AC Milan faced a heartbreaking defeat against newly-promoted Parma! Discover the juicy details of this Serie A thriller!

In a match that left fans gasping in disbelief, newly-promoted Parma pulled off a thrilling victory against the iconic AC Milan, winning 2-1 on matchday 2 of the Serie A 2024/25 season at Stadio Tardini. The Rossoneri, under new head coach Paulo Fonseca, made several changes to their starting XI after a disappointing opener, but it seemed the squad still had some kinks to iron out. As their hopes for a swift title challenge began to crumple, it was evident that the sharp-tongued antics of Serie A were alive and well.

The match kicked off with a shaky start for AC Milan, who were desperately seeking to gain momentum after their initial draw. With renowned USMNT star Christian Pulisic leading their front line, fans were hopeful of an electrifying performance. Pulisic managed to light a spark by scoring his first Serie A goal, causing a brief eruption of cheers amongst the Rossoneri’s faithful. Sadly for them, the night would take a more somber turn as Parma’s Matteo Cancellieri produced a stunning strike, swooping in for the win and snatching the spotlight away from Milan’s celebrated reputation.

With Parma reveling in a well-deserved victory, that magic of lower-league teams upstaging the giants of Serie A was reignited. The lacklustre display from AC Milan drew questions about their league strategies, while the players' performance was critiqued, with certain members receiving less than stellar player ratings. As the clock ticked down and fans held their breath, the tantalizing tension of the match was palpable. However, in the end, it was a shaking reminder of how unpredictable football can be, with triumph and sorrow residing close to one another.

As this match left a bitter taste for AC Milan, it also sparked friendly debate across stadiums throughout South Africa and beyond. Football, after all, is not just a game – it’s a passion filled with enthralling plot twists! Fun fact: this defeat marks AC Milan's slowest start to a Serie A season since the 2005-06 campaign when they also lost their second match, a tale of woe that not even the most devoted Rossoneri could have predicted. Not to be overshadowed, Parma celebrated this victory fondly as an iconic moment in their promotion journey.

So, here's to football enthralling us, leaving us cheering and gasping simultaneously! Did you know that Parma's last significant win over AC Milan dates back to 2015? They sure made sure to remind everyone about it on this lovely August evening! Every match tells a story, and in this thrilling chapter, Parma proved they truly belong in Serie A. What will happen next in this rollercoaster season? Stay tuned!
