Parma and Torino ended the Serie A Week 28 with a draw on Saturday, March 8, 2025, at the Ennio Tardini Stadium in Parma, Italy.  Parma and Torino each earned a point, allowing Parma to pull two points ahead of Empoli. Meanwhile, Torino couldn’t narrow the gap with Udinese, who sits in tenth place, four points clear of the Granata and still has a game in hand.

After trailing at halftime, Chivu brought Pellegrino into the match, and the Argentine scored his first Serie A goal in the 60th minute. Torino appeared to be struggling but regained the lead with a goal from Adams, assisted by Maripan, in the 72nd minute. However, their happiness was short-lived as Pellegrino equalized with a brilliant header from a corner taken by Hernani in the 82nd minute. In the closing moments, Parma looked stronger than Torino, but neither side created significant chances, resulting in a draw. In the upcoming match, Parma will face Monza, while Torino will take on Empoli at home.

Parma has struggled against Torino lately, failing to secure a win in their last four encounters, which include two draws and two losses. Their last victory over Torino dates back to September 30, 2019, when they triumphed 3-2 at home. Additionally, Parma has not found the back of the net in their last three matches against this rival. Historically, they have only experienced a longer goal drought against Torino once, during their first five meetings from December 1990 to September 1992, where they recorded four draws and one loss.

The match …

Torino opened the scoring in the 20th minute when Eljif Elmas found the back of the net with a precise right-footed shot into the bottom right corner. The setup came from Cesare Casadei, who made a great run through the middle before delivering the ball to Elmas at the edge of the box. The Macedonian skillfully controlled it with his right foot and placed it perfectly into the opposite corner. This marks his third goal in the last four matches. Goalkeeper Zion Suzuki was unable to stop it.

Parma brought the score to 1-1 in the 60th minute when Mateo Pellegrino found the back of the net with a left-footed shot aimed at the bottom right corner. Emanuele Valeri set him up with a low cross from the left side, and Pellegrino made no hesitation in finishing it off.

Torino regained the lead in the 72nd minute when Ché Adams found the net with a left-footed shot into the bottom left corner. The goal was set up by Guillermo Maripán, who made a vertical pass to Vlasic, followed by a clever backheel from Maripán, allowing Adams to strike past Suzuki. Torino is back in front!

Parma leveled the match at 2-2 in the 82nd minute. Matteo Pellegrino scored with a brilliant header directed at the high center of the goal. The assist came from Hernani, who sent in a cross following a corner conceded by Ché Adams. Pellegrino’s expertly placed header hit the near post, and Milinkovic-Savic was powerless to stop it, causing the Tardini to burst into cheers!

Stats before the game

The upcoming match will mark the 36th encounter between Parma and Torino in Serie A. Parma (15) has secured more than twice as many victories as Torino (7), with 13 matches ending in a draw, creating an interesting balance. After experiencing five straight losses at Parma, Torino has bounced back, losing just one of their last four Serie A matches at the Tardini (with 2 wins and 1 draw). Notably, following their 3-0 triumph on January 3, 2021, the Granata have the chance to achieve back-to-back wins at the Ducali’s home for the first time in their history.

Following their home win in the Emilian derby against Bologna on February 22 (with goals from Bonny and Sohm), Parma has the chance to achieve back-to-back home victories in the top division for the first time since January 2020, when they defeated both Lecce and Udinese 2-0. Meanwhile, after triumphs over Milan (2-1 at home) and Monza (2-0 away), Torino is aiming to secure three consecutive wins in a single Serie A season for the first time since February and March 2019.

Ange-Yoan Bonny – five league goals for the 2003-born player – is one of only four players born on or after 1 January 2003 to have scored at least five goals in this Serie A, along with Assane Diao (five goals, 2005), Nico Paz (six goals, 2004) and Santiago Castro (seven goals, 2004). The only French player to have scored more than five goals in the Italian top flight before turning 22 was Paul Pogba, who scored his sixth goal in the tournament on 29 September 2013 against Torino, at the age of 20 years and 198 days.

After the goals against Bologna and Monza, Eljif Elmas could score in three consecutive away games for the first time in his career in the top five European leagues. Since his debut in the Granata shirt on February 14, he is the only Torino player to have scored more than one goal (two) and no one has set up a teammate more than once (five, tied with Nikola Vlasic).
