Cagliari ended the first half of the Tardini with a 1-0 lead over Parma thanks to the seventeenth goal of the season by striker Lapadula .

Ranieri chooses Deiola in midfield in place of Lella and, in attack, focuses on Prelec with Falco and Lapadula.

Parma starts strong, Cagliari controls without too many worries. In the 19th minute, however, on Estevez 's insertion Radunovic was good at closing the door. Three minutes later, the Gialloblù's Argentine tries again from distance, but the ball goes just wide.

Then the rossoblùs come out and, in the 32nd minute, pass. Played entirely vertically, from Obert to Prelec for Lapadula, who burns Cobbaut, bypasses Buffon and scores .

Parma shuts down and leaves the field to Ranieri's team, who in the 37' comes close to an encore with Azzi, whose starting point ends with a close-range left foot. In the 41st minute, Falco-Nandez-Falco and the ex-Stella Rossa's shot was blocked by Cobbaut .

The last attempt is from Parma, with the usual Estevez, but Radunovic is there.
