Here is the list of suspensions by the Sporting Judge Gianpaolo Tosel assisted by Stefania Ginesio and the A.I.A Representative Eugenio Tenneriello on Tuesday 21 April after the Serie A Round 31 completed on Monday 20 April 2015.
Hello my friends. Here are the Serie A RESULTS for Week 31 on Saturday 18, Sunday 19, and Monday 20 April 2015.
It’s just almost an “Oscar night” for Juventus. Yep, the awaited match Juventus – Lazio ending in favor of Juventus with a 2-0 reaching now 73 points and almost ready to collect the Scudetto having a +15 lead.
AS Roma under pressure to recover the 2nd position failed. Roma – Atalanta ending with a 1-1 draw. Roma wasted a precious time to win the home game. Here is the situation, Lazio and Roma both having 58 points, but Lazio keep the 2nd position for having a better goal difference +28 while Roma +19.
The MILAN DERBY ending with a BIG FLOP for both teams. A goalless draw. There is only 1 point difference and both teams are battling not only to win the Milan Derby, but also to pursue their last minute sprint towards the Europa League next season. The draw not helping and the standing remaining the same Milan in the 9th position with 43 points and Inter in the 10th position with 42 points. I think Inter had more chances to win, but the fact remains that neither Inter nor Milan could open the score….
The Round 31 ended on Monday with a blow for Fioretina losing the home game at the Artemio Franchi Stadium. Hellas Verona defeating Fiorentina in the 90th minute . A historical victory for Verona who had not won at the France since October 21, 2001.
The top scorer up to Round 31: Juventus forward Carlos Tevez with 18 goals.

Good morning my friends. It’s just a beautiful Monday morning. Here are the front pages from Italy main Sports newspapers La Gazzetta dello Sport, Corriere dello Sport, and Tutto Sport from Monday 20 April 2015.
Sunday is over and now Monday starting… how are you? I am very happy not much for how the Milan Derby ended, but for main sports news in Italy! Yep, headlines giving deserved priority to the victory of Valentino Rossi winning the MotoGP in Argentina!!!!! Wohooooooo Congrats Valentino!!!!!!
Imagine how disappointing the Milan Derby was that not only La Gazzetta dello Sport just gave them a small headline, but also Corriere, and Tutto Sport!!!! It was just a disappointing goalless 0-0 draw and three goals ruled out. Surely, I agree that Inter played better than Milan, but bottom line is that I consider it a major FLOP. Simply put, chances for Inter and AC Milan to make it to the Europa League next season are disappearing. So the party switching to Valentino Rossi…
Now, here is a headline that I am just ready to share with joy… wow, Tutto Sport showing the big headline for Juventus party at the home of Torino… yeah, Torino vs Juventus playing next week on Sunday 26 April and by the way things are going, this might be and early Scudetto party for Juventus considering there are only 7 more games…. Juventus currently with 73 points and the second position Lazio with only 58 points…. Are we seeing a red carpet? The Toro will be eager to stop Juventus party, but will they?
Ok, guys, have a good day and dont’ forget we have Fiorentina vs Hellas Verona today at 20:45.
