Juniores soccer, Luiss CBILL beaten in the last minute by Civitavecchia

  • 29 April 2022

The second team of the Juniores soccer championship beat us 2-1, despite the great performance by the boys of Luiss CBILL.

The match against Civitavecchia was suffered: for almost the entire game, the strong wind has complicated not a little the play of the 22 on the field.

To start strong immediately were the hosts, who, on a defensive inattention of Luiss CBILL, entered the area from the right marking the goal of the advantage.

Shortly after, Luiss wasted the chance to tie the game: Colombo, who found himself alone in front of the goalkeeper, was unable to angle his shot.

The end of the first half saw us go into the locker room with the result of 1-0.

When the team returned to the field, another Luiss was seen: Bottari immediately tied the score and, with a nice play, jumped over the goalkeeper to make it 1-1.

Mr. Mo’s team was then very careful and compact, giving up only a couple of occasions, where the goalkeeper Ghirlanda was ready.

A few minutes before the final whistle, Gargiulo had the 1-2 ball at his feet: he was in front of the goalkeeper but clamorously hit the post.

When there were very few minutes to go before the final whistle, Gargiulo had the ball 1-2: he was in front of the goalkeeper but hit the post clamorously. A few moments later, on a corner, Civitavecchia beat our Ghirlanda bringing home the three points.

It was a pity to lose a game like that, after having played an excellent second half and having reacted to the advantage of the locals.
