Rubén Olivera rescues victory

By: j | December 21st, 2008

Injury laden Genoa defeated Chievo Verona 1-0 with a last minute goal by Rubén Olivera. For the match Gian Piero Gasperini was without a staggering list, including Diego Milito, Matteo Ferrari, Raffaele Palladino, Andrea Gasbarroni, Matteo Paro, Marcel Román, Omar Milanetto and Giuseppe Sculli. With Rubén Olivera and Boško Janković upfront for Genoa, much of the match was a box to box affair and opportunities limited in a efficient, tight marking scheme. With young gun Stephen El Shaarawi entering the match with seven minutes remaining, the winner was found at the eighty-ninth minute as Rubén Olivera’s right footed drive from inside the box claimed the back of the net and the 1-0 victory.

With the victory Genoa’s maintains its sixth place position in the table with twenty-nine points, one point behind Napoli.
