Como beat Sassuolo 2-0 at home.

The Serie A clash between Como and Sassuolo took place on 24 October 2026 at the Giuseppe Sinigaglia stadium in Como. Both sides entered the match looking to claim three points, and the home side delivered a convincing performance in front of their supporters.

How it unfolded

The first half remained tightly contested, with neither side breaking the deadlock before the break. The breakthrough came early in the second half when Anastasios Douvikas found the net in the 49th minute. The Greek striker capitalised on a close-range opportunity, slotting a right-footed shot into the centre of the goal after a precise assist from Maxence Caqueret.

Just eleven minutes later, Douvikas doubled Como’s lead. In the 60th minute he struck again from the centre of the box, this time finishing a right-footed shot after receiving a pass from Kaiki. The two-goal cushion gave the hosts control of the match.

The remainder of the game saw Sassuolo’s attempts to get back into the contest thwarted by disciplined defending. In the 63rd minute Domenico Berardi was shown a yellow card, followed two minutes later by a booking for Yan Couto of Como for a bad foul. Sassuolo’s Ignace van der Brempt also received a yellow card in the 87th minute for a similar infringement. The match concluded with a final booking for Luis Milla of Como in first-minute stoppage time.
