Monza 3:3 Padova — Match Report

Gary RedknappFootball AnalystMATCH REPORT

Monza and Padova played out a 3-3 draw in a Club Friendly, with Padova’s Lorenzo Carissoni the standout midfielder on an 8.61 rating, though neither side could claim a win as the friendly ended all square. The match was a frantic, end-to-end affair that offered little in the way of defensive rigour, with both sides trading blows from the 48th minute onwards.

The turning point came after the break, when Matteo Pessina put Monza ahead in the 48th minute, only for Gianluca Caprari to level four minutes later. Dany Mota restored Monza’s lead from Pessina’s assist in the 61st minute, but Kevin Lasagna struck twice, first in the 66th and then again in the 89th minute, to salvage a share of the spoils for Padova, with Patrick Cutrone’s 69th-minute effort sandwiched in between.

Possession was dead even at 50% apiece, but Padova won three corners to Monza’s none, suggesting they carried the greater attacking threat in the final third. Carissoni, a midfielder, earned the highest rating of the match at 8.61 despite not scoring, his influence underpinning Padova’s resilience. With no prediction from CheckLive’s model and no next fixture scheduled, the draw leaves both sides without much to take away beyond the workout.
