After the extraordinary success in Bologna, Cremonese confirms its magical moment and also defeats Lecce in front of the home crowd. The team led by Nicola, a true surprise of this Serie A along with Sassuolo, secures its second consecutive victory and reaches the Neroverdi in the eighth place in the standings, with 20 points after 14 matches.
Lecce, on the other hand, does not find confirmation, failing to build on the success achieved against Torino and returns to Puglia with an empty haul, albeit full of regrets.
In the first half, it is Stulić who wastes a glaring opportunity just a few steps from the goal, while in the second half the grigiorosso show takes place: Bonazzoli unlocks the score from the penalty spot, while Sanabria seals the final 2-0 with a header.
Great cross from the right by Zerbin and a leap in the center of the area by Sanabria. Cremonese confirms its great form by doubling the score with its Paraguayan striker.

Nothing to be done for Falcone: Lecce goes down 2-0 with just over ten minutes left in the match. The home fans sing: Nicola sees the second consecutive victory in the league getting closer.
At the start of the second half, the match is unlocked: Jari Vandeputte dives on a loose ball at the edge of the area and Ramadani makes the tackle. The Belgian falls on the line and after a long VAR review, referee Mucera awarded the penalty.

Bonazzoli steps up to the penalty spot, shoots strongly across, and beats Falcone who had guessed the direction.

Shortly before the start of the second half, a great moment between Federico Baschirotto and the over 2,000 Lecce fans in the away section. The defensive giant, after three years in Salento, bid farewell to his former fans in a touching moment reciprocated by the yellow-red crowd.

The biggest chance of the match also coincides with the first of the game: cross from the right and Stulic, good in movement but poor in execution.

The missed goal is significant: 0.45 xG value but the feeling that with the defense beaten and Audero late, the Salento striker should have done more.
