VENICE, Italy (Interstat) — Issa Doumbia and Mattia Compagnon each scored and assisted as Venezia defeated Palermo 2-0 on Friday in a Serie B match at Stadio Pier Luigi Penzo.

Doumbia opened the scoring in the 46th minute, collecting a pass from Compagnon and finishing past the Palermo goalkeeper. Compagnon sealed the victory in the fourth minute of second-half stoppage time, converting a pass from Doumbia. Both midfielders finished with a goal and an assist.

Bartosz Bereszynski and Patryk Peda also registered assists in the match, though Peda’s assist was not directly on a goal; the official stat line credited both substitutes with an assist each, reflecting their involvement in the build-up play.

The match featured four yellow cards. Bereszynski was booked in the seventh minute, Peda in the 31st, Doumbia in the 74th and Compagnon in the 90th minute of added time.

Palermo fell to 17 wins, five losses and 10 draws in Serie B play. In all competitions, Palermo’s record is 36 wins, 16 losses and 16 draws.
