Crotone suffered a setback in the race for automatic promotion from the Serie B following Saturday’s 3-2 defeat to Perugia, and Nigerian striker Simy Nwankwo did not get on the scorer’s sheet.
Simy played the entire duration of the game, but the forward could not add to his seven goals this season.
Mattia Mustacchio stole the Gli Squali at the Stadio Ezio Scida, however his brace proved futile as they slipped to third and a point behind Perugia.
The second tier of Italian football is 11 games old and seven months before the final game, Crotone have now suffered back to back defeats and will hope to avoid another slip in six days time when they host promotion chasing Ascoli.
