Parma 1-3 Bologna
Bologna came back from being a goal behind to secure a 3-1 victory against Parma in the Derby dell’Emilia, extending their unbeaten streak in Serie A to seven matches (4 wins, 3 draws).

Zaccagni secured the victory by capitalizing on a mistake and curling the ball into the net during second-half stoppage time, moving Lazio up to eighth place in the league.
