ASD Imperia 1–0 ASD Millesimo Calcio — ASD Imperia edged past visiting ASD Millesimo Calcio 1–0 on September 6th, 2026, in an Italian Serie D fixture decided by a single moment of quality. The win provides Imperia with a second consecutive result from the new season and continues their ideal start on home soil.

Match Overview

Imperia arrived for their home contest full of belief following a positive opening to the campaign, while Millesimo Calcio hoped to produce a stubborn away performance. That proved to be a realistic ambition for the opening 30 minutes, as the visitors matched the hosts across midfield and narrowed the pitch well.

However, Imperia’s persistence was rewarded before halftime. A well-timed run from midfield was met with a precise through-ball, and the Imperia forward remained calm to sweep the ball beyond the advancing goalkeeper. That strike proved to be the moment that separated the two teams and gave the home side something tangible to defend.

Second Half Game Management

• Compact defending: Imperia held their shape brilliantly and forced Millesimo into speculative long-range efforts.
• Strong aerial contests: The home center-backs won nearly every first and second ball, preventing any sustained pressure from building.
• Missed chances for the hosts: On the counter, Imperia had a series of half-chances to double the advantage, but a combination of poor finishing and solid goalkeeping kept the game tense.

Millesimo Calcio enjoyed decent possession late on as they chased an equalizer, but their best opening was a header that flashed wide of the post. That was as close as they came, and Imperia saw out the final minutes with relative control.

League Context and Looking Forward

The narrow victory keeps Imperia in touch with the leading pack in the Serie D standings, giving the club a useful reference point of confidence in front of their own supporters. Defensively they have looked very organised so far, and this clean sheet only builds on that trend. Millesimo, meanwhile, will take heart from a battling performance but must start converting draws and narrow defeats into points before the season takes shape.
