Miroslav Klose Scores 5 Goals in 60 Minutes (Lazio vs Bologna)

Juventus FC – Streak Stops at 49

No longer undefeated, as Juventus encountered their first real stumbling block of the season in the Serie A, failing to capitalize on a fantastic start to the Derby d’Italia, as Inter showed that there’s an actual title race going, scoring three goals in the second half and proving that they are for real.

Juventus FC – Too Good for the Rest of the Serie A

It took only 19 minutes for Juventus to put away one of their alleged biggest rival to the title this season in Italy, eventually beating Roma 4-1 in another fantastic display at home, helping everyone (except a few folk at Napoli) reach the same conclusion – Juve are just too much for the Serie A this season.

Giuseppe Rossi – Leaving Villarreal for Serie A?

After pretty much every notable player left Villarreal as the yellow submarine sunk to the depths of the Segunda division in Spain, Giuseppe Rossi is the last man standing, although his goal is to be with a new team by the time he’s back on the pitch in early 2013, hopefully in the Italian Serie A.

Robinho and Milan Get Screwed Again By Lack of Goal Line Technology

Robinho surely scored, but from where the referee was located, it was hard to tell. AC Milan should have won against Catania, but the linesman couldn’t identify, or just didn’t have the guts to say anything, regarding the ball that crossed the line. The game went on, ended in a 1-1 draw with Catania, and the title race is wide open again thanks to another case of Milan being on the wrong end of football’s primitiveness. More →

Antonio Conte Remembering to Use Alessandro Del Piero Too Late

Was Antonio Conte happy, or was he thinking to himslef – why didn’t I use him earlier? It’s late March, with nine matches left in the Serie A title race, and Alessandro Del Piero just scored his first league goal this season. Kind of late for the greatest scorer in Juventus history, despite being 37. Maybe too late to catch up with AC Milan, four points ahead. More →

Probably a bit Too Late for Juventus to Start Scoring Now

Antonio Conte saw his team win their first match in a month, after four consecutive draws in the league and only three goals scored. Juventus lost their grip on the top spot in the Serie A and slowly slipped four points behind AC Milan, who have come together, with a refreshed Zlatan Ibrahimovic, just in time. The 5-0 away win over Fiorentina might be too late, despite the 10 matches still left to play. More →

Nocerino and Matri Split Serie A Match of the Season (AC Milan vs Juventus)

Antonio Nocerino scored off of Bonucci’s terrible mistake, while Muntari’s legal goal was seen by everyone but the officials. Alessandro Matri scored twice, but only one of them was counted, as AC Milan and Juventus ended their match of the seasons in a 1-1 draw, leaving Milan one point ahead of Juve but the Bianconeri with a game in hand.

Back on Track (Juventus vs Catania)
