Sports Judge decisions of the Serie A TIM 8th round of return / Week 27
Hello my friends. Here are the resultsof the Serie A Week 27 – Twenty-seventh Round on Saturday 27, Sunday 28, and Monday 29 February 2016
The awaited duel for the Scudetto gaining momentum. Juventus passing the test while Napoli failing. Juventus defeated Inter with a 2-0 at the Juventus Stadium reaching now 61 points. Napoli failing to defeat Fiorentina at the Artemio Franchi Stadium ending the game with a 1-1 draw. Napoli remaining in the 2nd position with 58 points which means the gap now are -3 points below Juventus.
Problem now for Fiorentina seeing their ranking going down after the draw with Napoli. Fiorentina goes down to the 4th position with 53 points because AS Roma jumped from the 4th to the 3rd position after defeating Empoli with a 1-3 score. Roma and Napoli sharing 53 points, but Roma having a better goal difference +27 compared to Napoli +21. The race for the 3rd position is still open seeing main contenders not only Fiorentina and Napoli, but also Inter and AC Milan following closely with 48 and 47 points, respectively.
Crisis is for salvation. Hellas Verona losing against Udinese with a 2-0 and remaining in the last position. Hellas winning only 2 games this season, and most likely, it seems salvation is an impossible dream. However, nothing is granted yet. We have 11 more games and the three teams battling to remain in Serie A next season will have to really speed up their game to start winning: Frosinone, Carpi, and Hellas Verona.
The top scorer up to Round 27: Napoli forward Gonzalo Higuain with 25 goals
