Up to that date the Viadana Rugby team had been able to arrange only one match with the youth team of Rugby Parma, coming away beaten 19-9, however it's worth remembering the team list consisting of: Casali, Benazzi, Barosi, De Carli, Petazzini, Sacchi, Aroldi, Gozzi, Bedulli, Farina, Piccoli, Sforza, Rosa, Panicalli, Coppi.
The team was born thanks to an initiative of a number of players who gained their first rugby experience with Rugby Parma, a city they attended for reasons of study.
These were the years of young people's uprising and dissent in general, and this generation certainly didn't lack the effort and desire to create with a perseverance and persistence that today would be rare to find.

Inoltre il Rugby a 15 è popolare in Italia, Romania e Argentina mentre il Rugby a 13 è lo sport nazionale in Papua Nuova Guinea ed è popolare in Russia e Marocco.
Le caratteristiche principali comuni a i tre tipi di Rugby sono il campo di gioco, le porte, il pallone ovale ed il fatto che è vietato passare il pallone in avanti quindi il terreno può essere guadagnato solo correndo con il pallone o calciandolo.
Le particolarità del Rugby a 15 comprendono la "mischia", dove raggruppamenti di giocatori avversari si spingono uno contro l'altro per conquistare il possesso della palla, e la touche dove due file di giocatori tentano di afferrare la palla che viene rimessa dalle linee laterali.

Parma lost Carlo Festuccia, their captain and hooker, to the sin-bin on the half-hour, and, that, ironically, coincided with the longest dry spell in Glasgow’s scoring, though Euan Murray deserved a try when he broke clear to run fully 40 metres.

The extensive changes to their side did not look much of a handicap when Spencer threaded a chip through Parma´s backline for Kydd to open the scoring in the eighth minute with the New Zealander converting for good measure.
Parma were really struggling at the set-pieces, though, and they buckled after eferee David Changleng finally lost patience with their front row and sent prop German Fontana to the sin-bin.
To their credit Parma then dug in once more and it took another 15 minutes for Northampton to score again when Tonga´uiha was bundled over to claim his first try for the club and Spencer stroked over the conversion from the touchline.

 GlosPARMA
The rugby itself seems almost incidental and given that "Glos 99 - GRAN Parma 0" was somewhat of an expected result, I feel there's still a lot more to say on the events immediately after the Newcastle match and the events of the following days.
However anything said during a rugby match especially in the heat of a mass brawl cannot be classed as racism.
With all due respect to Parma, I think they know they are out of their depth against teams from the English Premiership and given that they hadn't won a game in the Shield competition so far, they had nothing to gain from the match at Kingsholm so fielded an under strength side.
