👉Bosnia Triumphs on Penalties: Italy Knocked Out of World Cup for Third Consecutive Time
Everyone Out!
Kean offers a glimmer of hope, but Bastoni’s sending-off in the 42nd minute leaves the *Azzurri* with ten men; yet, in the second half, they squander three glaring goal-scoring opportunities. Then comes the cruel twist of fate, Tabakovic’s (dubious) 1–1 equalizer, followed by sheer agony right through to the end of extra time. In the penalty shootout, errors by Esposito and Cristante seal our fate. The debacle in Zenica is a stark reflection of our football system in shambles: it must be completely rebuilt, starting from the very top of the federation. Not even the referees respect us anymore: Turpin let Muharemovic off the hook (it should have been a red card), only for the same player to later block a shot by Pio with his arm. Gattuso in tears: “I apologize to Italy; I wasn’t able to pull it off.”

👉 Summary: As of Round 28, the Scudetto went from a ONE WAY to a TWO WAY race. AC Milan won the Milan Derby defeating Inter . The gap is now of only 7 points.

In the fourth and fifth positions, we have Como and Roma, both with 51 points. Juventus is in 6th place with 50 points.
Napoli celebrated a win against Torino at the Diego Armando Maradona Stadium. It was undoubtedly a night filled with joy for Napoli supporters. This victory brought Napoli to 56 points, maintaining their 3rd place standing. Meanwhile, Torino stayed at 30 points, positioned 14th. Napoli triumphed with a score of 2-1, thanks to goals from Alisson Santos and Eljif Elmas. This marked Napoli’s second consecutive victory, earning them three vital points in their Champions League pursuit. Most importantly, Kevin De Bruyne and Frank Anguissa made their return to the field after recovering from injuries, receiving a warm welcome from the fans. Torino’s Cesare Casadei did score, which caused a bit of concern for Napoli towards the end.
🔴🔵 Cagliari 1 – 2 Como ⚪️🔵
Como at the Unipol Domus. This marks Como’s third consecutive win and has now matched Roma with 51 points, awaiting the outcomes of today’s other games. Cagliari’s winless run continues. They faced a home defeat, leaving them with just 30 points and in 13th place in the league standings. In simple terms, Como has taken control of Unipol Domus, securing three vital points for the Champions League. Martin Baturina opened the scoring in the first half at the 14-minute mark. In the second half, Cagliari leveled the score with a header from Sebastiano Esposito in the 56th minute, and the match remained evenly poised until the 76th minute, when Como’s captain, Lucas Da Cunha, fired a stunning shot into the top corner.
⚫️🔵 Atalanta 2 – 2 Udinese ⚪️⚫️
Atalanta and Udinese concluded with a draw at the New Balance Arena. With this draw, Atalanta now has 46 points, just one point shy of Juventus and five points behind fourth-place Como, ahead of tomorrow’s match with Roma, which could push Atalanta eight points behind. Udinese, on the other hand, has moved to 36 points, two points behind Sassuolo and two points ahead of Lazio, both of whom have a game in hand. Udinese took the lead in the first half thanks to a goal from Kristensen, assisted by Zaniolo. They then appeared to secure the win with Davis’s goal making it 2-0, right after Scamacca’s shot hit the post. Palladino decided to take a risk with his team and was rewarded for it. The remarkable outcome can be attributed to Gianluca Scamacca, who scored two headers within just four minutes.
⚪️⚫️ Juventus 4 – 0 Pisa ⚫️🔵
A fantastic win for Juventus as they triumphed against Pisa at the Allianz Stadium with a 4-0 victory. This win significantly boosts their morale as they keep up with Napoli and Como, responding to the successes of their closest competitors. Additionally, they now hold a two-point advantage over Raffaele Palladino’s Atalanta, who were held to a draw by Udinese. Goals in the second half from Andrea Cambiaso, Khéphren Thuram, Kenan Yildiz, and Jérémie Boga were crucial, effectively dismantling the defensive barrier set up by Pisa.
🟡🔴 Lecce 2 – 1 Cremonese 🩶❤️
Lecce triumphed in the Serie A Week 28 match on Sunday, March 8, 2026, held at the Via Del Mare Stadium. This victory brings Lecce’s total to 27 points, widening their gap to three points above the third-to-last position. Lecce has moved up from 18th to 17th place. These three vital points are essential for Lecce as they strive to avoid relegation, having won this direct encounter. Meanwhile, Cremonese has fallen into the relegation zone, now sitting in 18th place with 24 points.
🔴🔵 Bologna 1 – 2 Hellas Verona 🟡🔵
A significant setback for Bologna losing at their home ground, “Renato Dall’Ara”. This defeat halts Bologna’s impressive run of five straight victories across all competitions. In contrast, Hellas Verona celebrates a return to form after a two-month winless streak, with their last victory dating back to early December against Fiorentina. Currently, Verona with 27 points in the 19th position, sits three points above the last place team and six points behind Cremonese. To add to the drama at the Dall’Ara, Verona staged a comeback to secure the win.
💜⚜️ Fiorentina 0 – 0 Parma 🟡🔵
A glimmer of hope for Fiorentina and Parma as they finish with a draw at the Artemio Franchi Stadium. This outcome allows Fiorentina to climb to 25 points, just one point ahead of Cremonese, who have 24 points. The match ended in a 0-0 draw with minimal excitement, as Parma maintained their typical defensive strategy. On a brighter note, Fiorentina has finally escaped the relegation zone for the first time. Meanwhile, Parma now sits at 34 points, ten points clear of the third-to-last position.
🔴🔵 Genoa 2 – 1 AS Roma 🟡🔴
A complete disaster for Roma while Genoa celebrates. Roma suffered a defeat at the Luigi Ferraris Marassi, losing 2-1. This loss marks a setback for Roma, who had been unbeaten for over a month. The Giallorossi now find themselves with 51 points, tied with Como in fourth place, while Juve trails with 50 points, just one point behind.
AC Milan 1 – 0 Inter ⚫️🔵
AC Milan wins the derby at San Siro and closes the gap on the league leaders to seven points with ten games remaining in the league. This ends Inter’s long positive streak, which falls after eight wins and fifteen consecutive unbeaten results in Serie A. Mission accomplished for Milan following a 1-0 victory in the first leg of the derby on November 23rd, AC Milan now win both of their Serie A matches against Inter this season for the first time since the 2010/11 season under Massimiliano Allegri. Milan scored the winning goal through Estupinan, making it 1-0.
