MILAN FUTURO, A FINAL‑MINUTE WIN
Milan Futuro
After a long wait, Milan Futuro are back to winning ways at home, securing their first home win of 2025 thanks to Camporese's last-minute goal. A match of many emotions, that saw the Rossoneri start strong, then losing a two goal lead, before finding a winner in the 95th minute. Despite the difference made by Camarda up top, with Branca in midfield, just like in the past, the team suffered after the break before securing the winner. Campobasso found the equaliser from the spot in the 91st minute, nullifying once again a 2-0 Rossoneri lead.
It seemed as if it was going to be a bitter evening, but this time, Milan Futuro were strong enough to react: when it looked like to end in a draw, Camporese found the back of the net in the 95th minute, securing a huge win for the Rossoneri, putting an end to a long home struggle and giving the side a push in the battle for safety. Three key points, putting the Rossoneri on 27 for the season and, for now, they stay out of last place with Legnago and Sestri Levante still to play. The goal is clear: to build on this win to get out of the relegation fight for good, starting from next weekend against the Ligurians, Sestri Levante.

MATCH REPORT
The first half was initially mostly under control for Campobasso. In the 10th minute, Martina burst down the left through two players, the ball found its way to a teammate on the penalty spot, but their effort was wide. A range of individual efforts were not enough for the Rossoneri to trouble the opposition's defence. However, in the 23rd minute, a quick counter-attack saw Branca receive the ball in the midfield, he fed it through to Camarda who beat Neri with a first-time effort that put Milan Futuro ahead 1-0. The opposition regathered themselves and Martina had a good attempt, but to no avail. In the 45th, Alesi came inside from the left, and found the back of the net with a great right-footed finish, putting Milan Futuro 2-0 to the good. Two shots, two goals.
It seemed routine from then, but Campobasso came into the second half full of drive and in the 55th minute, they made it 2-1 with Bifulco's precise finish. The teams began getting tired and the changes then began. Amongst those who came on was Mangrassi, replacing Ianesi. The former Cittadella forward had two good chances: in the 70th minute he headed just wide on the end of Malaspina's cross and in the 72nd minute, he shot straight at the goalkeeper after Camarda set him up. In the 91st minute, Falco's effort struck Malaspina's arm and Rispoli gave the penalty: Di Nardo kept his cool and made it 2-2. And when the game seemed to get out of our grasp, the incredible happened: Turco's long clearance earned us a free-kick, which Camporese converted in the 95th minute to make it 3-2.
