Simone Lontani - Soccer News, Rumors, & Updates | FOX Sports

Nets equalizer as substitute Lontani scored one goal to go with two shots (two on goal) and four crosses (zero accurate) in Sunday's 1-1 draw versus Monza.

Impact Lontani came off the bench in the second half of Sunday's 1-1 draw with Monza and scored his first Serie A goal at 60', placing the ball into the corner after Demba Thiam had initially saved his effort but the rebound fell kindly to the 2008-born forward to finish. The young Italian started Parma's first two league matches before being moved to the bench, and his goal on his first substitute appearance of the season gives the coaching staff a productive attacking option to deploy from the bench.

Sends in two crosses versus Juventus Lontani recorded two crosses (zero accurate), one interception and two corners and drew two fouls in Saturday's 2-0 defeat versus Juventus.

Impact Lontani has opened the season as a starter, as Parma were late to replenish their frontline after some exits, and has mostly looked good, considering his age, despite not putting up big numbers. He'll face competition from Jose David Romero, Pontus Almqvist and Nesta Elphege going forward. He has registered two crosses (one accurate) and at least one corner (three total) in the first two games, taking one off-target shot and creating one chance.
