Cagliari beat Bari 2-1 and saw a penalty parried in a fiery promotion battle at the Sant’Elia.
Bartosz Salamon’s screamer was only beaten away into the path of Federico Melchiorri to open the scoring, then Marco Sau placed his angled drive across the face of goal.
Bari got back into it with an Alessandro Rosina looping free kick.
Cagliari thought they had sealed it late on when Valerio Di Cesare handled the ball, but Sau’s penalty was parried and Alberto Cerri incredibly ballooned the follow-up over the bar.
