FC Südtirol is slowing down the negative trend

Although the White-Reds have been waiting for a full point win since December 12th, they can still claim the 0-0 draw in Alessandria as a success. Especially when you take into account that the Piedmontese have only had to admit defeat to leader Gubbio in the last twelve championship games. However, FC Südtirol remains in a play-out place even after winning the point in Alessandria.

Alessandria started like a fire department in their home stadium and had their first top-class scoring opportunity after just a few seconds. However, Bondi's shot went just wide of the goal. In the eighth minute, the FCS showed its first sign of life through Mariano Romano. But the midfielder's shot was blocked by Andrea Servili, who was unforgettable in Bolzano. In the 35th minute, the former FCS goalkeeper was there again and defused a chance from Mattia Marchi. Shortly before, Davide Zomer was forced into a brilliant act on the other side.

In the second half of the game, both teams slowed down and limited themselves to keeping the ball in their own ranks. It wasn't until the 81st minute that anything resembling a goal threat arose when Kiem was able to fend off a dangerous follow-up shot from Scappini. In the 94th minute, the Alessandria striker found the winning goal again. After Zomer inexplicably gave up the ball, FCS defender Nazari just managed to direct Scappini's shot into the goal, saving FC Südtirol an important point.

A side detail: Alessandro Campo was sent to the stands after his substitution due to violent protests on the sidelines and is expected to miss the White-Reds' important home game against Cremonese on Sunday.
