Their pressing was aggressive and coordinated, forcing the visitors into errors and preventing them from establishing any rhythm. This high-intensity approach set the tone for what would become a one-sided contest.

The Stadio Giuseppe Sinigaglia erupted in celebration, with supporters sensing their team was on course for a memorable cup victory.
Sassuolo attempted to respond positively, pushing more players forward in search of an equalizer. However, their attacking efforts were disorganized and lacked the creativity needed to trouble Como’s well-organized defense. The home side remained compact and disciplined, dealing comfortably with everything Sassuolo attempted.
Extending the Advantage
The second goal effectively ended the contest as a meaningful competition. Como’s movement and passing had been exceptional throughout, and they were rewarded with another superbly crafted goal. Whether it came from a counter-attack, set-piece, or sustained pressure, it demonstrated the home side’s superior quality on the night.

Complete Control of the Match

Como’s midfield deserves particular credit for their exceptional performance. They dictated the tempo brilliantly, won crucial battles, and created numerous opportunities with intelligent passing and movement. Their work rate was phenomenal, covering every blade of grass and refusing to allow Sassuolo any time or space.
Sealing the Victory in Style
The third goal put the gloss on an already impressive performance. Como’s clinical finishing and attacking quality had been evident throughout, and they added another excellently executed goal to complete the rout. The celebration reflected the joy of securing comfortable passage to the next round.
Sassuolo’s frustration was visible as the scoreline mounted. Their defensive shape had completely disintegrated under Como’s sustained pressure, with gaps appearing everywhere. The visitors looked exhausted both physically and mentally, unable to mount any serious challenge to Como’s dominance.
Defensive Solidity Complements Attack
Como’s clean sheet was equally impressive as their attacking display. Their defensive organization remained solid throughout, barely allowing Sassuolo any sight of goal. The backline was disciplined, alert, and confident, dealing with minimal threat from a Sassuolo attack that was starved of possession and quality service.
The goalkeeper had a comfortable evening, rarely tested by an opposition that struggled to create clear opportunities. When called upon, he showed composure and good decision-making, commanding his area with authority and contributing to the overall defensive excellence.
Tactical Excellence from Como
Como’s tactical approach was outstanding from start to finish. Their high press disrupted Sassuolo’s build-up play, their attacking transitions were lightning-fast, and their defensive shape remained compact throughout. The coaching staff’s preparation was evident in how smoothly the team executed their game plan.
Substitutions were made intelligently, allowing key players rest while maintaining the same high standards. Fresh legs brought renewed energy and helped Como see out the victory professionally without any late scares or complications.
A Night to Remember

They had delivered a performance worthy of progressing in the Coppa Italia, defeating quality opposition with a display that showcased their ambition and capabilities.
For Sassuolo, this was a disappointing evening where they were comprehensively outplayed. Despite their Serie A pedigree, they had no answer to Como’s intensity, quality, and tactical intelligence. The defeat will sting, but they must quickly refocus on their league campaign.
