected into his own goal by Nicolò Casale. Nothing doing for Skorupski. The Emilians responded with a recovery by Orsolini on the right side of the pitch.

The striker converges and unleashes a left-footed shot that ends just wide. In the 25th minute, the rossoblù try with a long-range shot by Odgaard that ends well above the crossbar. Two minutes after the half hour, Como has the chance to strike on the counterattack with Cutrone who enters the area but finds the wall of Casale who redeems the fortuitous own goal at the start.

On the corner, Dossena jumps higher than everyone else and heads the ball but it goes just wide. Cutrone comes close to scoring again with a brilliant suggestion from Paz, his lob ends up just wide of the field.
