Another weekend of matches has come to a close for Cesena FC’s Youth Academy.
At the “Begato 9” Sports Center in Genoa, Coach Zanetti’s Under-18 team fell 3-2 to Genoa CFC. After Marra opened the scoring, the Rossoblù tied the game just before halftime and then took the lead. In the closing minutes, the Cavalluccio fought back and tied the game again through Conte, but in the 93rd minute, the home team scored the decisive goal to seal the 3-2 victory.
Coach Tarroni’s Under-17 team suffered a 3-6 loss against Carrarese Calcio at the “Romagna Centro” Sports Center in Martorano. Cesena took the lead through Succi, but the visitors turned the game around and extended their lead as the match progressed. In the second half, goals by Arrigoni and Murgia allowed the Bianconeri to narrow the gap, though they were unable to change the outcome of the match.
