FORLI, Italy (Interstat) — FC Forli and US Livorno 1915 played to a 1-1 draw in a Serie C match Sunday at Stadio Tullo Morgagni, a result that did little to improve the precarious league standing of either side.

The match, played March 8, 2026, unfolded largely as projected by Interstat’s game simulator, which had forecast the identical scoreline. The shared points left both clubs mired in the lower half of the league table, with Livorno unable to capitalize on a chance to climb and Forli failing to secure a rare home victory.

The home side started brightly and was rewarded with an early lead. In the 11th minute, Francesco Menarini found the net for FC Forli, sending the home supporters into celebration and setting a positive tone for a team that has struggled for wins this season.

That advantage held for the remainder of the first half as Forli managed the game. US Livorno 1915, however, found an equalizer before the break. In the 42nd minute, Diego Peralta scored for the visiting side, ensuring the teams would enter halftime on level terms.

The second half saw neither side able to break the deadlock. The match concluded with the score unchanged, a fitting result for two teams that have found victories hard to come by throughout the campaign.

With the draw, US Livorno 1915’s record in Serie C competition now stands at five wins, six losses and five draws. Their overall record across all competitions is identical. The club from Tuscany has now drawn three of its last five league matches, showing resilience but also a difficulty in securing maximum points.

For FC Forli, the single point underscores a season of struggle. The club’s Serie C record now sits at two wins, seven losses and five draws, mirroring its overall record. The draw halted a two-game losing streak but extended Forli’s winless run in the league to three matches. Their last victory came on Feb. 28 against Torres Calcio.

The result continues a pattern of closely contested matches for both sides. Livorno’s recent form has been a mix of narrow defeats and draws, including a 2-1 loss to AC Perugia Calcio just four days prior to this match. Forli, meanwhile, was coming off a high-scoring 3-2 defeat at Pineto Calcio on March 4.

The stalemate leaves both teams seeking greater consistency and more decisive results as the Serie C season progresses. For Livorno, the focus will be on turning draws into wins to move up the table. For Forli, the challenge remains more fundamental: finding a way to secure results that can lift them from the league’s basement.
