Bottom-dweller Cesena fire manager Bisoli after loss to Atalanta

CESENA, Italy (AP) Struggling Serie A club Cesena has fired coach Pierpaolo Bisoli without immediately naming a replacement.

The move comes after the team surrendered a two-goal lead in a 3-2 loss at Atalanta on Sunday, which left the club two points above bottom-placed Parma.

Bisoli was in his third season at Cesena, and had previously coached the club from 2008 to 2010, guiding the team from the third division to Serie A.

An announcement on the club's website thanked Bisoli for its ''historic run'' in recent years.
