The match between UC AlbinoLeffe Primavera and Cesena FC Primavera, counting towards Matchday 5 of the 2026/27 Primavera 1 Championship, ended goalless, with the Bianconeri securing a point at the end of a closely contested game featuring several chances for both sides.

The match got off to a balanced start at the ‘Centro Sportivo’ Giacinto Facchetti, where play unfolded at a steady pace from the opening minutes, with both sides careful not to give away any space. The Bianconeri earned three consecutive corners in the 14th minute and, shortly afterwards, came close to taking the lead through Michieletto, whose shot – with the goalkeeper beaten – was cleared off the line by Forattini. AlbinoLeffe responded through Riboni, whose header missed the target, and in the 16th minute came close to scoring through Rinaldi, but Marini saved the Cavalluccio on the line. Towards the end of the half, Cesena pushed forward again and in the 46th minute Tonti hit the crossbar with a header, with Michieletto failing to convert the rebound. The half-time score was 0–0.

In the second half, the Bianconeri came out with great intensity and in the 55th minute, Tonti tested Carrara with a fine shot from the right, whilst in the 61st minute, Enea Casadei fired over the bar following a lay-off from Michieletto.

The Bianconeri continued to press and, in the 67th minute, won their seventh corner of the match, before coming close to taking the lead again in the 75th minute when Enea Casadei failed to finish after Carrara had come off his line in vain. At the other end, AlbinoLeffe tried to strike on the counter-attack and, in the 77th minute, Ceresoli shot just wide.

In the closing stages, Cesena continued to attack but failed to find the decisive breakthrough, and the match at the ‘Giacinto Facchetti’ stadium – valid for Matchday 5 of the 2026/27 Primavera 1 Championship – thus ended 0–0.

Coach Pozzi’s Bianconeri will return to action after the international break on Saturday 10 October at 11:00, when they host Torino FC Primavera at the “Romagna Centro” Sports Centre in Martorano in the match for Matchday 6 of the 2026/27 Primavera 1 Championship.
