Good morning my friends! Here are the front pages from Italy main Sports newspapers La Gazzetta dello Sport, Corriere dello Sport, and Tutto Sport from Monday 1 June 2015. Serie A 2014 – 2015 Season is over and headlines today giving us the final verdict. Grab your cup of Coffee or tea, or even a snack and let’s share the latest news.
Love to see the headline from La Gazetta dello Sport indicating “the last verdicts of the league.” I totally agree that it was a Super Lazio at the San Paolo Stadium defeating Napoli with a final result 2-4. Lazio overtaking the 3rd position and qualifying for the Champions League Preliminary. Napoli went down from the 3rd to the 5th position and will play in Europa League. Incredible so, forward Gonzalo Higuain helped the team to make a come back from a 0-2 to a 2-2, but then, Higuain failing to convert a penalty!!!!! Oh well, guys, I know it’s painful, but the blame should not be given to Higuain, but the entire team, period. Your take?
One headline making me happy is about the duel to get the throne of the goal. Yep, we have 2 top scorers in the Serie A: Hellas Verona Luca Toni and Inter forward Mauro Icardi reaching also 22 goals each. Mamma mia, what a battle and both players can now celebrate.
Headline on the upcoming Champions League are just building up the enthusiasm. The BBC made in Italy against the Barcelona attack. The phenomenon of 120 goals.
Juve, a cage for Messi. Saturday is the greatest final. According to the Corriere dello Sport headline, coach Massimiliano Allegri has a plan to stop Leo Messi. Do you think Juventus can really stop Messi? I do.
Headlines for Torino just a party time. Torino scoring 5 goals against Cesena.
