Verona hosted Sassuolo in the 27th round of Serie A on March 3, Beijing time. This is a crucial relegation battle, as Verona and Sassuolo are in the bottom four and bottom three of the table respectively, and both teams are in desperate need of points to get out of the relegation zone.
Both teams showed a strong desire to attack in the first half, but neither could break the other's defense, so the score remained 0-0 at the end of the half.
In the second half, Sassuolo started to take the initiative, however they could never find a way to break through Verona's defense. In the 67th minute, Verona manager Baroni made a change in personnel, with Bonazzoli and Szywiedelski coming on as substitutes. The substitution paid off, and just 12 minutes later, Bonazzoli delivered a wonderful assist, which was received by Shvedelsky, who scored the only goal of the match to help Verona beat Sassuolo 1-0.
The win was very important for Verona, as they ended their six-game winless streak and got three valuable points, which is a huge boost for their relegation campaign. Sassuolo, on the other hand, are in the midst of an eight-game winless streak, and have scored only eight goals in their last ten matches, making their relegation situation a worrying one.
