Bologna edged a five-goal thriller, defeating Greek side Levadiakos 3-2 in an International Club Friendly on August 2nd, 2025. This victory provided a positive response after a previous friendly defeat, with Bologna showing attacking verve and resilience to hold on for the win. The Serie A side likely raced into a two-goal lead through their first-choice attackers, but Levadiakos fought back impressively to level the score at 2-2, capitalizing on some defensive lapses. Bologna's winner came in the final quarter of the match, perhaps from a substitute, restoring their lead and ensuring they ended their pre-season camp on a high note. While the result is not competitively significant, it helped build momentum and match sharpness for Bologna's squad players. The managers used the fixture to experiment with formations and give minutes to all members of the traveling party.
