A goal in either half from Saphir Sliti Taider and Davide Moscardelli saw Bologna claim a 2-0 victory from their trip to Parma in Serie A this evening.

The away side began the encounter brightly and opened the scoring with just six minutes on the clock. The Parma rearguard failed to clear a free kick and Taider was on hand to convert from 18 yards out.

The hosts then went on to dominate the remainder of the half, but Amauri in particular spurned a number of goalscoring chances.

Following an even start to the second half, the match was put beyond Parma's reach 14 minutes from time when Alessandro Diamanti played in Moscardelli, who found the net from close range.
