Parma won 3-0 away at Atalanta in the tenth round of Serie A, in the late match at the New Balance Arena in Bergamo. Corriere dello Sport reports goals from Giovanni Fabbian, Simone Lontani and an own goal by Davide Zappacosta. Kicker places Lontani's strike in the 58th minute.

The result gave Alberto Gilardino his first win as Parma coach. Atalanta, coached by Maurizio Sarri, were whistled by their own supporters at the final whistle, according to Tuttosport, while Corriere dello Sport described the defeat as a collapse at home.

Lontani, 18, has made nine appearances this season, scoring twice with an average rating of 6.74 in FootVal's data. FootVal's valuation of him is €8.2m, against his market value of €6m on Transfermarkt, and his contract runs to June 2030.

The reports do not say what the defeat means for Atalanta's position in the table. The next fixtures for both clubs will show whether Parma can build on the result.
