Hello my friends. Here are the Serie A REULTS for Week 13 on Saturday 29, Sunday 30, and Monday 1 December 2014. Highlight of this round is the miraculous victory of Juventus defeating Torino in the 93rd minute… just about 30 seconds before ending the game and guess who did the goal? Hello, who else….. the one and only midfielder Andrea Pirlo to claim the victory and bragging rights to rule the City of Turin. Juventus having now 34 points watching from above Roma with 31 points.
AS Roma vs Inter a crazy game with the Roman gladiators battling to keep up the race for the Scudetto with Juventus. Roma defeating Inter with a 4 – 2 poker!!! A blow out for Inter because they are getting far from the coveted 3rd position falling now down to the 11th position with only 17 points and a positive goal difference of +1
Sampdoria vs Napoli ending with a 1-1 draw. A draw giving the 1 point needed to Napoli to grab back the 3rd position.
Fiorentina with a prestigious away victory against Cagliari at the Sant’Elia Stadium with a 0-4!!!! It seems the magic of Cagliari coach Zdenek Zeman went on vacation in this game…..
Big trouble for Parma losing against Palermo and remaining in the 20th position. Palermo with the 2-1 went up to the 12th position with 17 points.
Here is an interesting detail. Serie A Top 4 scorers up to Round 13 include 3 Argentinians, 1 Italian, 1 Spanish, and 1 French:

Here is an interesting detail. If we were to look for promising Italian forwards for the National team, we are in deep trouble. Get this one, there is only 1 Italian player among the Serie A Top 6 scorers up to Round 13 and that is 37-years old Udinese forward Antonio Di Natale with 7 goals, we have 3 Argentinians: Tevez, Icardi, and Higuain. 1 from Spain: Jose Callejon, and 1 from France: Jeremy Menez
Is there a crisis among Italian forwards? Next higher Italian scorers in Serie A this season are Genoa forward Alessandro Matri with 6 goals, Parma forward Antonio Cassano with 5 goals. Juventus forward Pablo Osvaldo with 5 goals (born in Argentina, but getting his Italian citizenship through his great-grandfather).
Let’s see how the Italian forwards do in the next Serie A games and whether it is an alarm sign for Italy Head Coach Antonio Conte.
Note: Higuain still have to play on Monday 1 December and might increase his goals.
