    The Best of Saturday – March 24, 2012

  • 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.

  • 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)

    Juventus put their two consecutive 0-0 draws behind them, coming back from an early 1-0 deficit against Catania to reclaim the Serie A number 1 spot with a 3-1 win after goals from Andrea Pirlo, Giorgio Chiellini and Fabio Quagliarella.

  • AC Milan vs Inter – Diego Milito and Super Defense

    Diego Milito finally woke up this season after a terrible 2010-2011, struggling with injuries and the Post-Mourinho syndrome. He scored his 7th goals of the season in the Milan Derby, giving Inter a 1-0 win over AC Milan, putting the nerazzurri back in contention for the Serie A title.

  • Mid Season Top Scorers in Europe’s Top Leagues

    From Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi in the La Liga, with Van Persie and Mario Gomez in England and Germany, through German Denis and Olivier Giroud in Italy and France, here are the leading scorers in the top European leagues so far in the 2011-2012 season.

  • Best Match of the Season (Napoli vs Juventus)

    Juventus and Napoli delivering a fantastic 3-3 draw, as Juve remain undefeated in the Serie A was probably the best match we’ve seen this season, while Liverpool keep beating Chelsea, Aguero nabbed one for City against Arsenal and Barcelona easily thrashed Rayo Vallecano.

  • Pepe, Matri and Marchisio Score as Juventus Beats Palermo

    Juventus are back on top of the Serie A after a 3 week break, helping them arrive fresh to their home match against Palermo, beating a team they annualy struggle against with goal from Simone Pepe, Claudio Marchisio and Alessandro Matri.

  • Juventus and Predicting in the Serie A

    Back on top, but not impressing. Alessandro Matri is back, and scoring goals quite freely. Is he the best Italian striker out there? Better than Giueseppe Rossi, out there at struggling Villareal? Is he the man to lead Juventus into a new age of glory and prosperity, with Antonio Conte to guide him and the hungry for success club?

  • No Respect for Alessandro Del Piero

    At 36, Alessandro Del Piero, Juventus’ all time leading goal scorer and most capped player, who has been with this club since 1993, who has won five (or seven) Serie A titles with the club, one Champions League title, and probably more importantly, went down to Serie B with the club in 2006-2007, needs to be shown the way out by club president.
