Genoa secured a 2-1 comeback victory over Pisa SC at the Cetilar Arena on Sunday, with Italy U21 international Jeff Ekhator scoring a crucial equaliser on matchday 33 of Serie A. Pisa opened the scoring in the 19th minute as Simone Canestrelli powered home a header from Samuele Angori's corner. Ekhator levelled the contest four minutes before halftime, firing a left-footed shot into the roof of the net from just inside the box. Lorenzo Colombo converted a penalty in the 55th minute to give Genoa the lead, which they held until the final whistle. Nigeria international Ebenezer Akinsanmiro started for Pisa and played 61 minutes before being substituted by Juan Cuadrado. Ekhator's goal marked his third in Serie A this season, with previous strikes coming against Napoli and AS Roma, as well as a goal in the Coppa Italia against Empoli FC in September. Genoa remain 13th in the league table with 39 points from 33 matches, while Pisa stay at the bottom with 18 points and five games left to play.
