Serie A: Juventus Forced to Draw Again: Parma's Delprato Secures 2-2 Stalemate


Juventus come from behind twice but settle for 2-2 draw with Parma, Enrico Delprato shining at both ends, as Bianconeri's winless streak continues.



Juventus were forced to come from behind twice to secure a 2-2 draw against Parma, with Enrico Delprato proving instrumental at both ends of the pitch.


The Bianconeri, still reeling from their 4-4 thriller with Inter, struggled without Kenan Yildiz in the starting lineup, despite his late brace in the previous match. Injuries to Nico Gonzalez, Douglas Luiz, Arek Milik, and Gleison Bremer further depleted Juventus' roster.


Parma, with only one Serie A victory this season, entered the match on the back of three consecutive draws. Despite long-term absentees Alessandro Circati and Mateusz Kowalski, Fabio Pecchia's Ducali put up a formidable fight.


Parma took the lead through Enrico Delprato's header from Adrian Bernabé's cross. Juventus wasted chances, including Dusan Vlahovic's missed rebound from three yards.


Weston McKennie's header leveled the score, but Parma regained the lead through Simon Sohm's drill. Francisco Conceicao's cross was volleyed in by Timothy Weah, securing Juventus' second equalizer.


The match ended in a thrilling 2-2 stalemate, with Delprato clearing Kenan Yildiz's last-minute attempt off the line.
