Sassuolo ended up beating a combative Lecce to continue climbing positions after returning to activity (4-2). The green and black team had to row when they saw how the result equaled them up to two times, but finally they could celebrate a victory that places them in eleventh position.
The match quickly broke with Caputo's goal for Sassuolo. The striker took advantage of a mismatch in the visiting defense to define above the goalkeeper and score his 15th goal in Serie A.
However, before reaching the half hour of play, Lecce managed to level the match on a corner kick finished off by Lucioni.
Already in the second half, Sassuolo went ahead again with a penalty transformed by Berardi, but the joy was short-lived for the ‘neroverdi’ team, since Lecce tied with another maximum penalty transformed by Mancosu.
In the final stretch, Sassuolo imposed the logic with two goals in five minutes (Boga 78 ', Muldur 83') that confirmed the good shape of Roberto De Zerbi's pupils, who chained two draws and two wins consecutively after the break.
For its part, Lecce will continue for another week in the relegation zone after its sixth consecutive defeat.
