TEAM C DRAW AND WIN TO GO TOP!
Juventus for Special claim a draw against Torino FD in their opening game, despite having gone behind to a wonde rgoal from Torino's Cantanna. However, a rallying effort from Stella Matteo's men saw them win a free-kick late on through Andrea Rampone, who duly converted to earn Team C a 1-1 draw.
Next up was Sassuolo F.S. and the Neroverdi start the match in the ascendancy, with them taking the lead from a corner after just six minutes. The Bianconeri again fight back from a goal down, and in the second half, minutes from the 90, Rampone wins and scores a penalty to tie the game. Then with the last kick of the match, pressure from Juventus forces a mistake in the Sassuolo defence to concede an own goal and hand a 2-1 victory to Juve!
The results mean that Team C are now top of their standings in the fifth category.
CONVINCING WIN OVER NOVARA FOR TEAM A
Juventus for Special Team A, ran out 4-2 winners over Novara, after goals from Rivoira, Ida and a Corsaro brace.
Juve take the lead early on after a tap-in from Corsaro, however lapses in concentration in the Bianconeri defence see Novara draw level and then take the lead before half-time. Coach Gallina's boys manage to draw the match level thanks to Carsaro's second of the game.
The Bianconeri re-take the lead with a goal from Rivoira on the right -hand side, before finally making the game safe through Ida to win the match 4-2!
