Bologna, 8 February 2026 – A huge win for the Gialloblù, who beat Bologna in the 95th minute thanks to Christian Ordoñez’s first-ever Serie A goal. Playing with a numerical advantage from the 22nd minute following Pobega’s red card, Cuesta’s side managed and controlled the match well. A goal was ruled out in the 69th minute after Castro headed into his own net, with Pellegrino caught offside in the build-up.
Later, the Gialloblù themselves were reduced to ten men after Troilo received a second yellow card, allowing the Rossoblù to mount a response. Orsolini struck the post in the 89th minute, but the closing stages belonged entirely to Parma. Ordoñez struck a superb right-footed shot from outside the area into the bottom corner, while Corvi, named man of the match, twice kept the door shut with two outstanding saves: one from Delprato’s header in the 97th minute and another a minute later from an Orsolini effort, tipped out for a corner. Parma moved up to 26 points and will next be in action at the Tardini against Hellas Verona.
