Parma stunned AC Milan with a late goal from Mariano Troilo to claim a famous 1-0 win at the Stadio Giuseppe Meazza.
Parma dealt a significant blow to AC Milan’s Serie A title hopes today with a shock 1-0 win at the Stadio Giuseppe Meazza. Defender Mariano Troilo emerged as the unlikely hero, finding the net in the 80th minute.
AC Milan came into the match in good form, sitting second in the league table with 54 points, looking to close the gap on the leaders. Parma, on the other hand, finished 12th with 29 points, aiming to improve their inconsistent run and move away from mid-table congestion.
From the start, Milan pressed high, immediately dominating possession with 67% control throughout the match. Veteran midfielder Luka Modrić orchestrated many of Milan’s early attacks, dictating the pace from the center.
Christian PuliÅ¡ić showed his intent, unleashing four shots in the first half alone, three of which tested the Parma goalkeeper. However, Parma’s disciplined defence, led by goalkeeper Edoardo Corvi, rejected the hosts’ numerous attempts, holding up under the pressure.
The first half saw a yellow card for Milan’s Alexis Saelemaekers in the 32nd minute for an errant challenge. Despite Milan’s persistent efforts and 17 shots inside the box, the score remained goalless at the break.
Despite AC Milan’s overwhelming control and 1.33 expected goals (xG), they were unable to break the deadlock. Parma’s strong defensive display and tactical discipline kept the scores level, setting the stage for a tense second half.
The second half began with more warning; Mariano Troilo received a yellow card in the 48th minute, followed by Rafael Leao for unsportsmanlike conduct in the 52nd minute. Milan made the first changes, bringing on P. Estupinan and N. Fullkrug for Christian Pulišić and A. Jashari in the 62nd minute to provide fresh offensive impetus.
Parma continued to defend bravely, with Corvi proving to be an impenetrable barrier, making several vital saves. Milan pushed harder, with multiple efforts off target and blocked, growing increasingly frustrated as the clock ticked down.
Then, in the 80th minute, a moment of magic broke the deadlock. Parma defender Mariano Troilo broke into the box and scored deep, assisted by Emanuele Valeri, to give the visitors an impressive lead.
The goal encouraged Parma, who then held on to their advantage. Milan threw everything forward in the closing minutes, including two late substitutions, but could not find an equalizer against a determined Parma.
The statistics highlighted Milan’s dominance in open play, registering a total of 25 shots with 6 on target, compared to Parma’s 9 shots with 3 on target. Corvi’s five crucial saves were decisive in Parma’s unexpected triumph.
This shock 0-1 defeat is a significant setback for AC Milan’s Scudetto aspirations, halting their positive form. For Parma, this vital away win boosts their confidence and brings crucial points to their Serie A campaign.
