Ten minutes later, Matteo looked at Shevchenko's head in his mind with satisfaction, and his mood was very good.

Although he missed the opportunity to absorb Gattuso's skills, compared with Shevchenko, Gattuso was nothing.

Although Gattuso was also a very good player, he had never reached Shevchenko's level.

After winning this game, Parma won four consecutive games and also came to the sixth place in the standings.

After the poor performance at the beginning of the season, they also relied on their recent amazing performance to stabilize their position in the European war zone!

At this time, their reputation has been completely reversed, and some people are even discussing the possibility of their entry into the European war.

And Matteo also made the front page headlines of major sports newspapers with his wonderful performance in this game.

Some people have even called for him to be directly selected for the national team!

However, this news made Alessandro a little worried.

After all, his son is only seventeen years old now. If he is really recruited into the national team, he will definitely play more games, which is definitely a burden on his body.

Fortunately, there have been no national team matches recently, which allowed him to temporarily put this problem behind him.

Just after playing this league match with AC Milan, Parma ushered in an Italian Cup match.

Parma challenged Novara away.

In this match, Parma sent all substitutes to train the troops.

However, their strength is still obviously stronger than Novara. The final score was 2-1, and Parma won away.

After winning this game, they entered the Italian Cup round of 16, and the next opponent will be Bologna.

According to their strength, they are also likely to defeat their opponents and advance to the quarterfinals.

However, Alessandro and De Zerbi had a conversation at the beginning of the season. They both believed that the Italian Cup can only be defined as training, and they should not focus on it.

After playing the Italian Cup, Parma will face Chievo at home.

Chievo has now come to the last place in the standings. After playing a few good games at the beginning of the season with blood and courage, they have begun to decline at the speed of light.

Poor recruitment and financial problems are undoubtedly fatal for this small team.

Matteo certainly knows their ending, so he sighed in his heart.

Of course, Parma will not hold back in this game, after all, they now need points to hit higher goals.

Parma still fielded a full lineup in this game.

Matteo and Rossi, who were rested in the Italian Cup, appeared in the starting lineup.

Chievo fielded a 4312 formation, goalkeeper Sorrentino, back line Schelotto, Rossettini, Tomovic, Pavel Jaroshenski, midfielder Rigoni, Diosi, Obi, front midfielder Giaccherini, forwards Pellissier and Stepinski.

This lineup is naturally unable to compete with Parma.

In the fifth minute, Parma launched an attack on the right, and Odegaard dribbled inside and attracted Jaroshenski's defense, leaving a large gap for Klaus on the right.

Odegaard did not hesitate and passed the ball directly to Klaus.

After receiving the ball, the French full-back even had enough time to observe the situation in the penalty area. He aimed at Mateo and sent a cross with an excellent landing point.

And Mateo did not disappoint his kindness. He jumped high and overpowered the opponent's two central defenders to head the ball into the goal!

One to zero, Mateo helped the team take the lead!

And Parma also got off to a very good start!

But when there are joys, there are sorrows. Parma was jubilant, but the players on Chievo's side were very frustrated.

They knew they couldn't beat Parma, but they didn't expect to lose the ball so early!

Captain Pellissier ran back from the front court and kept cheering for everyone, hoping that everyone could cheer up and equalize the score first.

But the players' eyes were a little erratic at this time. Obviously, they didn't believe they could equalize the score.

Seeing this, Pellissier could only sigh in his heart.

Before the game, he and the head coach had spent a long time preparing the players mentally, but once the ball was lost, all their work was in vain.

This also made him realize that the game might be over again.

Sure enough, in the following game, Parma had an absolute advantage.

In the 17th minute, this time it was the middle road that formed a cooperation, McAllister and Mateo formed a continuous cooperation, and the opponent's defense line was disintegrated bit by bit.

McAllister brought the ball to the top of the penalty area, and Mateo inserted diagonally into the penalty area to attract the Chievo defender.The Argentine also knew Mateo's intention, and he suddenly sent a pass in the opposite direction of Mateo! Gervinho suddenly appeared on the passing line, he made a slight adjustment, and shot directly! The football flew into the goal without any suspense. Two to zero, Parma almost locked the victory! This goal made the whole Chievo team feel desperate. They no longer had the strength to attack, and the defense was full of loopholes under Parma's high pressure. Soon, they made another mistake in the 30th minute, and Odegaard seized the opportunity to score another goal through a single knife. Three to zero, Parma completely locked the victory. It can be said that from this moment on, the rest of the time is all garbage time. Parma did not continue to be ruthless, they began to play ball control, which made the Chievo players very helpless. Pellissier ran helplessly in the frontcourt. He wanted to press the opponent's defenders, but they played the ball very quickly, which made his pressing useless.

In the end, the 39-year-old veteran was also tired. He held his knees from time to time, and his eyes were full of helplessness and unwillingness.

In the entire second half, the game fell into a state of doing nothing. The attackers did not want to attack, and the defenders did not want to press. Everyone seemed to be waiting for the end of the game.

The referee also felt a little bored. He did not even give a minute of stoppage time in the end. As soon as the 90th minute came, he blew the whistle to end the game.

The game was suspenseful. In the end, Parma defeated the opponent 3-0 and continued their winning streak.

And they have now won five consecutive games, with a total of 29 points, only two points less than Lazio, which ranks fifth!

Chievo has slid another step towards the abyss of relegation.

At the moment when the whistle blew at the end of the game, Pellissier's eyes showed confusion.

He already had a feeling that Chievo's relegation this season seemed inevitable...
