With the game still goalless in the 35th minute, Lewis Ferguson put visitors Bologna in front. The goal made it 0-1 at the Stadio Luigi Ferraris, and Bologna carried that lead into half-time. It was the opening act of a match that would change hands dramatically later on.

Just after the restart, in the 47th minute, an own goal doubled Bologna's advantage to 0-2. Having taken a one-goal lead into the break, the visitors saw the margin stretch to two early in the second half. That left hosts Genoa needing two goals simply to draw level.

Trailing by two, Genoa finally struck back through Ruslan Malinovskyi in the 62nd minute. His goal cut the deficit to 1-2 and brought the home side within a single goal. It proved to be the first step in a remarkable turnaround.
78' Caleb Ekuban (Genoa) 2-2
Sixteen minutes after Malinovskyi's strike, Caleb Ekuban levelled the score at 2-2 in the 78th minute. Genoa, once 0-2 down, had now erased the entire deficit in the second half alone. With the clock running down, the contest became a race for a winner.
90'+1 Junior Messias (Genoa) 3-2
In the 90+1st minute, with the score locked at 2-2, Junior Messias put Genoa ahead for the first time. It stood as the winner, completing a 3-2 comeback victory for the hosts after trailing 0-2. For Bologna, a two-goal lead had slipped away entirely in the second half.
