Hello my friends. Here are the Serie A RESULTS for Week 20 on Saturday 24, Sunday 25, and Monday 26 January, 2015. Juventus leading with 49 points followed closely by AS Roma in the second position with 42 points.  The gap now are  Juventus +7 points  ahead of Roma.

It’s a major blow for AC  Milan on their quest to reach the third position.  Milan defeated by Lazio at the Olimpico di Roma Stadium.  It’s a clear crisis for this Milan looking only as a shadow.  Chaos is also for Inter losing the home match at the Giuseppe Meazza Stadium defeated by Torino.  The City of Milan must be crying seeing both of their teams defeated and far from the top 3 positions.

A joy for Cagliari finally seeing the light at the end of the tunnel after defeating Sassuolo at the Sant’Elia Stadium.  Cagliari  battling for salvation and be away from the relegation zone.

As for relegation, a clear black crisis is for Parma losing again!   Parma have only 9 points.  It was the  game for salvation Parma – Cesena….. Now, Parma will have to make a decision on whether to keep coach Roberto Donadoni or change coach to remain in Serie A next year.

 

The top scorer up to Round 20: Juventus forward Carlos Tevez with 13 goals

It’s an emotional game for the ex AS Roma player Vincenzo Montella now coaching Fiorentina.  Great friendship gesture before the game seeing Roma Captain Francesco Totti walking towards Montella on the bench to greet his ex teammate.

Fiorentina opening the score in the 19th minute with forward Mario Gomez defeating AS Roma goalkeeper Morgan De Sanctis with a left footed shot in the bottom right corner.  The assist is by midfielder David Pizarro.  De Sanctis protests, but the goal is valid and celebration at the Artemio starting….

Things changing in the second half.  AS Roma returning to equalize the score in the 49th minute.  It is the ex Fiorentina forward Adem Ljajic to equalize with a right footed shot.  Ljajic not celebrating the goal as he mentioned before the game for respect to the team that brought him to play in Italy.   It’s the 7th goal this season for Ljajic

Montella: "Fair draw, we gave our all"

Fiorentina coach Vincenzo Montella spoke to Sky Sport Italia after his side’s 1-1 draw with Roma this evening:
Any regrets? “We gave our all against a top-quality side – a draw isn’t a bad result.”
Gomez? “He’s improving and can do even better for the team. He’s got the ability to do very well.”
Wasted chances? “I’m happy with the way the team played and the desire we showed.”
Second-half struggles? “Perhaps we were fatigued mentally – it’s tough to keep up that intensity for 90 minutes.”
Joaquin? “Joaquin had a great game and worked hard for the team. We need to keep our game short to be at our best.”
Is it better to have a goalscorer or a player who stretches the defence? “Well, the best thing would be to have both those qualities in one player. Luckily, we have many players who can play in several positions.” ]]>
