Parma responded in the 62nd minute through Romanian player Dennis Man. Man scored after receiving a well-timed pass from Woyo Coulibaly, demonstrating skillful control and composure in front of goal.

As the game progressed, Cagliari regained the lead in the 75th minute. Michel Adopo played a key role in the attack, advancing from midfield and assisting Razvan Marin, who expertly shot into the far corner from the edge of the box.

However, the drama continued as Parma was awarded a penalty in the 87th minute. Brazilian midfielder Hernani successfully converted the spot kick, leveling the scoreline for the second time.

But Cagliari’s resolve did not waver, and just a minute later, Roberto Piccoli scored the decisive goal. His effort ensured the visitors notched their first win of the campaign, much to the relief of their fans.

The match, which took place at Tardini Stadium, highlights Cagliari’s potential as they seek to climb further up the league standings and avoid a relegation battle later in the season.
