Frosinone Calcio were held to a 1–1 home draw by Palermo FC on matchday 34 of Serie B, as Filippo Ranocchia struck late to cancel out Giacomo Calò’s opener on Friday night.
With detailed match statistics beyond goals, cards and substitutions unavailable, the story of the evening was written in the final 15 minutes.
After a tight encounter, Frosinone finally broke the deadlock in the 75th minute. Giacomo Calò found the net to put the hosts 1–0 up, a goal that shifted the momentum in favour of the home side and briefly had them on course for an important three points in the regular season run-in.
Palermo, however, refused to fold. As the clock ticked towards full time, the visitors snatched an equaliser in the 89th minute. Ranocchia, already in the referee’s book from the first half, struck to make it 1–1, finishing a move created by substitute forward Joel Pohjanpalo, who provided the assist.
The match featured a series of yellow cards on both sides, underlining a combative contest. Antonio Palumbo and Ranocchia were booked for Palermo in the first half, while Gabriele Bracaglia saw yellow for Frosinone before the break. After halftime, Farés Ghedjemis, Kevin Barcella and Massimo Zilli all received cautions for the hosts, with Patryk Peda booked late on for Palermo.
Both coaches turned to their benches in search of an edge, with Palermo introducing the likes of Emmanuel Gyasi and Aljosa Vasic, while Frosinone brought on Francesco Gelli, Massimo Zilli, Seydou Fini and others in the second half.
The draw leaves both clubs to reflect on missed opportunities as the Serie B season edges towards its conclusion. Full statistical breakdowns, lineups and attendance figures were not available at the time of writing.
