Italian Soccer Serie A

Hello, my friends. Here are the 2019-2020 Serie A Week 1 Results / First Round on Saturday 24, Sunday 25, and Monday 26 August 2019.  It’s the kickoff of the season and let me tell you that I am so excited with the adventure.  Are you?   Well, we have some surprising results and, by the way, allow me to welcome again the three Serie B teams promoted to the Serie A: Hellas Verona, Lecce, and Brescia.

Sure, the most awaited match was that of Parma vs Juventus.  Why?  Well, Juventus winning 8 consecutive Scudetto, is the reigning Champions of Italy.  To say the truth, I was expecting more goals in this game.  The match ended Parma 0 – 1 Juventus with Captain Giorgio Chiellini scoring for Juventus.  Unfortunately, Cristiano Ronaldo scored a goal but it was disallowed for offside.

Inter crushing Lecce newly promoted to Serie A.  Inter Coach Antonio Conte making his  debut with the Nerazzurri with this important home victory with a 4-0 at the Giuseppe Meazza Stadium.  Inter is leading the Serie A with 3 points and a positive goal difference of +4.  Definitely, it is a nightmare for Lecce on their debut with this humiliation.  Anyway, it’s only the first match and everything might change in the next rounds.

The match Fiorentina 3 – 4 Napoli was a real thriller. Wow! BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM!!!!  There were 7 goals in this round.  Fiorentina took the lead, but it was unable to keep the victory.  Napoli overturned the result and grabbed this important away victory.  You bet, we already have a candidate for the Scudetto.

Lazio delighted their fans at the Luigi Ferraris Stadium with a superb performance.  Lazio crushed Sampdoria with a 0 – 3.  It is a flop for Sampdoria.  Definitely, it was a great start of the season for Lazio now leading the Serie A Standing with 3 points and a positive goal difference of 3.  A top match for Lazio forward Ciro Immobile scoring 2 goals and the other one by  Joaquín Correa.

I will give a big flop to AC Milan still struggling to return to their “once glorious past.”  Udinese defeated AC Milan at the Friuli Stadium with 1 goal.   The goal was scored by Rodrigo Becão . Milan not showing signs of improvements compared to last season.  New AC Milan coach Marco Giampaolo made his debut with a defeat.  Let’s not forget that AC Milan objective is to return to the UEFA Champions League.

Good match for newly promoted Serie B team “Brescia.”  Yep. Brescia defeated Cagliari at the Sardegna Arena with  a 0 – 1.  The goal scored by Alfredo Donnarumma converting a penalty.

AS Roma and Genoa ended with a 3 – 3 draw.  It is not a good start for Roma considering they were also playing at home.  Boh! The real test for Roma will be next week when playing the “Derby della Capitale” against Lazio at the Olimpico.  Roma will have to boost their performance because another defeat will just be putting the sign for “warning.”
