Another weekend of matches has come to an end for Cesena FC’s Youth Academy.

It was a setback for Coach Zanetti’s Under-18s, who were beaten 5-0 away at SS Lazio. The winning run of Coach Tarroni’s Under-17s also came to an end; at the ‘Begato 9’ Sports Centre in Genoa, they took the lead through Mazzi, but Genoa CFC fought back to score four goals, sealing a 4-1 victory.

Meanwhile, in Martorano, Coach Tamburini’s Under-16s secured their first win of the season, beating US Cremonese 5-0 with goals from Esposito, Italiano, Mattei, Montalti and Rinaldini.

Coach Magi’s Under-15s also showed great character, staging a fine comeback against US Cremonese. After Briganti had opened the scoring, the visitors turned the match around to lead 3–1, but the Cavalluccio fought back to complete the comeback and secure a 7–3 victory, thanks to a brace from Santarelli and goals from Celli, Almerigi, Briganti, Callisti and Diallo.
