23rd round of "Serie A" championship started with two matches, in which teams fighting for a place in European tournaments lost points. Formerly playing Genoa's "Sampdoria", in a level match failed to maintain the advantage gained against "Torino" and the game ended in a draw. Marco Giampaolo's team was given the advantage by Lucas Toreira, but Afriyie Acquah equalized the score in the 25th minute. The same Acquah in the second half also received a second yellow card, but the coastal city footballers could not take advantage of the numerical superiority. A little later, Milan's "Inter" did not overcome the "Crotone" club, struggling to survive. The latter team played without their captain Mauro Icardi, so it was difficult for them to create dangerous chances. However, Eder, who played at the forefront of the attack, managed to score, although the deadlock was later broken only by Andrea Barberiso's shot. Now, taking advantage of these slip-ups by their competitors, occupying the 5th place, "Roma" eleven can play against Verona's "Hellas" tomorrow. This will be the first match of Sunday. Results: "Sampdoria" 1 - 1 "Torino" [1-0] 11' Lucas Toreira [1-1] 25' Afriyie Acquah 73' Afriyie Acquah ("Torino") sent off from the field "Inter" 1 - 1 "Crotone" [1-0] 23' Eder [1-1] 60' Andrea Barberis
