Venezia gave FC Südtirol their next home defeat

FC Südtirol's situation remains tense in Serie B: Federico Valente's men were unable to increase their lead on the playout ranks on Saturday. Venezia celebrated a clear success in the Drususstadion.

From the Drusus Stadium

FC Südtirol's own track is no longer an advantage. The White-Reds have only been able to celebrate one win in their last seven home games. On Saturday, the Talferstädter fought with heart and soul, but in the end the fourth-placed team from the lagoon city took a deserved victory from the Drusussadion. In the 0-3 defeat, the FCS's lack of offensive power was their downfall.

Although Daniel Casiraghi & Co. ran the ball well within their own ranks at times, they rarely came dangerously into the opponent's penalty area throughout the game. The early 1-0 by Venezia striker Joel Pohjanpalo (and the yellow-red card against Andrea Masiello) proved to be the decisive factor in the game. In the final phase, the guests made everything clear with two more goals. What you can't deny the FCS is its morals. What counts at the end of the day are the points.

Now points are needed

Venezia was able to take revenge for the 2-3 defeat in mid-December. The South Tyroleans have a chance to make amends next Saturday when they play the away game at Catanzaro (16.15:XNUMX p.m.). The gap to the playout places remains five points.
