The Giovanissimi Nazionali saw their 100 per cent start to the season come to an end as Genoa went clear at the top of the table courtesy of this morning’s 3-1 win in Vinovo.
Riccardo Malandruccolo and Simone Zola fired the visitors into a two-goal lead inside the first half, with Fabrizio Caligara giving the hosts hope when he halved the deficit.
But an early second-half goal from Gabriele Gibilterra sealed the Giovanissimi’s fate to leave them trailing the Gialloblu by four points with a game in hand.
The Bianconeri’s first chance to get back on track comes next week away at Sampdoria in Liguria.
