The derby between Sassuolo and Parma on the fifth day of the Women's Serie A ended in a goalless draw, 0-0, leaving both teams in the risk zone of the standings. The match, played on Saturday 31 October, did not produce any goals, but showed the determination of both Emilian teams, who are trying to avoid relegation.
On the same day, Ternana Women drew 1-1 with Como 1907, with Bonfantini scoring in the opener and Strode responding in added time. The Sassuolo-Parma result, although goalless, was still significant for both teams, as both are in low positions in the table. At the moment, Roma is in the lead with 12 points, followed by Como 1907 with 11 and Inter with 10, while Parma and Sassuolo occupy 12th position with 2 points each.
The calendar for next week includes other important matches: Inter-Lazio, Roma-Napoli Women, Como Women-Milan and, on Monday, Fiorentina-Juventus. Teams in the relegation zone will have to deal with a series of difficult challenges to try to improve their position.
With the draw, Sassuolo and Parma will have to concentrate on the next matches to try to gain points and get out of the risk zone. Next week will provide further opportunities to turn things around in the standings.
