Sassuolo beat Cremonese 3-0 in this evening’s final summer friendly, with Alessandro Matri, Pol Lirola and Luca Mazzitelli on target.
Cristian Bucchi’s side finished their warm-ups, as their first competitive game will be in the Coppa Italia against Spezia on August 12.
Matri nodded an early effort on to the upright and Alfred Duncan was denied by a goal-line clearance, but just before half-time Matteo Politano’s chipped pass released Matri for an angled drive.
