Match recap
Ceara secured a narrow 2-1 victory over Avai in Wednesday's Serie B encounter. The home side likely took an early lead, establishing a degree of control in the first half. Avai would have pushed for an equaliser, perhaps finding one to level the scores and shift momentum in their favour. However, Ceara managed to regroup and score a decisive second goal, regaining the advantage. Despite Avai's late efforts to salvage a point, Ceara held firm to claim all three. This win provides a significant boost for Ceara in the league standings, while Avai will be left to rue missed opportunities.
