Crotone celebrate 'beautiful' promotion to Serie A
© Gabriele Maltinti/Getty Images for Lega Serie B Crotone will be back in Serie A in 2020-21Crotone president Gianni Vrenna led the celebrations on Friday after his side secured promotion back to Serie A.
A 5-1 thrashing of Livorno and Spezia's draw with Cremonese saw the Pitagorici seal a top-flight spot for just the third time.
Crotone finished 17th in 2016-17 but were relegated a year later.
"This Serie A [promotion] is perhaps the most beautiful success since I've been at Crotone," Vrenna said, as quoted by Tuttomercatoweb.
"We need to enjoy this day of celebration and then let's try to finish the league in the best way. Then, we'll start planning for next season."
Crotone, who have scored a club-record 62 goals in Serie B this season and enjoyed a 12-game winning run, will join Benevento in moving up to the top tier next term.
They host Frosinone on Sunday before concluding their 2019-20 campaign away to Trapani on July 31.
Simy brace seals automatic Serie A promotion for Crotone as Spezia draw at Cremonese
Simy bagged a brace as Crotone earned a 5-1 Italian Serie B win at Livorno and gained automatic promotion to Serie A after Spezia were held to a goalless draw with Cremonese.
The Pythagoreans came into this match six points clear of the Little Eagles and were well aware they would be making it back into the top-flight if they won their match while Spezia failed to garner maximum points at the Stadio Giovanni Zini.
It didn’t start well for Giovanni Stroppa’s men as Livorno took a 12th minute lead thanks to Mattia Trovato.
It was all Crotone from there however with Niccolo Zanellato and Alberto Gerbo netting between Simy’s 35th-minute strike. Junior Messias made a run down the right flank and his pass found Simy who tucked the ball home with consummate ease.
Crotone extended their 3-1 first-half lead after the break via Salvatore Molina before Simy put the final nail in the coffin from the penalty spot in the 59th minute for his 20th Serie B goal of the season which now takes him top of the charts ahead of Pietro Iemmello and Stefano Pettinari.
The 28-year-old Nigeria international simply had a storming game with a total of seven shots, three of which were on target while he also missed two big chances. He made 10 accurate passes which were at 90.9%. Simy equally won four of five total duels.
Crotone are back in the Serie A for the first time since the 2017/18 season when they finished 18th. It was just their second season in the top-flight having gained promotion the previous season for the first time ever and finished in 17th spot.
Simy joined the Calabria outfit in 2017 from Gil Vicente and scored seven goals in 23 outings in that campaign.
Having gone three games without a goal after the restart of Serie B in June, Simy scored in his next three matches which started with a hat-trick against league champions Benevento in a 3-0 win before solo goals against Cittadella and Pordenone.
