Hello my friends. Here is the Serie A ROUNDUP for
the
Serie A Week 19, 2013 – 2014 Season on Saturday 11, Sunday 12 and Monday 13 January 2014, matchday 19.
Serie A Round 19 seeing a breaking record. Juventus achieving their 11th consecutive victory confirming their dominion. Juventus were down by a goal, then, awakening. Juventus crushing Cagliari with a poker! Four goals at the Sant’Elia Stadium by Fernando Llorente scoring 2 goals, Claudio Marchisio his first goal this season, and Stephan Lichtsteiner. Cagliari opened the score with forward Mauricio Pinilla. Simply put, guys, Juventus still absolute top leader with 52 points keeping the 8 points advantage over AS Roma who are in the second place with 44 points. Cagliari finishing the game with 10 players after Referee Guida gives a RED CARD to Pinilla in the 87th minute for protesting.
What a blow for Livorno! Parma crushing Livorno extending their agony in the relegation zone. Parma scoring 3 goals leaving no hope for Livorno. A great game for striker Amauri scoring 2 goals including converting the penalty.
Bologna coach Davide Ballardini debuts with a draw after replacing coach Stefano Pioli. We might say this is a positive start for Ballardini not conceding goals and at least claiming a 1 point. By the way, guys, Reja made his re-debut with Lazio last week with a victory. Lazio 1 – 0 Inter. Yet, Reja could not claim a victory this time.
Total party at the Olimpico di Roma Stadium. The Roman gladiators crushing Genoa with 4 goals! Great game by Francesco Totti and Alessandro Florenzi not only scoring goals, but also providing assists! A super goal by Florenzi in rovesciata!
A total rollercoaster… incredible Sassuolo forward Domenico Berardi scoring 4 goals against AC Milan! Yep, you are reading right, Berardi defeating goalkeeper Christian Abbiati 4 times!!!…. Also there is the debut of new AC Milan player Keisuke Honda. Berardi is the first player to score 4 goals against AC Milan this season. It’s a blow for Milan seeing their chances to qualify for the Champions League next year very difficult…. not even to the Europa League…. Sassuolo celebrating because this victory helped them leave the relegation zone and climbed to the 16th position… what a survival! The outcome of this defeat results in the sacking of coach Massimiliano Allegri on Monday 13 January.
Here is the situation. Juventus in the 1st position with 52 points and a positive goal difference of +34. AS Roma in the 2nd position with 44 points and a positive goal difference of +29. Napoli in the 3rd position with 42 points and a positive goal difference of +21.
