Hello my friends. It’s a beautiful Sunday morning and I wish you a Happy Easter.  Jesus is risen, Hallelujah!   Here are the front pages from Italy main Sports newspapers La Gazzetta dello Sport, Corriere dello Sport, and Tutto Sport from Sunday 5  April 2015.

I am so happy and prepared by big cup of Cappuccino.    How are you?  Tutto Sport giving the main headline and well deserved to Juventus forward Carlos Tevez… oh yeahhhh.. Tevez the running motor defeating Empoli with a 2-0.   Juventus reaching now 70 points having a clear +14 points ahead of Roma.  Like it or not… the  Scudetto will be for Juventus…

It must be a sunny day in Rome!  Yep.  Headlines on AS Roma winning the super match at the Olimpico defeating Napoli thanks to the goal by midfielder Miralem Pjanic.

Headlines for Lazio are also a motive to celebrate in Rome.  Lazio defeated Cagliari and this is the 7th consecutive victory.   Lazio are just 1 point behind Roma. Simply put, my friends.  It is now an Extra Derby because Roma are in the 2nd position with 56 points while Lazio in the 3rd position with 55 points.

Just loving the main headline of La Gazzetta dello Sport..  I agree, it’s one city Milan and the two teams Inter and AC Milan having different results while pursuing their race for a spot in Europa….   Milan defeated Palermo with a 1-2 at the Barbera Stadium while Inter got only a 1-1draw against Parma at the Giuseppe Meazza Stadium.  Milan growing while Inter are now “punished”

I agree with the headline that it’s just clamorous because Inter were favorites to win at the Giuseppe Meazza Stadium.  You bet Inter coach Roberto Mancini is just furious with the result…

It’s a much needed victory for AC Milan on their quest to arrive towards the top 5 position.   Milan defeating Palermo at the Renzo Barbera Stadium.  It’s a double joy for the Rossoneri because forward Alessio Cerci scored his first goal as a Milan player after his transfer from Atletico Madrid.     Hero of the match is the most valuable player this season for Milan:  Forward Jeremy Menez scoring the winner goal in the 83rd minute.  Another highlight is defender Philippe Mexes playing his 100th game with AC Milan.

Milan winning their 3rd away game encouraging the team and fans.   For Palermo, the goal is by forward Paulo Dybala converting a penalty.

It is AC Milan to open the score in the 37th minute silencing the Barbera Stadium!   Forward Alessio Cerci defeating Palermo goalkeeper Stefano Sorrentino  with a left footed shot in the bottom right corner.  Special joy for Cerci because he scored not only the opening goal, but also his first goal for Milan.  Party time among rossoneri players.

Things complicated for Milan in the 71st minute.  Referee Doveri giving a penalty to Palermo conceded by defender Gabriel Paletta after a foul on forward Andrea Belotti.   It is forward Paulo Dybala to take the penalty spot.. and there you go…. Dybala converting the penalty with a left footed shot in the bottom right corner.   This is the 13th goal by Dybala this season.  Way to go..  Palermo equalizing.

A blow for Palermo!  In the 83rd minute  AC Milan forward Jeremy Menez crushing Palermo delivering the winner goal with a right footed shot in the top left corner.  And now my friends, it seems coach Filippo Inzaghi can breathe and should be thanking Menez for this important victory.    Menez scoring his 16th goal this season.

Total joy for AC Milan coach Filippo Inzaghi congratulating Jeremy Menez for the winner goal.  Surely, Menez is proving to be the true motor and hope for the Rossoneri.

Hello my friends. Here are  the Serie A RESULTS for Week 29 on Saturday 4 April 2015.  The awaited big match AS Roma – Napoli ended with a victory for the Roman gladiators defeating Napoli with the goal by midfielder Miralem Pjanic.  Roma keeping the 2nd position with 56 points while Napoli went down to the 6th position with 47 points.  Here is the situation, Napoli for the moment are out of  Europa League for next season.  Pressure for Napoli will be to win he next games and hope for Fiorentina (4) and Sampdoria (5) to lose points.

Juventus always closer to claim the Scudetto after defeating Empoli with a 2-0 thanks to the goals by Carlos Tevez and Robero Pereyra.  Juventus reaching 70 points and keeping a clear advantage of +14 points ahead of Roma.

Another great victory is for Lazio defeating Cagliari at the Sant’Elia Stadium with a 1-3.   Lazio keeping up the race for the second position having now 55 points just 1 point below AS Roma.

AC Milan coach Filippo Inzaghi  with “Mission Accomplished” winning at the Renzo Barbera Stadium.  It is a battle ending with a 1-2.  This victory is a boost to the morale of the Rossoneri who are still battling to make it to the Europa zone.  Milan in the 8th position  with 41 points are -7 points below of Sampdoria holding the 5th position with 48 points.  Highlight of the game is AC Milan forward Alessio Cerci scoring his first goal as a Milan player and defender Philippe Mexes playing his 100th game with Milan.

A disappointing result is the draw at the Giuseppe Meazza Stadium with Inter 1 – 1 Parma.  Surely, Inter fans upset seeing their team unable to defeat Parma who are in the last position of the table.   Pressure continuing for coach Roberto Mancini to see a consistent winning path.

The top scorer up to Round 29: Juventus forward Carlos Tevez with 17 goals.

Here are the declarations of AC MILAN defender Luca Antonelli after the Serie A Week 29 match Palermo 1 – 2 AC Milan on Saturday 4 April 2015 at the Renzo Barbera Stadium in Palermo, Italy.

 

LUCA ANTONELLI
“It’s three fundamental points, we needed them, especially as we hadn’t won away from home in a long time. It’s a victory that is worth double because very few sides have won here at Palermo. We’re very happy for the team as we all work hard every day and for the coach who gives his all and for the club that is always close to us. We came here and played our game and took three vital points to continue our dream. We all did well, it was hard to react after they equalised, but we did it. There are 9 finals to go, but let’s enjoy our Easter and from Tuesday we will start to think about the Sampdoria match. Happy Easter to everyone.”

POST-MATCH REACTION

 

All the interviews following Milan’s 2-1 victory away to Palermo.

(IN THE PHOTO: coach Inzaghi hands out instructions at the Barbera) 

MILAN- This is what was said by the coaching staff and the players following Milan’s 2-1 victory away to Palermo on Saturday afternoon:

FILIPPO INZAGHI (press conference)
“We can always do better. But, from the Fiorentina match we’ve been playing how we know how. Very few sides have won at Palermo. We played very well, and with a valid second goal ruled out. We conceded a goal, but we reacted right away. We were a team and this is the main thing, continuing to create good goal scoring chances. I am very happy. There’s a long way to go, but the desire and the spirit of these players is remarkable. Victories give you confidence and awareness in your means. We dominated in the second half and we didn’t suffer that much. When the match was coming to an end they scored a penalty. The reaction was good and we showed that we are a proper and united group. We had some important players available on the bench and that helped us and we have been missing this in the previous rounds. I am focused on the team and our day to day job. I am happy with these back to back wins and so is the President. We have to bring him some more joy and we have to do the same to the fans in this final part of the season.” 

LUCA ANTONELLI
“It’s three fundamental points, we needed them, especially as we hadn’t won away from home in a long time. It’s a victory that is worth double because very few sides have won here at Palermo. We’re very happy for the team as we all work hard every day and for the coach who gives his all and for the club that is always close to us. We came here and played our game and took three vital points to continue our dream. We all did well, it was hard to react after they equalised, but we did it. There are 9 finals to go, but let’s enjoy our Easter and from Tuesday we will start to think about the Sampdoria match. Happy Easter to everyone.” 

SUSO
“I am happy to have made my league debut and to have played, and I am happy for the team and for the three points. Let’s already start to think though about next week’s match. The players on the bench have to be ready. We came on in a difficult moment, but we made sure we were ready. The whole team did well. A win away from home is always important. We have to keep taking it one game at a time. This though can be the start. I’ve done well and I hope to maybe play even more next week.” 

MAURO TASSOTTI
“It was important to win again after the match with Cagliari. The first half was a balanced affair, we broke the deadlock, and I don’t know whether or not we deserved it in that moment. In the second half we came close to doubling our lead. We then conceded a penalty but we did well to score again through Menez. You make your own luck. We’ve had to make do without a lot of players for a long time, but now they are coming back and it gives us the chance to bring players off the bench that can change the match. Now it’s down to us to make sure we have them available until the end of the season. We now have 9 matches ahead of us, this result gives us confidence for the upcoming fixtures, even if we haven’t resolved everything. Menez is a player that lights up the game, he has extraordinary athletic abilities, he’s technically excellent. We have some faults but we definitely also have a lot of positives. Those that came off the bench did well, Pazzini came close to scoring, Suso was lively in between the lines. We’re also happy with them.”
