Serie A Weekend Round-up: Giornata 28

By: Francesco | March 16th, 2009

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 strikers of the modern era. You don’t score 300 goals without knowing how to play the game. The man, if healthy, will score goals until he’s 50. He has an innate sense of positioning where he always knows where to be to stick the ball into the back of the net. He’s scored goals everywhere he’s been, and even on the national team, when he was pushed aside by players like Vieri, Totti, Del Piero, Toni, and Gilardino, he managed to scored 25 goals (imagine if he had started more!). Inzaghi has always been one of the my favorite players. He never complains about playing time, he’s always waiting in the wings for his opportunity and when he comes on the pitch he gives 110%. Congrats SuperPippo, and here’s to hoping you score many more goals. Results after the jump.

FRANCESCO’S SERIE A GOALS OF THE WEEK

Giuseppe Mascara vs. Udinese – He did it again. “Mascarinho”, after scoring a goal from midfield 2 weeks ago, scores another stunning volley from 40 yards out that sails into the net.

Alexandre Pato vs. Siena – Pato scores his first goal of the match with a perfect strike from 25 yards out.

Zlatan Ibrahimovic vs. Fiorentina – Simply stunning free-kick from Zlatan that seals the match for Inter. Frey couldn’t do anything.

Sergio Pellissier vs. Lazio – The Chievo striker does his best Maradona impression as he beats the Lazio defense on his own and chips past Muslera.

Simon Kjaer vs. Lecce – OK, so even Kjaer admitted himself after the game that he was trying to cross it, but it still doesn’t make this chip any less nice to look at.
