The Marchionni team opens the scoring in the 20th minute when Lo Bosco is the quickest to pounce on Manuzzi’s flick from a corner taken by Rrapaj, making it 1-0. Ravenna continues to press and doubles their lead in the 32nd minute with Mandorlini, who scores with a precise diagonal shot that surprises the opposing goalkeeper. Shortly after, the yellow-reds come close to a third goal: Milan finds himself in front of Gilli, but the Fiorenzuola goalkeeper makes an extraordinary save, keeping his team in the game.
The second half begins with a determined approach from the home side, who narrow the gap in the 52nd minute with Oboe, who heads in from a cross from the right. For about twenty minutes, Fiorenzuola relentlessly seeks the equalizer, but Ravenna’s defense holds firm, conceding little to nothing despite some struggles. In the final minutes, the yellow-reds manage the game better and defend their precious lead, coming close to a security goal with a nice play that frees up Rrapaj for a shot.
A tense episode in stoppage time involves the benches: after a heated exchange of words, both team managers are sent off by the referee.
With this victory, Ravenna remains in touch with Tau Altopascio and Forlì, both of whom won their matches today, keeping the pursuit of the top positions alive. The next home game against Cittadella Vis Modena will be crucial for continuing this chase, but first, the yellow-reds will be busy in the Coppa Italia in Castelfidardo.

The Tau presents itself with an unprecedented setup: Venturi fields a cautious formation, designed solely to contain the opponents, leaving Motti isolated in attack to fight against Esposito. For his part, the Giallorossi coach opts for the usual starting lineup, with Di Renzo starting in place of Manuzzi. In front of a Benelli stadium once again crowded, with attendance close to 4,000, the match begins with a phase of study. It’s the Tau that creates the first dangerous opportunity in the 5th minute: Motti, cutting in at the near post, challenges Fresia, who is ready to respond. The response from Ravenna doesn’t take long to arrive: Di Renzo attempts a shot from a tight angle, Cabella fails to hold it, and Lo Bosco nearly scores a successful tap-in. Di Renzo again becomes the protagonist midway through the first half, first with a header from an excellent cross by Lordkipanidze that goes just wide, then with a central shot from a short clearance by the defense. Ravenna takes control of the game, but Tau defends with great attention, systematically doubling up on the Giallorossi ball carriers and trying to strike with set pieces. Lombardo attempts to surprise Fresia with a free kick to his near post, but to no avail. The second half offers even fewer thrills. Ravenna continues to seek spaces to break through the visiting defense, but the high density in midfield, a result of Simone Venturi’s tactical work, complicates the Giallorossi’s maneuvers. The best opportunity comes from a play orchestrated by the duo Rrapaj-Manuzzi, who try to replicate the winning scheme seen against Forlì: however, the Giallorossi center forward, returning from injury, misses the ball’s impact for a fraction of a second. In the final minutes, Ravenna creates one last opportunity with a dangerous cross-shot from Calandrini, deflected at the last moment by Cabella, not without difficulty. The Giallorossi leave the field feeling bitter for not being able to achieve their eighth consecutive victory under Marchionni’s guidance. However, they can take comfort in a performance that saw them more proactive than the league leaders and confirms the defensive solidity of the “new” Ravenna: just two goals conceded in the last eight matches. The pursuit of Tau Altopascio will resume next Sunday in the away match against Fiorenzuola.

LINEA ROSA, an association active since 1991, offers listening, welcoming, and free support to women victims of gender violence. Its work goes beyond direct assistance; it also includes awareness-raising and prevention activities, promoting a culture based on respect and equality.

Gender violence is a wound that transcends every age, culture, and social condition. Addressing this issue within a stadium—an environment that is predominantly male and serves as a meeting point for different generations—presents a unique opportunity to raise public awareness and foster cultural change.

Through this initiative, Ravenna FC wants to emphasize the importance of teamwork against all forms of violence, standing alongside the 500 women who turn to LINEA ROSA each year for support.

The yellow-red club thanks LINEA ROSA for the valuable work done in the community and invites everyone present to reflect on a topic that concerns the entire community. Change begins with a gesture, a thought, a shared action.

United for a future without violence.

The Ravenna FC secures access to the next round of the Coppa Italia with a narrow victory on the field of Lentigione. In the match played at the Stadio Levantini, the yellow-reds demonstrated quality and intensity, winning 1-0 with a solid and convincing performance.

Both teams made extensive use of rotation, but Mister Marchionni’s players managed to keep the pressure high and conceded very little to their opponents, led by Cassani. The Ravenna defense was impeccable, allowing Lentigione only one real dangerous opportunity.

On the offensive front, the giallorossi created several opportunities to open the scoring, with the young Fiori being the protagonist of two dangerous shots. The decisive goal came midway through the first half: Drapelli, with a precise header, converted a curled free kick taken by Guida into a goal.

Thanks to this victory, Ravenna FC will face the winner of the match between Vigor Senigallia and Castelfidardo in the next round. This is an important step forward for the team, which continues its journey with determination in the competition.
