Chapter 18 Move forward! Novara!

In the last game of February, Novara visited Terni to challenge Trana.

This is a mid-table team currently ranked thirteenth in Serie B. However, Trana is not an easy team to deal with. They can be called giant killers this season. Teams in the top half of the standings, including Empoli, Modena, and Stabia, have all been defeated by Trana.

As the game time passed, the score on the field remained at 1:1.

Just when the game was coming to an end, and many people thought that Novara's winning streak would be fixed at ten games, Bruno stood up again.

Led by Bruno, the revitalized Novara began to besiege Trana in the final stage of the game.

However, after attacking for more than ten minutes, Trana, who did not break through Novara's goal again, discovered that Novara started to counterattack, and recovered all the way, intending to maintain the 1:1 score until the end of the game.

Being able to draw with Novara, which has won ten consecutive games and is full of momentum, is enough for Trana to be happy.

In the 92nd minute of the game, the injury time was about to end in 3 minutes.

At this time, 1 people, including forward Trana, all retreated to the penalty area, intending to defend one point with an iron wall.

The Brescia striker prepared to receive the ball, but Buzigoli, who had been watching eagerly from the sidelines, made a beautiful sliding tackle and intercepted the ball.
