(Reuters) - Brazilian striker Joao Pedro scored a second-half equaliser for 10-man Cagliari with their only shot on target to snatch a 1-1 Serie A draw against fancied Sassuolo at the Sardegna Arena on Saturday.
An unmarked Pedro side-footed home after excellent work on the left wing by Marko Rog to score his 18th Serie A goal of the season and claim a barely-deserved point for the home side, who had teenage defender Andrea Carboni sent off early in the second half.
The result was a blow to Sassuolo’s hopes of winning a place in the Europe League next season and was a performance that will frustrate manager Roberto De Zerbi after they dominated possession and chances, but only converted an early header by Francesco Caputo. Eighth-placed Sassuolo move to 48 points from 34 matches, five behind seventh-placed AC Milan, who occupy the final Europa League qualification place, providing Coppa Italia winners Napoli finish in the top six. Milan play Bologna later on Saturday.
