Genoa 2:2 L.R. Vicenza — Result, Match Report & Stats

Gary RedknappFootball AnalystMATCH REPORT

Amorim's first-half equaliser helped Genoa salvage a 2-2 draw against L.R. Vicenza in a Club Friendly that never quite found its rhythm. The Serie A side will have been relieved to avoid defeat against their lower-league opponents, though the result offered little clarity ahead of the new season.

The turning point came just before half-time when Amorim struck in the 42nd minute to cancel out Vicenza's opener, giving Genoa a foothold they had scarcely deserved. Lorenzo Colombo then put the home side ahead in the 58th minute, only for Vicenza to strike back within two minutes, levelling matters. A late goal in the 87th minute completed the visitors' comeback, leaving Genoa to rue their defensive lapses.

On the numbers, Vicenza created more from set-pieces, earning six corners to Genoa's one, but the home side controlled possession with 59% without turning it into sustained danger. Amorim was the standout player, earning an 8.13 rating for his goal and composure in a disjointed display. No further fixtures are scheduled.
