Genoa
Genoa showed impressive resilience to overturn a first-half deficit and claim a crucial away victory at Pisa. The visitors dominated possession (56% to 44%) and created the better chances throughout, with three big chances compared to Pisa's one. After Canestrelli's early header from a corner gave the hosts the lead, Genoa's response was swift and clinical. Jeff Ekhator's spectacular equalizer showcased the quality in their attacking ranks, before Lorenzo Colombo's penalty completed the turnaround following a handball. The second half saw both managers ring the changes with multiple substitutions, but Genoa's superior chance creation and clinical finishing proved decisive in what could be a season-defining result for their campaign.
