Serie A | Como 3-1 Verona: Fabregas and co keep marching on | OneFootball

Como continued their positive run of results with a 3-1 victory over troubled Verona, thanking Tasos Douvikas, Stefan Posch and Mergim Vojvoda.

Cesc Fabregas was on a six-match unbeaten run, including the 2-0 victory over Juventus, but dropped too many points in disappointing draws against Genoa, Cremonese, Atalanta and Parma. Sergi Roberto was the only remaining absentee, as Jesus Rodriguez returned from suspension. Verona were still without a win after fumbling the 2-0 lead to draw 2-2 with Cagliari. Grigoris Kastanos and Unai Nunez joined Daniel Oyegoke, Moatasem Al-Musrati and Tomas Suslov on the absentee list.

See how it all unfolded on the Liveblog.

Nico Paz came close with a free kick that thumped the upright, but Como took the lead moments later.

Alex Valle floated a cross in from the left for the Tasos Douvikas bullet header from six yards, giving Lorenzo Montipò little chance.

Verona fought back, a dangerous Belghali ball from the right going past everyone, then Jean Butez rushing off his line to deny Suat Serdar after a give and go, with Victor Nelsson’s header just over on the resulting corner.

The equaliser was coming, and arrived when Como were too sluggish playing out from the back, allowing Serdar to take advantage by pouncing on a Maxence Caqueret error inside the box.

There was a big save on Nico Paz set up by Caqueret, then Gift Orban ran onto the Giovane assist only to have his finish charged down by Jaboco Ramon.

Como restored their advantage when Caqueret floated a set play to the back post for the header from defender Stefan Posch.

Giovane’s free kick failed to trouble the goalkeeper and Orban’s effort was charged down by Diego Carlos.

Verona threatened to equalise when Butez parried the Domagoj Bradaric attempt and his teammates struggled to clear the loose ball.

However, Mergim Vojvoda locked down the points in stoppages with a ferocious finish at the near post on a counter-attack sparked by Jesus Rodriguez.
