(ANSA) – ROME, MARCH 18 – First home victory for Genoa that defeats Turin with a goal from Portanova, playing outnumbered from 24 ‘of the first half due to the expulsion of Ostigard for a double yellow card. A success that interrupts a streak of 26 games without a win and relaunches Blessin’s team in the key to salvation for the eighth consecutive useful result. Turin that starts well with Izzo who commits Sirigu with his head, good at lifting a corner. But at 14 ‘the advantage of Genoa arrives. Frendrup steals the ball on the trocar in Vojvoda and flies to the right, from the back he leaves a tense cross with Berisha who misses the exit, the ball reaches Izzo who is unable to control it and Portanova puts in the net from two steps. The grenades are struggling to react but at 24 ‘Genoa remains in ten. Ostigard, already warned, intervenes on Izzo on the edge, the visiting defender flies and in direct contact the contact seems evident so much that Mariani has no doubts in extracting the second yellow card and then expelling the Norwegian defender. In the second half, the grenades fail to exploit the numerical superiority, Genoa returns to believe in salvation (ANSA).
