Insigne Inspires Pescara to 3–1 Win at Reggiana in Serie B
Delfino Pescara 1936 claimed an important 3–1 away victory over AC Reggiana on Serie B matchday 33, powered by a standout display from Lorenzo Insigne and a decisive late goal from Lorenzo Meacci.
The visitors struck first in the 21st minute when Giacomo Olzer broke the deadlock, giving Pescara an early advantage. Reggiana reached half-time trailing and responded with a triple substitution at the break, but Pescara doubled their lead soon after the restart.
In the 50th minute, Insigne made it 2–0, finishing a move created by Olzer, who added an assist to his earlier goal. Insigne’s influence was felt at both ends; he later received a yellow card in the 63rd minute as Pescara worked to protect their lead.
Reggiana hit back in the 68th minute. Substitute Mathis Lambourde scored to pull the hosts back into the contest, finishing from a pass by Cedric Gondo to reduce the deficit to 2–1. However, any hope of a late comeback faded in the closing stages.
Pescara coachched fresh legs into the game, including Lorenzo Meacci, who made a decisive impact. In the 89th minute, Meacci restored the two-goal cushion, converting after good work from Antonio Di Nardo to seal a 3–1 victory for the visitors.
There was late frustration for Reggiana as Alessandro Tripaldelli, introduced at half-time, was sent off in the 90th minute. Pescara also saw bookings for Insigne, Lorenzo Berardi and Andreaw Gravillon in a physical finale.
The win strengthens Pescara’s position in the Serie B table as the regular season enters its final stretch, while Reggiana are left to regroup after a costly home defeat. Detailed statistics, lineups and attendance figures were not available at the time of writing.
