Mancio decided to eschew tactical concerns during Saturday’s game in favor of making shadow puppets and/or scary faces.
I’m busy packing for an early flight, so here’s your one sentence wrap up for each Serie A weekend game. (The team blogs are more than adequate for the good stuff.)

Before we get into the WOTW, I’d like to present to you all the best rack I found in searching for this week’s special lady. Ladies & gentlemen, Mr. Jack Nicholson.
I was quite surprised Martha didn’t happen introduce everyone to Ms. Federica Ridolfi, the girlfriend of Giuliano Giannichedda, some dude who now only occasionally plays [...]

Instead of a Milan biased recap of the Spain-Azzurri game I thought I would call on the help of my Italy Offside Amici to all give a little recap of the friendly. Check out our thoughts.

A loss is never a good thing, and I am not the type of guy to [...]

Came upon this video today of a youngster scoring his first ever Serie A goal in his second game way back in 1999, slicing and dicing two pretty decent defenders in Laurent Blanc and Christian Panucci.
Sometimes you get the feeling that a kid is going to be good. Other times it just slaps you [...]

Well well well, what a difference a month can make. At the end of February, the Sardinians had already put a deposit down on their one year lease (with an option for longer) in Serie B, and had the FIGC rub a mixture of salt, alcohol and thumbtacks into their open wounds with a three [...]

Spain 1 – Azzurri 0
It wasn’t a good game, it wasn’t a bad game. It was just sort of….eh. A performance befitting a meaningless game. No great revelations either, except that maybe kinda sorta perhaps Marco Materazzi isn’t starting material anymore (he was thisclose to a red in fricken friendly for throwing his hand at [...]

Basically, nothing is going to be decided today (or tomorrow, depending on where you are). Fringe guys could up their probability of being selected again the next time around, or vice-versa, but there’s still too much time between now and April 7th for any definitive decisions to be made. It’s just a friendly and there [...]

Reggina Calcio needs better goal celebrations.
As you can see to the left.
Franco Brienza could be the surprise recall of the Euros.
The little man did pretty alright playing with Luca Toni on the island a few years back, and he’s looking like a man possessed for Reggina these days. Maybe The Don would like to rekindle [...]
Goals of the Week

Fabio Quagliarella makes his first appearance, making all right within the universe again. A relatively thin weekend – or there were too many good goals indiscernible from each other, can’t decide which – so it stretched back to the mid-week games as well.
The Fab Quags
Welcome back.

Inter v Juventus: Bigger match review here.
Roma 2 – Empoli 1: On a day when the real Alessandro del Piero looked like magic but couldn’t finish, Sebastian Giovinco did the same, though he managed to slot home a gimme on a wide open counter. Christian Panucci scored another header on a free kick taken from [...]
