A sweet and sour morning….  Here are the front pages from Italy main Sports newspapers La Gazzetta dello Sport, Corriere dello Sport, and Tutto Sport from Friday 15 May 2015.   I better grab a strong cup of Coffee…. Have a good day…

I hope you are all doing great.  It’s not a good morning since we are waking up with the news that the 2 Serie A teams remaining in Europa League Napoli and Fiorentina were eliminated.

Headlines from La Gazzetta showing a disappointing Gonzalo Higuain after Dnipro defeat them in Ukraine.   It was the last chance for Napoli to make it the Europa League Final, but failed.  Game ended Dnipro 1 – 0 Napoli.

As the Corriere dello Sport states, it’s a sour Europa League.   Reportedly, Napoli coach Rafael Benitez closer to leave Napoli.  Fiorentina defeated and the Europa League final will be Dnipro vs Sevilla on 27 May.

Well, let me now revamp and gain energy.. Love to see the headline encouraging Juventus that they can defeat Barcelona in the Champions League Final!    The key is the midfield with the great architect Andrea Pirlo and Paul Pogba.

Just love the headline of Tutto Sport with the photo of the top 3 Barcelona players Luis Suarez, Neymar, and Lionel Messi.  The headline not afraid of the so-called phenomenon trio!

Transfer market headlines showing that Palermo forward Paulo Dybala saying “yes” to Juventus for 32 millions for 5 years!

Juventus not stopping and continue shopping around.   The next move is to press Paris Saint Germain  to get forward Edinson Cavani.  Juventus are just a top team with top players like Carlos Tevez, Alvaro Morata and Paul Pogba.

Oh my gosh!  Talking about tension.. it appears the Lega might change the date of the awaited Derby della Capitale Lazio vs Roma originally scheduled on 24 May.  Here is the situation.  The whole thing changed because Juventus qualified to the Champions League Final on Saturday 6 June.   The Coppa Italia was scheduled on June 7 and had to be anticipated on May 20.

Fiorentina falling at the Artemio Franchi Stadium and saying good bye to the Europa League.

 Stats:   Europa League Semifinal First Leg: Sevilla 3 – 0 Fiorentina.

 

Fiorentina needed a victory with more than 3 goals without conceding.  Yet, everything went wrong!   It is Sevilla to open the score in the 22nd minute with forward Carlos Bacca defeating Fiorentina goalkeeper Neto with a right footed shot in the top right corner from close range.  The assist is by midfielder  Éver Banega with a cross.  The aggregate now is 0 – 4.

Five minutes later, Fiorentina conceding another goal and my friends I am in total shock!!!!!    Fiorentina forgot they were supposed to play their best game today!   In the 27th minute, the goal by defender Daniel Carriço defeating goalkeeper Neto with a right footed shot in the bottom left corner.    The aggregate now is 0 – 5.

No way!   this is it.  It’s just a total chaos!   Incredible.  Referee Damir Skomina giving a penalty to Fiorentina in the 67th minute conceded by Sevilla midfielder Grzegorz Krychowiak after a foul on midfielder David Pizzaro.  Here is the U N B E L I E V A B L E action… Midfielder Josip Ilicic taking the penalty spot and it seems the pressure was too much to handle that he failed to convert the penalty sending his left footed shot way too high!   Disappointment clear ….   I need a Tylenol!

 

Here is FIORENTINA official starting lineup by coach Vincenzo Montella:

FIORENTINA (3-5-2): Neto; Basanta, Savić, G.Rodríguez; Joaquín, Borja Valero, Pizarro, Fernández, Alonso; Iličić, Salah.

Here is SEVILLA official starting lineup by coach Emery:
