Serie A

🔥Thriller at 3pm: Raspa scores, De Rossi stuns Bologna 3-2🤯

by Soccer-News January 25, 2026

written by Soccer-News

What a Sunday in Serie A! The 2 3 PM matches delivered objectives, pleasure, and loads of speaking factors. Atalanta wins convincingly in opposition to Parma, celebrates Raspadori’s first purpose within the black and blue jersey, and briefly strikes to inside 4 factors of Juventus.

In Genoa, nevertheless, the Rossoblù overturn Bologna because of Skorupski’s insanity, who within the 56th minute is shipped off by referee Maresca for stopping a transparent goal-scoring alternative after shedding the ball. For the Polish goalkeeper, it’s a nightmare week, contemplating the opposite huge mistake he made on Thursday within the Europa League match in opposition to Celtic.

Atalanta-Parma

Who is aware of what sort of match we’d have seen if Cuesta had fielded a unique lineup. That’s a query many, particularly in Parma, are absolutely asking themselves, contemplating the slightly questionable choice by the Spanish coach to depart most of his greatest gamers on the bench.

Commercial

With Pellegrino, Oristanio, Valeri, and Ondrejka all initially not noted, the Emilians principally handed themselves over to the Goddess, who gladly accepted and loved a festive afternoon.

Scamacca scores from the penalty spot, then de Roon after a solo run by a rampant De Ketelaere, and Raspadori, who solely has to faucet within the ball served by Krstovic (who later scored the fourth purpose). First pleasure within the Bergamo shirt for the previous Napoli participant.

A simple purpose, with Krstovic doing all of the soiled work and handing the brand new signing the only of balls. Parma protested Krstovic’s problem on Troilo, nevertheless it was the defender who arrived late—so, no foul.

Genoa-Bologna

The match of the afternoon, nevertheless, positively happened at Marassi, the place Genoa handled themselves to a dream day. From hell to heaven, all in 90 minutes.

Commercial

After a primary half and the beginning of the second through which Bologna had taken a snug 0-2 lead because of Ferguson’s purpose and Otoa’s personal purpose, got here Skorupski’s insanity.

😨 Skorupski, what are you doing?

The Polish goalkeeper, again as a starter after harm, comes out of his purpose to attempt to anticipate Colombo, however then misplaces his cross and items the ball to Vitinha. At that time, the foul comes, which interrupts a transparent scoring likelihood and subsequently leads to a purple card.

It’s the 56th minute and, in actual fact, that’s when a brand new match begins. From the ensuing free kick, Malinovskyi invents a bit of magic, even when with the assistance of a not-so-blameless Ravaglia. For the Ukrainian, it’s affirmation: as highlighted by Opta, amongst gamers with at the least 20 objectives in Serie A for the reason that league returned to twenty groups (since 2004/05), solely Pirlo (77% – 24/31) has scored the next share of objectives from outdoors the field than the previous Lecce participant (67%).

At that time, the momentum is all with the house aspect, who equalize within the 78th minute with one other piece of brilliance. This time it’s Ekuban, who picks up a free ball and, with a half overhead kick, sends Marassi wild!

Is that sufficient? In no way, as a result of one of the best (for Genoa) is but to come back.

Commercial

🌈 Messias drives Marassi CRAZY

In stoppage time, at 90’+1, it’s Messias who sends the complete Genoa crowd into raptures. The previous Milan participant manages to attain an much more stunning purpose than the earlier two, drawing a rainbow together with his left foot that finds the highest nook.

It’s Genoa’s day, as they declare three essential factors within the battle for survival. For De Rossi, it’s the fifth sport in a row with out defeat, however this one tastes utterly totally different!

For Italiano, then again, it’s a psychological drama. Within the final 9 matches in all competitions, there’s been just one victory, in Verona. Consequently, the positions that qualify for Europe already appear very distant.
