Juve Stabia, or the Vespe (bees) as they are nicknamed, have always been a club that bounced around the lower divisions, never reaching the paradises of Serie B and Serie A. This season the club [...]

In honor of the national team break, I thought the video of the week should be national team-themed. Here’s a great little video I found on youtube, which goes through the history of the national team in 3 minutes and shows us that we too are part of the national team (L’Italia siamo noi=We are [...]
Where’s Cassano? Lippi still won’t answer…
By: Francesco | 29 Comments
After seeing Marcello Lippi’s latest national team call-ups this Sunday, the big question all over Italy has been “Where’s Cassano?”. The media has written articles on it and are severely questioning Lippi’s decision to leave out El Pibe di Bari yet again. It really is mind-boggling how Lippi can leave Italy’s most talented player at [...]

Yet another refereeing error. Napoli should’ve went up 1-0 with this play. At least it would’ve made yesterday’s game more interesting. Full results after the jump.

After this summer’s UEFA U-21 Championship, the current cycle will end and a new cycle (2009-2011) will start, which will result in a new Azzurrini team being put together because the current players will be too old to be eligible. Therefore in preparation for the qualifiers in September, Casiraghi is using next week’s friendly vs. [...]

There have been many players in Italy who are hyped by the media and pundits and in the end they never really amount to nothing in their careers, or just have average careers when they were expected to become superstars. You can look back over the past 10 years and see how many players have [...]

Remember the whole fiasco a couple of months back when Brescia striker Davide Possanzini and Napoli winger Daniele Mannini were suspended for a year for showing up 15 minutes late to post-match drug testing? Well, they both can breathe huge sighs of relief as today TAS suspended the decision, allowing Mannini and Possanzini to get [...]

Filippo “SuperPippo” Inzaghi scored his 300th career goal this weekend. Many people don’t appreciate Inzaghi. They say he has no technique. They say he really doesn’t know how to play football. They say he always dives. They say he always complains. But what they don’t realize is that Filippo Inzaghi is one of the greatest [...]

By: Francesco | 17 Comments
So yesterday I was browsing around Italian Goal.com (the only version of goal.com worth reading since they just post articles from other sources instead of making stuff up like the english version), and I came across this article.
