The  ex-AC Milan player Gennaro Gattuso being now  Napoli coach suffered a slap defeated by the Rossoneri.  AC Milan needed to win, and they did, the Serie A Week 8 keeping the first position on Sunday 22 November 2020 at the San Paolo Stadium in Napoli.   AC Milan reaching 20 points is +2 points above Sassuolo in the second position with 18 points.  Napoli went down from the 3rd to the 6th position.  This is a historical victory for AC Milan because the last time they won a Serie A game at the San Paolo was in October 2010, ten years ago!!!! Imagine back then, the victory was thanks to the goals from Robinho and Ibrahimović. The hero again -ten years later – is Mr. Ibrahimović.

Lazio causing an upset winning the Serie A Week 8 game defeating Crotone on Saturday 21 November 2020 at the Ezio Scida Stadium in Crotone, Italy. It is chaos for Crotone not finding their way out after being promoted from Serie B remaining in the last position.   The smile is for Lazio with seven unbeaten games.  The victory is meaningful seeing the return of Lazio forward Ciro Immobile after recovering from Covid-19. Immobile becoming Lazio’s second top goalscorer in Serie A reaching 107 goals alongside Giuseppe “Beppe” Signori.

Juventus with a sprint race to defend their Title climbing the Serie A reaching 16 points after defeating Cagliari.  The hero for Juventus is Portuguese forward Cristiano Ronaldo with a brace to boost the morale of the team.

Spezia failing to win the home game.  Spezia and Atalanta ending with a goalless draw the Serie A Week 8 game on Saturday 21 November 2020 at the Orogel Stadium in Cesena.  We might argue that  this draw is more like a victory for Spezia and a failure for Atalanta on their quest to climb to the top 3 positions.

Inter making a great comeback after being down at the Meazza with a 0-2 in favor of Torino.  Inter revived and ended winning the match with a 4-2 killing the Bull!
