On Matchday 1, Lega Serie A and @ufficio_antidiscriminazioni stepped onto the field to fight all forms of racism and discrimination. #SerieATIM! 👊 ⛔ #KeepRacismOut

The first game of the 2020-2021 Season was Fiorentina vs Torino on Saturday 19 September at the Artemio Franchi Stadium.  The victory was for Fiorentina after the goal by defender Gaetano Castrovilli to become also the first to score in this season.    One goal was enough to grab the victory and claim all 3 points.  We must say that Torino put up a strong front with goalkeeper Salvatore Sirigu and this time Torino star forward Andrea Belotti could not score.   Fiorentina 1 -0 Torino.

The second game   ended with a goalless draw.  Hellas Verona were not favorites to win.  Yet, this draw is more a flop for AS Roma failing to score and not winning the away game under the new Friedkin Era.  Hellas Verona avoided the fall and grab 1 point at the Marc’Antonio Bentegodi Stadium.

Juventus, the reigning Italy’s Champions, making their 2020-2021 Season debut with a convincing victory.  Juventus win the Serie A Week 1 defeating Sampdoria with a 3-0 on Sunday 20 September 2020 at the Allianz Stadium in Turin.  The debut also for Dejan Kulusevski scoring a goal, then, Bonucci, and sealing the victory was Cristiano Ronaldo.

A mega start for Genoa with a poker at the Luigi Ferraris Stadium.  Genoa defeating newly promoted team Crotone with a 4-1.  Surely, this is not a good sign for Crotone who will have to archive this humiliation and win their next game to boost the morale of the team and fans.  The journey in Serie A for Crotone for the moment is uphill.

Napoli Coach Gennaro Gattuso must be delighted with his team winning the away game at the Ennio Tardini Stadium.  Napoli defeated Parma with a 2-0.  Good start for Napoli and the smile is set.  The highlight of the match is Captain Lorenzo Insigne playing his 350th game with Napoli and what a way to celebrate than by scoring a goal!!!!  Yep, Insigne sealed the victory scoring for the 2-0 in the 77th minute.

AC Milan starting the season with forward Zlatan Ibrahimović scoring 2 goals in the first game sending an optimistic message to the fans.  AC Milan giving a headache to Bologna unable to react.  The objective for AC Milan this season is to make it to the top 4 to qualify for the UEFA Champions League.   We see the debut of young Sandro Tonnali in the 77th minute replacing Franck Kessié.
