Campagnola interprets the key phases of the match better, capitalizes on them by scoring and wins. Sanmichelese, on the other hand, while not deserving, 'fails' when it could not afford to make mistakes and loses. Football has simple rules - whoever scores wins, whoever doesn't score doesn't - which become even simpler when they are hung on a 'dry' match like the playoff final played at the Zanti. The summary? Sanmichelese, who played their game, and well, for two thirds of the match, playing at times even better than Campagnola, was unable to capitalize on the supremacy expressed in the first half. And they didn't 'see them coming', the Reggio Emilia team. Who instead arrived in the second half, splitting the game with two goals in the space of a few minutes and making amends for some of the suffering of too much of the match in the face of the Sassuolo team in the first half of the game. When the locals did more and better than the guests, without however finding – opportunities for Peddis at the start, for Alicchi after half an hour – the breakthrough that would probably have put them on the safe side.

With the game in the balance, Campagnola - until then reasonably on their own - nevertheless found the strength to shift the inertia of the game towards themselves: they raised their center of gravity and went to cash in, finding in the insertions of Barilli and Carlucci the crowbar to open a game that Sanmichelese had until then kept closed, very tight and compact around an organization that had always kept the guests, and possible trouble, away from Schiuma's goal. However, it opened up shortly after the second cooling break, on the incursion with which Barilli, in fact, decided the match by overcoming Schiuma on the way out. The very heavy goal cut the legs off the Sassuolo team whose defensive line, until then impermeable, gave way, shortly after, also to Carlucci for a 0-2 that punished the Sassuolo team beyond their demerits. And he delivers them to the repechage lottery - there are, today, five places, Sanmichlese is sixth on the grid and must wait, and hope, a place becomes available - while he unleashes the Campagnola party. The Reggio Emilia team must, in theory, still pass through the regional final phase, but in practice for them the Eccellenza is one step away. As per the commemorative jersey displayed after the race.
