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 19 May 2015. Grab your coffee or tea.. headlines today mostly about AC Milan and who will be the next coach.
Tension continuing for AC Milan. La Gazzetta dello Sport headlines showing the possible sacking of coach Filippo Inzaghi. Yep, my friends. It seems President Silvio Berlusconi finally realizing that his vision and Inzaghi’s vision were totally different and going in different direction. Here are the 3 candidates to replace Inzaghi according to La Gazzetta: Emery, Antonio Conte, and the ex Milan coach Carlo Ancelotti. Oh my gosh, if you ask me, I pick immediately Ancelotti because out of the 3 coaches none of them loves Milan more than Ancelotti. Plus, Ancelotti already proving he is a top shot and able to lead the players. More? Ancelotti won the Champions League too with Milan. Relations with his current club Real Madrid are not ideal, so, the idea of bringing back Ancelotti is not that crazy.
Another situation is reported by Corriere dello Sport. Headlines showing either Fiorentina coach Vincenzo Montella or Marcello Lippi replacing Inzaghi. Oh well…..
Headlines for Juventus and totally agree…. The Juventus under the 5 years of Agnelli are just wonderful. After calciopoli now jumping all the way to the Champions League Final. Financially, Juventus going from 154 to 320 millions…. No doubt Juventus are living a super moment winning already the 4th consecutive Scudetto and battling tomorrow for the Coppa Italia Final. Way to go for Agnelli! As for transfer market headlines, Juventus pursuing to sing Paris Saint Germain forward Edinson Cavani. Your take?
Headlines for Napoli bringing a smile for the fans. Napoli defeated Cesena with forward Manolo Gabbiadini and Dries Mertens goals to claim the victory. Napoli 3 – 2 Cesena,
Headlines for Fiorentina also adding smile for the fans. Fiorentina crushed Parma at the Artemio Franchi Stadium. Fiorentina 3 – 0 Parma,

=============== Italian Serie A Tickets for next 10 games
Hello my friends. Here are the Serie A RESULTS for Week 36 on Saturday 16, Sunday 17, and Monday 18 May 2015.
Juventus confirming their “superiority” this season. Not only Juventus already won the Scudetto, but also win the Derby d’Italia defeating Inter at the Giuseppe Meazza Stadium. Juventus using mostly players from the reserve and humiliate Inter. Coach Massimiliano Allegri decided to give resting time to goalkeeper Gianluigi Buffon, forward Carlos Tevez, midfielders Andrea Pirlo and Arturo Vidal.
Good news for Roma fans. AS Roma keeping the second position after defeating Udinese with a 2-1. The winner goal is by defender Vasileios Torosidis with the assist by Roma Captain and gladiator Francesco Totti.
A blow again for this agonizing AC Milan, once a glorious club, and now barely surviving. Sassuolo 3 – 2 AC Milan, it’s a blow for Milan who were looking for the victory and yet, Sassuolo delighting their fans by defeating the rossoneri. Milan ending with 9 players. As usual, controversies …. now the apparent ghost goal by Sassuolo forward Domenico Berardi. However, guys, come on, if a team cannot win with more than 1 goal and totally convincing, then, why protesting?
Good time for Palermo winning the away game at the Sant’Elia Stadium. Yep. Palermo defeating Cagliari with the goal by forward Franco Vázquez in the 9th minute ending Cagliai 0 – 1 Palermo.
Genoa crushing Atalanta at the Atleti Azzurri D’Italia Stadium with a 1 – 4!!!!! Total chaos for Atalanta while Genoa seeming having a ride at the park.
Sad news is for Cagliari who are now officially relegated to Serie B. Incredible so, Cagliari going down to the Serie B after 11 years. Making it more painful is that they lost precisely in front of their fans at the Sant’Elia Stadium defeated by Palermo with a 0-1. Surely, Cagliari players and fans wont’ forget the name of forward Franco Vazquez because his goal condemned them to Serie B.
The top scorer up to Round 35: Juventus forward Carlos Tevez with 20 goals

Fiorentina grabbing the 5th position maintaining the dream for a spot in the Europa League for next season. Parma already relegated to Serie B losing this away game.
It is Fiorentina forward Gonzalo Rodriguez to open the score defeating Parma goalkeeper Antonio Mirante with a headed shot in the bottom left corner.
Fiorentina increasing the score in the 30th minute with forward Alberto Gilardino following a corner conceded by goalkeeper Mirante. It is Matías Fernández to provide the assist to Gilardino defeating Mirate with a headed shot in the high center.
Second half not changing much. Parma unable to react and succumb at the Franchi. In the 56th minute Mohamed Salah defeating goalkeeper Mirante with a right footed shot in the bottom right corner. Total disaster for Parma. The assist is by Captain Manuel Pasqual.

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 Monday 18 May 2015. Coffee anyone?
What a day! It’s Monday and it must be a sunny day in Sassuolo. Headlines giving a deserved recognition to forward Domenico Berardi the anti-rossoneri scoring 3 goals against Milan. Protest going on as whether the first goal was a goal or not a goal…. but a “ghost goal.” Coach Filippo Inzaghi is furious with all the mistakes, but hello, hello, hello, bottom line is that they lost the game with errors or not. Simpy put, my friends, it’s a nightmare for AC Milan realizing now their chances to be in the Europa League next season is gone. FINITO, KAPUT, OVER, C’EST FINI… SE ACABO!
Headlines bringing a smile to Roma fans because they are back in the 2nd position after defeating Udinese with a 2-1.
As for Inter, headlines showing the meeting between coach Roberto Mancini and president Eric Thohir and the ok for Yaya Toure.
Transfer market going wild. Headlines for the possible departure of midfielder Arturo Vidal? Well, apparently the replacement could be Roma midfielder Radja Nainggolan…
Sad news for Cagliari. Headlines reminding them they are now mathematically relegated to Serie B after 11 years!!! Final sentence after losing the home game at the Sant’Elia Stadium defeated by Palermo with a 0-1 .. goal by Franco Vazquez.
Tonight we have 2 games to end the Serie A Week 36. Napoli vs Cesena and Fiorentina vs Parma.
Oops.. what?!!!! My goodness sake.. could not believe the big headline from Tutto Sport indicating UEFA President is upset with Juventus midfielder Paul Pogba!
Good news for Torino. A supre Maxi +Maksi. Torino defeating Chievo Verona with a 2-0, both goals by Maxi Lopez.
