Hello my friends. Here are the Serie A RESULTS for Week 27 on Saturday 14, Sunday 15, and Monday 16 March 2015. How are you? You bet Juventus fans must be already envisioning the Scudetto. Yep. Juventus consolidating their leadership after defeating Palermo at the Renzo Barbera Stadium reaching now 64 points!!! Juventus with a +14 points advantage ahead of Roma having 50 points. There are only 11 more games.. Roma falling at the Olimpico Stadium defeated by Sampdoria. It’s just a sentence written on the wall for Roma “Good bye hope for the Scudetto.”
Cagliari coach Zdenek Zeman making is re-debut with a draw against Empoli. A crazy match because Cagliari had the victory, but as the saying goes, the game is not over until the referee whistles the end of the match. Yep, Empoli equalized in the 93rd minute with the goal by Matias Vecino crushing Zeman’s hope to grab the victory.
Sassuolo coach Eusebio Di Francesco celebrating his 100th game with Sassuolo with a victory. Sassuolo defeating Parma with a mega poker 4-1! Total crisis for Parma and their dream to remain in Serie A next season vanishing.
The top scorer up to Round 25: Juventus forward Carlos Tevez and Inter forward Mauro Icardi with 15 goals each.

Hello my friends. It’s Monday morning. Here are the front pages from Italy main Sports newspapers La Gazzetta dello Sport, Corriere dello Sport, and Tutto Sport from Monday 16 March 2015. How are you?
Main headline today is about Hellas Verona defeating Napoli. Well, actually Verona forward Luca Toni crushing Napoli . The other main headline is about Inter not knowing how to win anymore. Inter ended up with a 1- 1 draw against Cesena at the Giuseppe Meazza Stadium. Questions arising now as to whether Inter will be ready to face Wolfsburg in Europa League at the Meazza….
Headline for AC Mian is about the pressure for Coach Filippo Inzaghi to win the match against Fiorentina. Rumors going around that coach Maurizio Sarri might replace him….. but is Sarri a top coach for this dying Milan?

Hello my friends. It’s Saturday morning. Here are the front pages from Italy main Sports newspapers La Gazzetta dello Sport, Corriere dello Sport, and Tutto Sport from Saturday 14 March 2015. How are you? Are you ready for the 2 Serie A games today Palermo vs Juventus and Cagliari vs Empoli?
I am very happy to see the headline on midfielder Marco Verratti considered now as the strongest Italian player. Verratti, certainly, making a difference with his current tea Paris Saint Germain. It’s good news for Italy Head Coach Antonio Conte to see Verratti at his best and ready for the EURO 2016 qualification.
Oh my gosh… Are you kidding me? There is a small headline grabbing my attention which is terrorizing me! No way, it says that the idea of Roma midfielder Daniele De Rossi adventure in America might be a temptation.. no! I cannot see De Rossi leaving Roma as he has been prepared to be next Captain after Francesco Totti …. We already lost forward Sebastian Giovinco who transferred from Juventus to the MLS…..
