Genoa’s Dominant First-Half Display

Starting off the game strong, Genoa controlled the ball cleverly thus enabling themselves to determine the style of play. In the first half of the match Fabio Miretti came to life, as he broke through twice and registered finishing goals with Ruslan Malionvsky’s assistance. If Andera Pinamonti and Morten Frendrup work together to exploit Lecce’s weakness in defence by continually bombarding them with dangerous attacks, it will lead to further mistakes by the heart of their backline. Missed attempts came in groups. Throughout the match Lecce did not produce any danger with their shots on goal, or else only managed to make for very fleeting appearances which were then quickly gone.
