ROSSONERE BOUNCE BACK WITH 3-1 WIN OVER PARMA

MATCH REPORT It was a real battle from the very first moments. In the 4th minute, Distefano narrowly missed the target, while Uffren fired over the bar ten minutes later. The Rossonere’s first real attacking move proved decisive: after sustained pressure, Arrigoni opened the scoring in the 14th minute with a powerful strike from the edge of the box, aided by a slight deflection off Ambrosi. A chance from a corner followed in the 19th minute, but Soffia’s left-footed effort drifted off target. Parma struck back a minute later in spectacular fashion, as Uffren found the net from midfield with an unstoppable left-footed effort beyond Giuliani. Milan’s response came through Stokić, whose shot on a sixpence in the 25th minute was saved by Copetti. Further efforts followed for the Serbian attacker, first seeing a shot blocked on the half-hour mark and then narrowly failing to connect with an inviting cross from Mascarello in the 34th minute.

The Rossonere returned for the second half unchanged and immediately looked more dangerous, with Grimshaw going close in the 48th minute after narrowly missing contact inside the six-yard box. AC Milan raised the tempo and continued to attack with intensity. Just past the hour mark, Kyvåg tested Copetti with a difficult save at her near post. A goal seemed only a matter of time, and it arrived in the 66th minute when Grimshaw turned home from close range on the back of Koivisto’s driven effort, capping another flowing attacking move. Milan kept pushing for a third, with chances falling to Keijzer in the 72nd minute and Arrigoni in the 84th. The third goal eventually arrived right on the 90-minute mark, Grimshaw heading home from close range after Copetti had parried Kyvåg’s initial effort.
