Good morning my friends.  Here are the front pages from Italy main Sports newspapers La Gazzetta dello Sport, Corriere dello Sport, and Tutto Sport from Tuesday 21 April 2015.

And we are still talking about the Milan Derby flop!   Headlines stating the face to face between Inter Coach Roberto Mancini and Referee Luca Banti… for Mancini there was a penalty.. but nevertheless the Derby ended with a 0-0.

Things are not working out for AS Roma and headlines showing President Pallotta having everybody under test!  Come on, guys, I would agree with Pallotta too!  It is just U N T H I N K A B L E  to see how Roma have been losing points after points now to the point of risking to lose even the third position!  OUCH….. oh welll…  the happiest ones are Lazio fans because they took away from Roma the second position…

I love Carlo Ancelotti, beloved Ancelotti, encouraging Juventus to move forward in Champions League.  I agree that it will be good for Italian football to see Juventus passing to the next round.  However, what really caught my attention from this headline is the possibility of Ancelotti to return to coach either Roma or AC Milan! UEPPAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA and if you ask me, I will say, AC MILAN.

Awesome to see Juventus forward Alvaro Morata encouraging the team to make it all the way to the CHAMPIONS LEAGUE FINAL… and hello, I am set for that!

Ouch! Not good news for Juventus fans regarding transfer market… headline from La Gazzetta indicating that actually it is forward Carlos Tevez to be the decisive factor in Champions League and his future.  Tevez between Monaco and Boca Juniors!!!  Surely, Tevez is the key player to win against Monaco.

Perfect headline for the game Fiorentina vs Hellas Verona.  I agree that it was a slap to Fiorentina by Verona claiming the victory at the Artemio Franchi Stadium.

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.

Hello, hello, hello, hello my friends!   Wow, what a day, an intense Sunday.  How are you?  Here are the front pages from Italy main Sports newspapers La Gazzetta dello Sport, Corriere dello Sport, and Tutto Sport from Sunday 19 April 2015.   I will need a big cup of Coffee to be alert!!

I am just so excited to watch the Milan Derby.   I agree with the headlines of Tutto Sport saying that it is an Anti Crisis derby for Thohir and Silvio… Surely,   It’s time for this derby where the battle is not much for the Scudetto as that is just an impossible mission considering the big gap with Juventus  with 73 points and only 7 more games… Milan 42 points and Inter 41 points.

As the headline of Corriere dello Sport says, it is just a small derby.,  As I was saying, this derby is not for the Scudetto because both failed this season.  Now, the battle is to grab a spot for the Europa League next season, so Inter and Milan will look to win this game.

Headlines for Juventus  are just an added boost towards the Scudetto.   Juventus defeating Lazio with a 2-0.     What else can we say about Juve, come on, guys, it is almost impossible, unthinkable to think Juventus will lose this Scudetto… The gap is +15 with Lazio in the second position and we have only 7 more games….. so far, Juventus have been consistent all season losing only 2 games…..  surely, miracles exist…..

Headline for Sampdoria – Cesena, it’s more like a headache for Sampdoria stopped by struggling Cesena with a 0-0 draw at the Ferraris Stadium.

Headlines for Sassuolo – Toro putting the pressure on forward Maxi Lopez to deliver a victory.

Hello my friends. Here is the Serie A PREVIEW for Week 31 on Saturday 18, Sunday 19, and Monday 20 April 2015.   We have an interesting round not for the 1st position because that seems a spot for Juventus with 70 points having a +12 points ahead of Lazio with 58 points.

What we will be following closely is the race towards the 2nd and 3rd position.   It’s a big challenge for Lazio to go to the Juventus Stadium to defeat Juventus.  Lazio can keep the 2nd position only if they defeat Juventus.  Now, here is the other situation.  AS Roma with 57 points can take back the 2nd position if Juventus defeat Lazio and Roma defeat Atalanta.

The super match to follow is the MILAN DERBY!   Yep, my friends.  Inter vs AC Milan. 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.  Milan in the 9th position with 42 points and Inter in the 10th position with 41 points.  Are you kidding me!  Hello… it will be a super duel between Inter forward Mauro Icardi and A CMilan forward Jeremy Menez both top scorer for their respective teams with 16 goals each.   Wondering who will score the winner goal… oh my gosh….

Agonizing battle for the last 3 teams in the relegation zone whether they will survive or just accept their reality to go to Serie B….. OUCH.

 

The top scorer up to Round 30: Juventus forward Carlos Tevez with 17 goals.
