Juventus beat Parma 2-0

The clash between Juventus and Parma unfolded at the Allianz Stadium in Torino as part of the 2026-27 Serie A campaign. Both sides entered the match looking to add three points, but it was the Bianconeri who dictated the tempo in a tightly contested encounter.

How it unfolded

The opening stages were marked by a series of cautions. In the 10th minute, Juventus defender Jhon Lucumí received a yellow card for a bad foul, an early reminder that the match would be physically intense. The first half continued without further incident, and the teams went into the break level at 0-0.

The second half began with another booking, this time for Juventus midfielder Manuel Locatelli in the 54th minute, again for a bad foul. Just a minute later, Parma’s Enrico Del Prato was shown a yellow card, reducing the defensive discipline on both sides.

The deadlock was broken in the 62nd minute when Nico González unleashed a left-footed shot from outside the box that curled into the bottom left corner, giving Juventus a 1-0 lead. The goal shifted the momentum, with Juventus gaining confidence and Parma forced to chase the game.

Parma’s frustration manifested in a further caution when Mariano Troilo was booked for a bad foul in the 78th minute. The visitors pushed forward but could not find a breakthrough.

Juventus restored their advantage in the 88th minute. Teun Koopmeiners, operating from the left side of the box, struck a left-footed shot that flew into the bottom right corner. The move was set up by an incisive pass from Manuel Locatelli, who earned the assist. The 2-0 scoreline effectively sealed the result.

In injury time, Parma’s Abdou-Salam Konate received a yellow card for a bad foul in the 90+3 minute, capping a match that saw five bookings in total.
