0
In the match of the 3rd round of the Italian Serie A, Como defeated Genoa 4:1 on the road. Cesc Fabregas' side won their second consecutive victory, while the Genoese suffered their third defeat at the start of the championship. Genoa unexpectedly opened the scoring in the 19th minute. Lorenzo Colombo took advantage of the opposition's high defensive line, burst down the left flank and fired in a cross, while Milutin Osmaic got ahead of Trevo Čaloba and hit the post from close range. However, the advantage of the home team lasted only six minutes. Martin Baturina gained space in front of the penalty area and sent the ball into the far lower corner with a powerful right-footed kick. After another five minutes, Como was already ahead. Alex Vallée passed to the far post, Leo Estigor only slightly touched the ball with his head, and Assan Diao took advantage of the situation and scored accurately on the fly. Before the break, the guests increased their advantage to two goals. Ian Coutu threw the ball behind the defenders to Nico Paz, who, after processing, punched with his right foot into the near upper corner - 3:1. Genoa couldn't get back into the game in the second half. Instead, Como continued to control the course of the meeting, and in the 78th minute Assan Diao scored a double. Moise Kean, who made his debut for the new team, passed to his partner after a quick attack and Diao completed the combination with an accurate shot into the far corner. In the end, Comeau won convincingly 4:1 and scored important points at the start of the season. Genoa, in turn, lost all three of their first league matches without scoring a single point.
