Tanti, troppi, esperimenti per Diamanti. A Forlì finisce a reti bianche
Cesena's experimental squad played to a 0-0 draw in a friendly match against Forlì. Coach Diamanti introduced significant changes to the lineup compared to previous tests. Key players such as Mangraviti, Bisoli, and Shpendi were given a full rest, while Pieraccini made a return. The Bianconeri started strongly, with Casadei coming close to scoring early on, but his effort was saved by Martelli. Forlì then had an opportunity due to a mistake by Cesena's goalkeeper Fontana, who managed to recover and make a save. Another chance for Cesena came just before halftime with Pagano's curling shot that went wide.
In the second half, Diamanti reshuffled the team, and the Cavalluccio created further danger. Fiori, a second-half substitute, had a shot that went high. Forlì's Farinelli tested Fontana with a deflected shot. Shortly after, Druiventak delivered a dangerous cross that no one could convert. Towards the end of the match, former player Coveri had a good opportunity, but his shot went narrowly over the bar. Debenedetti also saw his late effort miss the target.
This friendly marked the end of Cesena's preparation matches. Their first official game of the season will be against Sassuolo in the Coppa Italia on August 17th.
