The match of the 9th round of the Italian Serie B between Cittadella and SPAL (0:0) was marked by an extremely rough game on the part of the hosts. They included two removals, and the second red card was the result of the fact that the captain of the "Cittadella" Simone Branca deliberately stepped on the head of a lying opponent with spikes (which he himself "lay" on the lawn before that).
