TURIN, Italy (AP) — Parma scored two own goals in two minutes to overturn a close game in a 4-1 loss to Torino in Serie A on Friday.
Giovanni Simeone scored his second goal in three games to give Torino a 1-0 lead after three minutes, but Matteo Pellegrino equalized for Parma 17 minutes later.
However, Parma hit the self-destruct button early in the second half.
First, in the 55th minute, Enrico Delprato diverted Che Adams’ shot into his own net, and two minutes later Mandela Keita was unlucky to see Simeone’s shot hit the bar, hit the goal line, and bounced into the net.
Duvan Zapata added a fourth goal in stoppage time to secure a comfortable victory for Torino.
Torino achieved their second win in six games, moving up two places to 13th place.
With this loss, Parma’s five-game unbeaten streak ended and they remained in 12th place, one point ahead of Torino.
