Bologna beat Parma 2-1 away for their fourth consecutive victory under new coach Raffaele Palladino.
Palladino takes charge
Bologna had taken one point from their opening four Serie A matches under Domenico Tedesco, with all three defeats finishing 1-0. Tedesco was fired on September 16 and Palladino was brought in.
The four-match winning run
Bologna’s four consecutive victories came against Cagliari, Milan, Monza and Parma, with three of those wins away from home.
Orsolini on the change
“The coach arrived in a bit of a rush, because we had started so badly and there was no time to discuss too much. We had to win games, he did well to get us all on the same page and bring us back together, seeing as this was a team that had done well over the years. We lost some important players over the summer, but the skeleton of that team remained,” Riccardo Orsolini told DAZN Italia after the 2-1 win away to Parma.
“I’ve been here for many years and went through a lot of different situations. I enjoyed myself with Thiago Motta, with Vincenzo Italiano, and now we are enjoying ourselves again with Palladino,” Orsolini said.
“I don’t know how far this team can go, but we want to enjoy ourselves together. We rediscovered our smile,” Orsolini said.
Orsolini scores on return
Orsolini scored his second goal of the season in his fifth appearance, having returned from almost a month out with a thigh injury.
