It’s an important victory for Cagliari on their quest for salvation.  Cagliari claiming all 3 points and seeing the light at the end of the tunnel.  A sour defeat for Sassuolo losing after 4 games previously having 3 draws and 1 win.

Cagliari opening the score in the 20th minute following a corner conceded by Sassuolo defender Francesco Acerbi.  It is defender Luca Rossettini to give the lead to Cagliari by jumping high enough for the headed shot defeating Sassuolo goalkeeper Andrea Consigli  in the bottom right corner.  The assist is by forward Joao Pedro.

Sassuolo shortening the distance in the 76th minute with the own goal by Luca Rossettini!!! Terrible move as Rossettini  deviating the ball, but it went inside the net!
