It’s a game for survival. Hellas Verona and Benevento still unable to win a game in the Serie A. Hellas having 3 points after 3 draws and losing 4 games. Chaos is more for Benevento losing all 7 games and not having a single point but a negative goal difference of -16.
Tough situation for Benevento remaining with 10 players since the 37th minute. Referee Di Bello giving a RED CARD to Benevento defender Luca Antei after a foul on Hellas Verona forward Mattia Valoti.
It is Hellas Verona to open the score in the 74th minute. Defender Rômulo defeating Benevento goalkeeper with a right footed shot in the top left corner. The assist is by Daniele Verde.
