Parma secured a crucial away victory against bottom-placed Venezia, revitalizing their campaign with a 2-1 comeback win. The match, held at the Stadio Pierluigi Penzo in Venice, saw Parma overcome an early setback to claim all three points.
Venezia struck first, taking the lead just four minutes into the game. Hans Nicolussi Caviglia displayed impressive control and technique, chesting down a cross from Gaetano Oristanio before unleashing a powerful left-footed volley to open the scoring.
However, Parma’s Emanuele Valeri atoned for his earlier defensive lapse by netting the equalizer. The defender capitalized on space afforded to him outside the box during a set-piece routine, driving a low shot into the bottom corner to level the score.
The decisive moment came when Parma launched a counter-attack following a chaotic sequence in their own box. Simon Sohm initiated the move, setting up Dennis Man for a shot that Venezia’s goalkeeper Filip Stankovic could only parry. Substitute Ange-Yoan Bonny was perfectly positioned to pounce on the rebound, giving Parma the lead and ultimately the victory.
The encounter was closely contested, with both teams creating opportunities. Venezia’s Joel Pohjanpalo had a goal disallowed for offside, while Parma’s Benedyczak, returning from a serious injury, came close with a shot that narrowly missed the target.
This win was particularly significant for Parma, who had been struggling with a string of draws and a recent loss. The victory helps them climb the table and gain momentum in their Serie A campaign. For Venezia, the defeat is a bitter pill to swallow, leaving them rooted to the bottom of the league and in desperate need of points to kickstart their season.
