Cagliari could only manage a draw as they got surprised by bottom placed Como, as Crotone regain the top of the table with a 2-0 over Cesena. Good wins for Bari, Novara, Ternana, Perugia and Trapani whilst Livorno are still searching for points after suffering their third consecutive deafet at Latina. First points for Spezia who managed to comeback from 2-0 down to draw 2-2 at Pescara. Goalless draw between Vicenza and Salernitana.
Only in the second minute of added time could Cagliari manage a draw against bottom placed Como who put on a suprising performance at the Sant’Elia. It was Simone Ganz who put Como ahead in the 50’ and after Cagliari were robbed of Sau’s equalizing goal in the 54’ when referee Ros did not see that the ball had gone over the line before being cleared by Ambrosini and having Fossati sent off, Joao Pedro managed to level the score thus avoiding the first defeat at home for the rossoblù.

Novara now in fourth place registered a 4-1 over Lanciano whereas Pescara lost a great chance to grab all three points when at home with leading 2-0 were held by Spezia who scored the goal which earned them the first points after four consecutive defeats in the dying minutes of the game from a contested penalty by Terzi.
