Bruno Fernandes thwarts Crotone with leveller
Substitute Bruno Fernandes denied Crotone their second victory of the Serie A season by earning Sampdoria their share of the points from a 1-1 draw.
The promoted club -- boasting only one win thus far this term -- were temporarily lifted off the foot of the table when Diego Falcinelli fired them ahead following a punched clearance from Samp goalkeeper Christian Puggioni in the 44th minute of play at the Stadio Ezio Scida.
Marco Giampaolo's Bluecerchiati pushed back hard after the break and got their reward when Portuguese midfielder Fernandes diverted Fabio Quagliarella's pass beyond Alex Cordaz for an equaliser.
