Goals of the Week: Giornata 12
By: Francesco |Fairly good week for goals, as only one game finished 0-0 (Catania-Napoli, but ask Takayuki Morimoto about that). The top scorer table is still wide open, as Di Natale started strong but now has cooled off so he remains at 9, while Hamsik is second with 7 and that’s impressive for a midfielder. Pazzini and [...]
Serie A and B Weekend Round-up: Giornata 12
By: Francesco |Milan has really jumped up the table these past few weeks. After the horrible start where everyone condemned the Rossoneri to a season of misery, Leonardo’s squad has made a complete turnaround, finally playing well and becoming contenders once again. They now find themselves 5 points behind leaders Inter and only 2 behind Juventus and [...]
Great Serie A Games: Roma-Inter 1998/99
By: Francesco |Roma-Inter from May of 1999 is another highly entertaining game from one of the most entertaining Serie A seasons of all time. The 1998-99 season had 3 leaders of the table (for the first part of the season it was Fiorentina, who were winter champions but were then hurt by the injury of Batistuta, then [...]
Goals of the Week: Giornata 11
By: Francesco |A few nice goals this week, but nothing extraordinary. Giuseppe Mascara scored one of his trademark wonder-goals, and Marco Borriello got back on the scoresheet with 2 goals (the second a nice scissor kick) after almost a year. Diego Milito got back to his scoring ways as well after being absent through injury, and Mirko [...]
Serie A Weekend Round-up: Giornata 11
By: Francesco |Napoli won vs. Juventus in Torino for the first time since November 20, 1988, when Maradona’s Napoli won 5-3. Since then, there had been 11 wins and 5 ties, and Napoli hadn’t scored in Torino since March of 1998. This Napoli side has been rejuvenated under Walter Mazzarri, and they have shown they have a [...]
Fabrizio Miccoli: Giant Killer
By: Francesco |Fabrizio Miccoli has really become the undisputed leader of Palermo. The diminutive fantasista, or il Romario del Salento as he is so aptly nicknamed, has been putting in great performances this season and had a great year last season, and it looks like he has finally found a place to show all of his talent. [...]
The Biggest Serie A Flops of the Last 9 years
By: Francesco |Although we are only 10 games into the season, Klaas-Jan Huntelaar is starting to look more and more like a big flop. 15 million euro were spent on the Dutch striker, and even if he reaches 5 goals this season it would seem like a big achievement. Sure you can say that he needs time [...]
Goals of the Week: Giornata 9
By: Francesco |I didn’t put up a Weekend Round-up yesterday because I figured with the midweek round tomorrow, it would be pointless to update everything twice. So we’ll dive in straight to Goals of the Week. Not as great as last week, but still some good goals, especially Daniele Mannini’s one-time volley vs. Bologna. Goals after the [...]
Great Serie A Games: Roma-Juve 2003/2004
By: Francesco |The Great Serie A Game posts continue with Roma-Juve 2003/2004. The 2003/2004 season was an interesting one. Milan, fresh from a Champions League victory and with some new young Brazilian player named Kaka, were dominating Serie A. While Marcello Lippi’s Juve looked to be favorites to combat the Rossoneri to the Scudetto, it was not [...]
Goals of the Week: Giornata 8
By: Francesco |This is going to be a good goals of the week post. There are many nice goals, and in particular the goals from Stankovic and Dessena are awesome to watch. Goals after the jump.
