PARMA, Italy — Gaetano Oristanio came on at halftime and scored a late equalizer for Parma in a hard-fought 1-1 home draw against Cagliari in Serie A on Friday.
Match Summary
Michael Folorunsho put Cagliari ahead 18 minutes into the second half with a stunning 30-meter strike. The midfielder, on loan from Napoli, missed the previous 10 games through injury and was introduced just after the hour mark.
Two minutes after entering the game, Folorunsho spied Parma goalkeeper Edoardo Corvi off his line. His dipping shot from near the right touchline flew over Corvi's head and into the far corner of the net.
Oristiano's goal seven minutes from time earned Parma a point but its poor home form continues. The club has won only two of its last 12 home games and has not won two in a row at Stadio Ennio Tardini since January 2020.
Table Impact
Parma has taken 10 points from its last 12 matches and moves into 11th place, a point behind Lazio and a point ahead of Udinese.
The goal was Cagliari's first since January but leaves it without a win in four games. It sits in 13th spot, six points above the relegation zone.
