Jakarta (ANTARA) – Despite their 1-1 draw in the 36th week of Serie B at San Nicola on Thursday morning WIB, Parma became the first club to be promoted to Serie A this season when they visited Bari.
Ange-Yoan Bonny gave Parma the lead in the 50th minute, but Valerio Di Cesare of Bari tied the score at one in the 68th.
Parma now has 74 points, solidifying their position atop the rankings with this one-point victory. According to the official Lega B website, Fabio Pecchia’s team also has the right to go to the Italian Serie A as Venezia, who are in third place with 67 points and have two games left, can no longer catch up to them.

In the meantime, Como, an Indonesian businessman, is about to promote his club. Como has already played 36 games and gained 71 points.
The Hartono Family-owned team simply has to win one more of the next two games to guarantee a spot in Serie A.
In Week 35, Venezia fell to US Catanzano 2-3, which facilitated Parma’s promotion.

The loss of Venezia at the Catanzaro headquarters also prevented Jay Idzes and his companions from climbing up to the second position in the standings.
To secure the title, Parma only has to score more points in the next two games. But if Camo wins the next few games and Parma falters, he still has a chance to win.
Parma’s loss against Cagliari in the playoff semifinals prevented them from being promoted the previous season. Parma has now effectively transitioned to Serie A following three seasons in Serie B.
