Chievo 1 : 2 Parma - Parma grateful for Luciano own goal



I have a say

Posted Sunday, February 05, 2012 by PA

Luciano's own goal handed Parma a 2-1 victory in their midtable clash at Chievo.

Luciano diverted Sebastian Giovinco's shot past goalkeeper Stefano Sorrentino to settle the match.

Giovinco had put the visitors in front a minute after half-time, but Cyril Thereau levelled four minutes later.

The hosts started brightly and Sergio Pellissier just failed to get a touch to Davide Moscardelli's low ball across the six-yard box.

Moscardelli then teed up Kamil Vacek, who missed badly from close range.

At the other end Giovinco was denied by a wonder save from Sorrentino, who somehow kept out his effort from point-blank range in front of goal.

Chievo continued to create chances, though, and Paolo Sammarco forced a great stop from Nicola Pavarini with a volley from inside the area.

Cristian Zaccardo had the ball in the net for Parma a minute before the break, but the whistle had already gone for a foul.

But the visitors went in front a minute after the interval as Giovinco fired emphatically past Sorrentino with his left foot.

The lead lasted just four minutes as defender Gabriel Paletta inexplicably failed to cut out a pass, leaving Thereau to slot home the equaliser.

The hosts had Sorrentino to thank for keeping them on level terms by saving Sergio Floccari's effort before Paletta headed wide.

A second Parma goal was coming and it arrived in the 69th minute, Luciano deflecting Giovinco's shot inside the right post.

Chievo pushed for a leveller but could not find a way past Pavarini as he kept out Francesco Acerbi's header and grabbed the ball at the feet of Alberto Paloschi.
