Twist, show, five goals: Bologna and Turin amuse the Dall’Ara audience and give a sparkling Friday evening. It ends 3-2 for Bologna at the last breath thanks to a Biraghi’s own goal: it opens Ndoye, even of Vlasic, Elmas makes the 1-2, even on Ndoye still penalty. First defeat of 2025 for Vanoli, Italian rises in the standings in seventh place with three more points than Milan.

Play Bologna

It rains, in Bologna, at least from lunchtime. Of course, the Dall’Ara camp is affected: on the right wing, for example, it is a rice field. There would be all the conditions for a dirty game. Instead, the first half of Bologna-Turin overturns the prediction, a fun fraction comes out and with a good football offer. The Italian group is very strong, indeed very strong: for half an hour it is dominant in almost all areas of the field, to say the least impregnable on the bands with Ndoye and Dominguez. When Vanoli manages to buffer the suffering on the lanes, in the last quarter of an hour of the first half the organization emerges and also the big heart of the Taurus. Many episodes on the notebook. After two minutes, a nice combination Miranda-Castro produces the first shot of the challenge. At 11 ‘Milinkovic must put the fists on the waving of a unleashed Pobega. Clou episode: at 13 ‘Sosa enters the Ndoye, Pobega takes advantage of it and signs a change of game for Dominguez. Ball in the area, Velo di Pobega, Linetty contrast with Ndoye. From the field the referee Fabbri assigns the penalty, but Dionisi from the Var recalls it to the monitor: there is Ndoye’s foul on the Linetty calf and rightly the penalty is canceled. But the (well -deserved) advantage of Bologna is in the air: it comes after twenty minutes, a ball lost by Adams, restart with Freuler: the assist is from Pobega, Ndoye Baffa Coco in speed and slips Milinkovic.

The bull replies

Tramorted and, visibly, in difficulty the Toro finds the energies and the strength to react. At 27 ‘First flash of Vlasic, Adams service but Skorupski’s intervention is decisive. The first half ending is grenade that respond to Bologna. Minute 36 ‘: Adams goes from midfield by exploiting a beukema error, Karamoh is needed in the middle who – sensationally – slips and cannot beat the net. Vanoli cursed in front of the bench. A minute later, however, the Toro finds the right draw: Adams launches Maripan who runs throughout the field to put Vlasic in front of the door; Holm slips and the 1-1 goal is for the Croatian.

Elmas jewel

In the second half Bologna rites to the attack more with courage than with the game. But the history of Bologna-Turin changes to 62 ‘when Paolo Vanoli raises the Elmas bench: for the Macedonian it is the debut with the grenade shirt. He needs three little minutes to leave the signature: the assist is by Adams, the rest does Elmas. Tunnel in Beukema, Scavetto in Skorupski: Bull forward 2-1. However, the game is infinite: at 23 ‘Casadei overwhelms Pobega, a penalty for Bologna transformed by Ndoye. We are on 2-2. But it is not over, because in 90 ‘an harmless shot by Castro is deflected in the Milinkovic mirror. It is the 3-2 of Bologna, it makes Italian party.
