An Italian delight during the first half of the 4th matchday of the Champions League. At halftime, RC Lens is heavily dominated on their home ground with a crushing score of 0-3 against a Como team that is both precise and relentless.
From the kickoff, the Italians took control of the match. In the 7th minute, Tasos Douvikas, assisted by M. Perrone, quickly opened the scoring, sending a chill over the pitch. The Lens players briefly hoped to respond, especially in the 17th minute when the referee was called upon for a penalty, but after consulting VAR, the decision was made not to award a penalty in a situation involving F. Thauvin.
Strangled in play with 42% possession compared to Como's 58%, the Sang et Or failed to contain the opposing attacks. In the 32nd minute, the dynamic Tasos Douvikas doubled the lead, this time with a pass from Álex Valle, bringing the score to 0-2. Not stopping there, Como's festival continued just before halftime. Nico Paz increased the score in the 40th minute, perfectly assisted by the formidable Douvikas, who proved to be both a scorer and a key playmaker.
At 0-3 in the 41st minute, the French club is on the brink of a rout and will need to show a completely conquering and revolutionary face in the locker room to hope to turn the tide in the second half against Italians who are mastering their game.
