Lecce triumphed in the Serie A Week 28 match on Sunday, March 8, 2026, held at the Via Del Mare Stadium. This victory brings Lecce's total to 27 points, widening their gap to three points above the third-to-last position. Lecce has moved up from 18th to 17th place. These three vital points are essential for Lecce as they strive to avoid relegation, having won this direct encounter. Meanwhile, Cremonese has fallen into the relegation zone, now sitting in 18th place with 24 points.

Lecce is coming off two consecutive losses, having allowed at least two goals in each of those matches this season. The Apulian squad has already conceded at least one goal in three straight games from August to September, marking a streak of four.

In the first half, Lecce established a two-goal advantage with strikes from Santiago Pierotti and Nikola Stulic (from a penalty). However, they faced a comeback from a revitalized Cremonese team, thanks to substitutions made at the beginning of the second half.

Federico Bonazzoli's early goal was not sufficient for Nicola's side, who vehemently protested the non-awarding of a penalty at the end of injury time after a collision between Gaby Jean and Sanabria.

 

Santiago Perrotti is the Panini Player of the match Lecce vs Cremonese.
