Hello my friends. Here are the results for the Serie A Week 7 – Seventh Round on Saturday 3 and Sunday 4 October 2015.

The two-way race for the Scudetto between Fiorentina and Inter had  15 points before this round.    Inter failing to defeat Sampdoria at the Luigi Ferraris Stadium and ended up with a draw falling now alone in the 2nd position with 16 points.  Fiorentina living a great moment as they are defeating Atalanta at the Artemio Franchi Stadium reaching now 18 points and becoming sole leaders of the Serie A for the first time this season!  Fiorentina are now +2 points above Inter.

The highlight in this round is the famous Verona Derby.  However, far from being a memorable Derby, it ended with a draw.    A tough situation for Hellas Verona remaining in the 19th position with just 4 points!

The good news is for Carpi!   Yep!  Carpi with a historical victory after defeating Torino because it is the first victory in Serie A after being promoted from Serie B.  It’s just party time for Carpi because coach Giuseppe Sannino made his debut with Carpi with a victory!

Roma are crushing Palermo at the Renzo Barbera Stadium scoring already 3 goals in the first half.  The final result is Palermo 2 – 4 AS Roma.

A total flop for AC Milan falling in San Siro!   Napoli rocking and already scoring 3 goals while the somber face of coach Sinisa Mihajlovic says it all….. a flop.   Adding a knife to injury, the own goal by Milan defender Rodrigo Ely to make it,  AC Milan 0 – 4  Napoli

 

The top scorer up to Round 6: Sampdoria forward Citadin Eder with 6 goals.
