Bologna defeated Verona 2-0

Bologna defeated Verona 2-0 to extend their winning streak to five games and climb to fourth place in the Serie A standings. At Stadio Renato Dall'Ara, goals from Giovanni Fabbian and Remo Freuler each side of halftime gave the home team a well-earned three points. Bologna's recent winning streak—which included victories over Sassuolo, Lecce, Fiorentina, and Lazio—was maintained by the outcome, which also boosted their chances of qualifying for the UEFA Champions League for the first time. Up next are tougher tests against Atalanta and league leaders Inter.

Verona's loss puts them in the relegation zone in 18th place and prolongs their winless streak to six games. From the start, Thiago Motta's team had a good advantage, and in the 27th minute, a corner gave them the opportunity to break the tie.
