Cittadella, 10 February 2024 - A victory of great strength and endurance in Cittadella. A fabulous first half with goals from Bernabé and Hernani (Negro pulled one back for the hosts), followed by a substantive second half with many wasted chances that could have put the Gialloblù ahead on multiple occasions with a 3-1 scoreline. The next match is scheduled for Saturday, 17 February at the Tardini against Pisa.
