Hello my friends. Here are the Serie A RESULTS for Week 14 on Friday 5, Saturday 6, Sunday 7, and Monday 8 December 2014. A surprising outcome towards the Race for the Scudetto. Incredible so, AS Roma wasting a golden chance to shorten the distance with Juventus to a -1 point! Yep. Fiorentina stopped Juventus by ending with a 0-0 draw. As the saying goes…. never underestimate the underdogs… Sassuolo causing a big headache to Roma at the Olimpico di Roma Stadium by taking a 0-2 lead…. at the end Roma managed to draw the match to a 2-2. Bottom line, Juventus keep the leadership with 35 points and AS Roma following closely with 32 points… three points gap.
Another upset is Napoli losing the 3rd position after their 2-2 draw at the San Paolo Stadium with Empoli. Great result for Genoa defeating AC Milan with a 1-0 to grab the 3rd position!
Biggest disappointment Inter losing the home game at the Giuseppe Meazza Stadium defeated by Udinese with a 1-2. Inter still with defense problems. Hero of the match is Udinese forward Cyril Thereau scoring the winner goal following the error by Inter forward Rodrigo Palacio.
The top scorer up to Round 14: Juventus forward Carlos Tevez with 9 goals
