A heart-stopping victory: the Giallorossi overturn Zenith Prato and secure three extremely valuable points.


Ravenna FC gave the Benelli crowd a night of pure excitement, overturning a desperate situation to claim a 3–2 victory over Zenith Prato. A win that, at least for one night, sends the Giallorossi to the top of the table alone while waiting for Forlì’s response. An extraordinary comeback, crowned by a stunning goal from Guida in the 96th minute, which sent the Giallorossi fans into raptures and reignited enthusiasm ahead of the Coppa Italia final.
The start of the match is a nightmare for Ravenna, who fall behind after just 5 minutes: a run by Falteri puts the defense under pressure, with Nistri taking advantage of a short clearance to score the visitors’ opener. The Giallorossi try to react with Guida, whose header forces Brunelli into a save, and then with a dangerous cross that almost catches the goalkeeper off guard. Around the half-hour mark, Zagre breaks down the wing but is blocked at the last moment. In the 33rd minute, Fresia makes a crucial intervention, preventing a defensive mistake by stopping Falteri. However, in the 41st minute, a misunderstanding between Biagi and Mauthe leaves the goal wide open for Falteri, who dribbles past the goalkeeper and scores the visitors’ second.
In the second half, coach Marchionni reshuffles the cards by bringing on D’Orsi and Calandrini, and Ravenna shifts into a higher gear. The first signs come from Guida, whose shot is cleared off the line, and from a header by Venturini. In the 53rd minute, Di Renzo pulls one back with a superb header from a cross by D’Orsi, and in the 60th minute the same striker levels the score with a precise right-footed finish from an assist by Rrapaj. Ravenna do not settle for the draw and keep pushing in search of the winning goal. When the match seems decided, in the 96th minute Guida produces a moment of magic with a curling shot that nestles into the far post, sending the stadium into raptures.
A crucial victory that reignites the Giallorossi’s ambitions and fires up the fans ahead of the next decisive match.
