Coppa Italia: Desser pushes struggling Cremonese to the semifinals
After a surprising victory over Napoli in the Round of 16 of the Coppa italia, Cremonese put another Italian giant, AS Roma to sword. Nigeriasoccernet.com reports.
The goal came quite early when Marash Kumbulla was caught napping in the centre-circle and Cyriel Dessers robbed him to sprint towards goal, then the Super Eagles forward was brought down by Rui Patricio for a penalty.
Desser in the 28th minute then blasted the spot-kick into the roof of the net.
Roma will further go down when David Okereke rolled across for Charles Pickel’s wayward shot and Zeki Celik accidentally turned it into his own net.
Despite all of Cremonese’ defensive effort, Jose Mourinho’s men finally got a goal in the 94th through Andrea Belotti.
Cremonese have not won a game in the Serie A this season but their 2-1 win over Roma now have a date in the Semifinal against Fiorentina. Dare Ogun
