Heart and instinct: Akragas bends Scordia and continues the chase for the leader Priolo
Now testing at Orlandina: there is the pass for the Coppa Italia semifinals.
The match ended with a narrow victory for Akragas in the challenging away game against Scordia. The home team was dangerous, and at the 23rd minute, D'Emanuele earned a penalty. He took the shot from the spot, but Cagnina managed to instinctively save it. On the counterattack, Ten Lopez entered the area, but his final shot went over the crossbar. The first half ended with no goals. In the second half, the game opened up. In the 66th minute, a corner kick in favor of Akragas found Alfonso Cipolla well positioned in the box, who, aided by a deflection from Foti, scored behind the helpless Cirnigliaro. Scordia reacted strongly, managing to create danger with a couple of shots. At the final whistle, the white-blue team celebrated greatly. In the overall standings, Akragas maintains a four-point lead over Priolo Gargallo, who also won against Noto with a score of 4 - 3. Next Sunday, there will be an away game against Orlandina for the return leg of the Coppa Italia quarter-finals. In the first leg, the white-blue colors prevailed, defeating the Peloritani team with a score of 3 - 1. The team that advances will reach the semifinals. After that, there will be a break, and the league will resume on April 12, at home against Qal'at.
