Catania Finally win an away, Catania have not won away game for 14 games so it is a big 3 points away. Catania should be really winning more away games with are team.

So we played last place team in Italy, Siena who have some really good players like Emanuele Calaiò,Alessandro Rosina,Francesco Valiani,Neto,Felipe who are all important to Siena.

Catania giving Lucas Castro the start as well as Amidu Salifu, Catania were with out Pablo Barrientos. Just have to point out that Lucas Castro has been a great pick up for Catania very skillful on the ball with fancy footwork and is a good all around player.

Game started and Catania midfielder had the best chance when Amidu Salifu shot was blocked and the ball found its way to Francesco Lodi who blasted it from out side the box but the shot went over. Alessio Sestu would have his teams first chance when he took the ball up the wing and getting passed a Catania player and shooting as soon as he got in the box. He had more time but he rushed the shot.

But Siena Would score because in the 10 minute there was an hard pass to Francesco Valiani who was in the box and he was able to hold the ball til he passed it to Alessandro Rosina as he came running in to the box and shot it to the bottom corner. After that Catania started pressuring and almost tied it when Giovanni Marchese crossed it in to Gonzalo Bergessio who got his foot on it but was blocked by Gianluca Pegolo.

Giovanni Marchese almost set up another player with a through ball to Lucas Castro who chipped it over Gianluca Pegolo and it was going in but a Siena defense man clear it from going in. Right before the half ended Sergio Almiron took a shot but it went wide.

Second half started and Catania again with chances with the ball dropping to Sergio Almiron who once a again shit wide. Lucas Castro took the ball up the wing and smashed a low cross that found Alejandro Gómez but he could not get a good hit on the ball which Gianluca Pegolo saved. But Catania would finally score when Gonzalo Bergessio was grabbed and as he was falling makes a clutch through ball pass to an open Lucas Castro who score to tie the game and gets his second of the year. Amazing pass by Gonzalo Bergessio.

Catania had another great chance when they had a 3 on 2 where Francesco Lodi took the ball up with Alejandro Gómez to his left and Gonzalo Bergessio to his right, Lodi passed it to Gonzalo Bergessio who was some how able to keep control of the hard pass and score with a chip shot from the an odd angle. In the 82 minute Catania won an corner where Francesco Lodi took it and it found Lucas Castro who header it across the box to an open Gonzalo Bergessio who smashed it in and we took all 3 points.
