Milan-Inter: 2-1
In the match everyone was looking forward to, the Rossoneri won their first derby in 2 years after playing Inter off the pitch […]

Sorry guys for the late post, but my internet has been down all day (Stupid Time Warner Cable!). So here’s the weekend preview:
As you can see by the picture, the main event of Week 37 is the Derby della Madonnina between Milan and Inter. This derby has turned out to become one of the most […]

By: chris | Comments 4 Comments

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.)

Lazio 1 - Inter 1: Crespo got it […]

Ten Things We Learned From Serie A This Weekend

By: chris | Comments 3 Comments

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 […]

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 […]

UEFA Cup Spot(s)

Sampdoria 3 - Catania 1: If you missed the train/bus, and didn’t show up til the hour mark, you were totally cool, because the fireworks didn’t start until the 68th. Four goals in the final 22, and you don’t have to look at the scoreline to know who won - Catania was playing […]

Week 27: 71.1% There And Loving It

By: chris | Comments 16 Comments

Well, not so much if you’re Roberto Stellone. Move that ass, Moris. Figure it’s getting to about that point in the season…..
Top O’ The Table: Status quo. Three fairly comfortable 2-0 victories along with Francesco Totti and David Trezeguet goals and a controversial Inter (non)penalty. It’s like they set this thing on auto-pilot or something.
1. […]
