Noceto, 8 October 2025 – The Parma Women’s Second Team could not have asked for a better home debut. In the third matchday of the Coppa Emilia group stage, played on Sunday 5 October, the Gialloblu defeated Fraore 5–0 at the Il Noce Sports Centre in Noceto, securing their place in the semifinals of the competition.

After a rest week – and buoyed by their opening win over San Nicolò – Raffaele Paolicelli’s side started strongly, immediately dictating the pace and showing their quality. Parma broke the deadlock after just three minutes from a corner, and doubled their lead in similar fashion in the 13th minute.

Two more goals before half-time put the result beyond doubt, with the fifth arriving late in the second half to seal a dominant 5–0 victory.

With this win, Parma finish top of their Coppa Emilia group and advance to the semifinals, which will be played as a single-leg tie at the end of February. The venue will be determined by a draw conducted by the regional committee (C.R.E.R). If the match ends level after 90 minutes, the winner will be decided by a penalty shoot-out.

The two semifinal winners will then meet in a neutral venue for the Coppa Emilia final.

After such a promising start to the season, the Gialloblu now turn their focus to the league campaign, which kicks off on Sunday 12 October at 21:00, again at Il Noce in Noceto, where they will face La Rocca 2025.
