Genoa thrashed 10-1 by Bournemouth in England friendly

Genoa suffered a humiliating 10-1 defeat to Bournemouth in a friendly match in England, marking their first loss of the season with a heavy scoreline that will draw significant attention. The match featured four 30-minute periods to allow full squad rotation. After the first hour, a semi-starting Genoa trailed 4-1, with Ellertsson scoring. In the second hour, a team largely composed of youth players was overwhelmed by the Premier League side. Genoa coach De Rossi expects a better showing Saturday against Deportivo La Coruna in their season debut. The club is seeking a striker, defender, and midfielder, while technical director Lopez remains confident in the team's continued growth under De Rossi.
