FC San Giorgio-FC Francavilla 1-2
Matchday 4, Serie D Group H
(13′ Langone, 29′ Melillo, 57′ Varela)
Nothing to be done for the St. George who, in the first midweek round of Serie D, lost 2 to 1 at the Paolo Borsellino in Volla against Francavilla.
The first chance for the Granata: Raiola is fouled and wins a free kick on the edge of the area: the former Acerrana player takes the ball, but his shot is deflected by the wall and deflected into a corner.
In the 12th minute, Langone reached the edge of the penalty area, skipped past an opponent, and fired a shot that forced the Granata goalkeeper to save the corner. From the ensuing corner, Langone headed the ball into the net, giving the visitors the lead.
In the 29th minute, the rossoblù doubled their lead with Melillo, who beat Barbato from the edge of the area to make it 0-2.
In the 57th minute of the second half, Varela reopened the match with a left-footed shot from the edge of the area that flew past Prisco.
Francavilla attempted to close things out: first with Petruccetti, whose ball went wide, then with Melillo's shot deflected for a corner by the Granata defense, and then again with Petruccetti, whose shot was blocked by the home goalkeeper. The result was a 2-1 victory for the Lucanian team, leaving San Giorgio with two points in the standings, thanks to two away draws at Virtus Matino and Mariglianese. On Sunday, the Granata travel to Bitonto.

NAPLES – Public transport strengthened for the challenge between SSC Napoli e AS Roma, scheduled for Sunday evening at the Maradona Stadium. After the final whistle, Metro Line 2 will extend its service with seven additional runs to facilitate the outflow of fans from the Fuorigrotta area.
The initiative, announced by Trenitalia – Regional, born from the collaboration with Campania region e City of Naples and is part of the mobility management plan for major city sporting events. A total of 3.400 additional seats will be made available compared to the regular service.
Enthusiasm, ambition, and a desire to immediately serve the team. Alisson Santos, 23, a Brazilian striker who joined Napoli in the winter transfer window from Sporting Lisbon, introduced himself to the Azzurri fans with words that blended emotion and determination. "I'm very happy to be here; it's a dream for me. Napoli is a great club, and I hope to help them achieve our goals," he explained, speaking of his new adventure.
His debut is already behind him, having played half an hour in the Coppa Italia against Como and been responsible for one of the final penalties, despite elimination. "I'm happy with my debut but obviously sad about the result, because I wanted to advance with the team. But now it's time to work and look ahead," he said, immediately demonstrating his mentality and sense of team spirit. It wasn't even his first time at the Maradona: "Tuesday was my second time here; I'd already played in this stadium with Sporting in the Champions League. But playing for Napoli is an incredible feeling, feeling the passion of the Neapolitan fans."
A live TV joke turns into a media sensation. It happened during "La Pennicanza" on Rai 2, when Fiorello, with a mix of irony and improvisation, dropped what he himself called a "scoop" about Lazio's future.
The host was joking while waiting for a response on the video call from singer Giorgia when, while talking to Biggio, he suddenly changed the subject: "I have a scoop, I learned something. According to Lazio's friends, Lazio will be bought by spring, and I even know by whom. Can I say it? These are rumors, Roman rumors. I can't say it's just a rumor because in Rome, there are streets..."
