Sassuolo pays for blunder

SASSUOLO’S victory over Pescara has been reversed to a 3-0 loss.

Sassuolo won Sunday’s Serie A match 2-1 but the Italian league now says it fielded an ineligible player. The league says the paperwork for the signing of Antonino Ragusa, who played the final 25 minutes, had not been filed by noon the day before the match — as its rules demand. Sassuolo, which will embark on its maiden Europa League campaign this season, says it will appeal. The club was one of four teams to win both its opening matches, along with Genoa, Juventus and Sampdoria.
