The two youngest teams in the championship share the stakes this Sunday in Serie A. Empoli takes the lead in the first half Tardinibut in the second half Parma found the equalizer with Charpentier and came close to taking the lead with Bonny who missed a penalty kick. The ducals collect another draw, Empoli returns to score points.

The organization of Empoli
Empoli plays well, very well. After the good performance against Napoli, D’Aversa’s boys also play with great personality on the Parma pitch from the first minutes. An organized team, which defensively concedes practically nothing to the ducals and which never gives up on building its own actions, with an asymmetrical 3-4-3 and several potential good opportunities, especially with Colombo and Solbakken.

Own goal by Coulibaly
A beautiful team action scores the 1-0 for Roberto D’Aversa’s boys, on the Colombo-Gyasi-Fazzini axis. The attacker slots in for the winger, who from a tight angle puts the ball to the kiss for the insertion of Fazzini, anticipated by Coulibaly at the last second, but the ducal defender throws it in himself. 0-1 in Parma.

Parma finds the right equalizer
In the second half Parma tried to react and began to raise the engine speed, also encouraged by the fans Tardini. Bonny tries from distance, but finds excellent opposition from Vasquez. Further on, Bernabé comes close to scoring, from a free kick, but the Empoli goalkeeper surpasses himself again. The ducals are now much better on the pitch, also reinvigorated by Pecchia’s substitutions. And just with a substitution comes the equalizer: Charpentier comes on and ten minutes from the end he takes advantage of Valori’s cross and the Azzurri defense’s sleep to make it 1-1.

Bonny misses from the spot
Empoli disappears, Parma takes all the show and a few minutes later also has a great chance to complete the turnaround. Vasquez knocks out Almqvist on the way out, for the referee there is no doubt: penalty kick. Bonny appears from the diskette Tardini he is ready to explode but the scream of joy remains stuck in his throat: the attacker misses the penalty and the score remains 1-1. A result that lasts until the end.
