Lecce and Cremonese have been promoted to Serie A after a remarkable competition in the second round of Italy.
Cremonese returned to the top of Italian football after 1995-96, and Lecce returned after a two-season absence.
On Friday, four teams competed for two automated promotion locations, with Monza and Pisa also competing.
Lecce led the final round to the summit, beating bottom-placed Pordenone 1-0 at home by Zan Majer.
Monza knew he would beat Perugia to advance to the top flight, but in the final five minutes Gabriel Ferraini scored in a 1-0 victory.
The Cremonese took full advantage of a 2-1 win over Stadio Giuseppe Sinigaglia thanks to some of Samuel Di Carmine's goals.
It was a 2-1 win over Pisa in Frosinone, and the Nerazzurri needed to settle for a play-off semi-final position, making no sense in the terms of the automatic promotion race.
In the win over Lecce against Perugia, Brescia will advance to the quarter-finals, while Ascoli will face Benevento.
It is a three-way battle to avoid the remaining one, so it is active on both sides.
With Alessandria losing 1-0, team-mate Vincenza joined Pordenone and Crotone to leave the club.
