Venezia’s Pier Luigi Penzo Stadium is unique in the way it’s accessed via boat, and its location on a man-made island makes the weather conditions extremely variable for away sides.
The unusual venue presumably makes things a bit tricky for visiting teams, who are usually used to getting to away matches in a much more conventional fashion.
Last weekend saw Cesc Fàbregas’ Como become the latest side make the trip to Venice, and they were doing quite well as they made it past the hour mark at 2-1 in front.
But swirling winds and lashing rain gave the home side a helping hand, as attacking midfielder Gaetano Oristanio managed to find the equaliser directly from a corner.
It gave the rain-soaked fans in the stand something to cheer about, but 42-year-old Como ‘keeper Pepe Reina didn’t look too impressed.
