Como extends its unbeaten run in Serie A to 11 matches
COMO, Italy (AP) --- Como beat Sassuolo 2-0 and extended its Serie A unbeaten
run to 11 matches on Friday.
Cesc Fbregas' team hasn't lost since the end of August when it was beaten by
Bologna 1-0.
The run includes wins at Fiorentina and at home to Juventus and Friday's
victory was its second Serie A triumph in five days following Monday's 5-1
drubbing of Torino.
Como, which also had a cup victory in September, took the lead after 13 minutes
with a training ground move.
Its practiced corner did not come off as seamlessly as planned, but it did lead
to a loose ball in the box that Anastasios Douvikas poked home from close range.
Spanish defender Alberto Moreno, starting only his second game in the league,
made it 2-0 eight minutes into the second half when he got a head on Nico Paz's
delightful chip over the Sassuolo defense.
The Argentine midfielder on-loan from Real Madrid was once again a standout
performer for Como and one of the reasons the club is just three points off
Serie A leader Roma.
The capital club has 27 points, two ahead of Milan and Napoli and three clear
of Inter, Bologna and Como.
Sassuolo is ninth.
