Hellas Verona 3 - 1 Chievo: Hellas Verona enjoy derby win over Chievo to boost faint Serie A survival hopes
Posted Sunday, February 21, 2016 by PA
Hellas Verona's 3-1 derby victory over Chievo kept alive their faint hopes of surviving in Serie A.
Luca Toni saw his 29th-minute penalty saved but tucked away the spilled ball, with Giampaolo Pazzini rifling home a powerful volley just before the hour.
Hellas defender Vangelis Moras saw red for conceding a 71st-minute spot-kick, which Sergio Pellissier converted, and Chievo defender Nicolas Spolli soon followed the Greek down the tunnel for a second yellow card.
Five minutes into stoppage time, Artur Ionita confirmed the outcome with a screamer from 25 yards.
Verona are now seven points behind 17th-placed Genoa with 12 games remaining.
