Magic night at Benelli: Ravenna claims the derby in front of 4000 fans
Dream night at Benelli, with the giallorossi winning the derby in front of over 4,000 ecstatic fans from Ravenna. Marchionni’s treatment is working: Ravenna secures its fourth consecutive victory, temporarily reaching second place, just 3 points from the top.


The yellow-red coach maintains continuity with the starting lineup that has performed well in recent outings, while Forlì responds with a 4-3-3 formation, trying to limit Ravenna’s work on the flanks. In the initial phase, Forlì prefers possession of the ball but produces only two not very dangerous crosses. The first chance goes to Ravenna, with Lordkipanidze cutting inside and sending a low shot that grazes the post around the half-hour mark. The response from the white-reds comes shortly after, with Okitokandjo making a run into space but encountering an extraordinary intervention from Onofri, who averts danger for Fresia. Towards the end of the first half, Ravenna grows into the game and becomes dangerous in Forlì’s box, but without success.
At the start of the second half, the Giallorossi team delivers a one-two that decides the match, with Paolo Rrapaj as the protagonist. The Giallorossi captain, well-marked by the opponents in the first half, sends in a dangerous cross just two minutes after the referee’s whistle, which finds Manuzzi at the near post for a winning deflection, confirming his knack for scoring with a true striker’s finish. A few minutes later, Ravenna doubles the lead: Rrapaj is decisive again, bringing order to a scramble in the Forlì area, where the ball ricochets near the goal line before he unleashes a powerful left-footed shot that bulges the net, causing the Mero stands to erupt. Forlì is shaken by the blow and struggles to find a way to change the momentum of the game; in fact, it’s Lo Bosco who comes close to scoring the Giallorossi’s third goal with a billiard-like shot. The visitors respond with pride in the final moments, but apart from a goal disallowed for offside, they fail to trouble Fresia, who secures another clean sheet.
The victory in the derby allows Ravenna to overtake the biancorossi and boosts the ambitions of the giallorossi, who will be back in action at the Benelli on Wednesday evening for the Coppa Italia match against Forsempronese.

Ravenna FC defeated 1-2 by Sasso Marconi: disappointing performance
Il Ravenna FC si prepara per la trasferta contro lo Zenith Prato, che si disputerà al Lungobisenzio, in una gara decisamente importante per entrambe le squadre.


I giallorossi, guidati dal tecnico Marco Marchionni, puntano a dare continuità ai risultati e a mantenere alta la fiducia conquistata nelle ultime settimane, consapevoli che per risalire la china della classifica serve continuare a fare punti pesanti.
Lo Zenith Prato, attualmente in difficoltà, reduce da due sconfitte consecutive in trasferta, è determinato a ottenere punti per allontanarsi dalla zona playout, promettendo così un confronto intenso e combattuto.
Tra i convocati del Ravenna torna Nappello, rientrato dalla squalifica. In dubbio la presenza di Venturini, che sta gestendo un fastidio al polpaccio, mentre Agnelli sarà assente dopo l’espulsione per doppio giallo rimediata contro il Piacenza. Tra i padroni di casa, certa l’assenza dello squalificato Cellai, in rete nella scorsa giornata.
I ragazzi del Ravenna anche in questa gara saranno sostenuti da un numeroso gruppo di tifosi giallorossi, pronti a seguirli in Toscana e a supportarli annullando il fattore campo fino al triplice fischio. Un’altra prova importante per il gruppo di Marchionni, che continua a lavorare con determinazione e concentrazione per sviluppare tutto il proprio potenziale della squadra costruita in estate dal DS Mandorlini.
I CONVOCATI:Portieri:
Gabriele Fresia, Matteo Galassi
Difensori:
Daniel Crosariol, Francesco D'Orsi, Leo Di Martino, Mattia Drapelli, Adriano Esposito, Enrico Mauthe, Matteo Milan, Matteo Onofri, Andrea Venturini
Centrocampisti:
Simone Biagi, Giacomo Calandrini, David Lordkipanidze, Matteo Mandorlini, Matteo Rossetti, Paolo Rrapaj
Attaccanti:
Luca Di Renzo, Umberto Nappello, Michele Guida, Loreto Lo Bosco, Francesco Manuzzi
BIGLIETTI DISPONIBILI DIRETTAMENTE AL LUNGOBISENZIO
