After holding Pescara to a 1-1 draw at home on Tuesday, Bologna have confirmed their promotion back to Serie A.
Bologna has been promoted back to Serie A at the first time of asking after drawing 1-1 with Pescara in the second leg of their Serie B playoff on Tuesday, with Gianluca Sansone scoring the crucial goal in a dramatic encounter.
Due to teams' table position in the regular season being the main tie breaker in the event of an aggregate draw in the playoff, Bolgona only needed to avoid defeat to clinch its promotion after playing out a goalless draw in Pescara on Friday and it prevailed despite a tense second half.
