What a finish in the last match, as Cagliari came back from being down 0-2 and secured a very satisfying victory through Luvumbo's goal in the 89th minute. World class coaching! That was the thoughts of manager Ranieri when Luvumbo scored the winning goal after coming on as a substitute in the 46th minute.
