On Saturday, two matches of the 27th round of the Italian championship took place - the match between "Reggina" and "Livorno" ended in a draw, while "Fiorentina" managed to overcome a two-goal deficit and win away against "Parma" with a score of 4-2.
Just two minutes after the start of the match between the teams of "Parma" and "Fiorentina," a penalty kick was awarded to the guests, which was successfully converted by Brazilian Fabio Simplicio. Fifteen minutes later, the hosts managed to double the lead. After a mistake by the "Fiorentina" goalkeeper Bogdan Lobonte, Mark Bresciano sent the ball into the guests' net and the score became 2-0 in favor of "Parma."
It seemed like "Fiorentina" was in a hopeless situation, but this team was saved by the young club's super talent Valeri Bojinov. In the 35th minute, the hosts' defenders left this Bulgarian free during a penalty kick and he sent the ball into the net with his head. Four minutes later, V. Bojinov was able to equalize the score, this time sending the ball into the net with a shot with his foot.
This spark of the Bulgarian crushed the hosts' eleven, and four minutes into the second half, "Fiorentina" scored their third goal when the "Parma" goalkeeper Luca Bucci was defeated by the Dane Martin Jorgensen. Twenty minutes later, the guests scored their fourth goal from a corner and completely defeated the "Parma" team.
In other matches, "Reggina" played a draw at home with a score of 1-1 against "Livorno," who will fight for a place in next year's UEFA Cup. The guests took the lead with a long shot goal from Stefano Morrone at the beginning of the second half, but Francesco Cozza equalized with a header in the middle of the half.
