Genoa won 2-1 in a comeback against Lecce in the Serie A match at 12.30 at Marassi. The turnaround was completed at 76' with Ekuban scoring the 2-1 goal, which allowed the red and blues to conquer three important points. The embrace of number 18 with Retegui became the image of the Ligurians' victory, which, however, wanted to make the afternoon more memorable. The match, in fact, ended shortly after Jannik Sinner and for the victory image, the griffins decided to pay tribute to the South Tyrolean himself.

Ekuban-Retegui like Sinner

During the first half, Krstovic had unlocked the result with a deflected shot, which took an impossible trajectory for Martinez. At 70', Retegui had momentarily shortened the result. Ekuban's net then allowed Genoa to reach the end in the lead and celebrate the three points in the best way. Since the victory came shortly after that of the Italian tennis player, the official profile of X of the club appeared the photo of the two attackers who hug each other, but instead of being on the field of Marassi they are lying on the ground on the Rod Laver Arena, on which Sinner himself won exulting lying on the ground.

The shot became viral causing a lot of fun on social media, which continued with another post from the club that congratulated Jannik for the Australian Open victory. In the published post, however, the photo does not show the 2001-born tennis player, but one of the models who took part in the presentation of the second jersey of Genoa. The boy in question looks a lot like Sinner given the red hair cut that reminds of the South Tyrolean. «Congratulations Jannik! Oops, wrong photo», this is the text that accompanied the photo with which the Ligurians wanted to celebrate in their own way the result of the twenty-two year old.
