After 3 giornate, only 3 clubs are still at full points: Sampdoria, who defeated Atalanta 1-0 in Bergamo with a goal from Daniele Mannini; Juventus, who saw Lazio off with a 2-0 win thanks to Martin Caceres and David Trezeguet; and Genoa, who thumped Napoli 4-1 with Sergio Floccari, Giandomenico Mesto, Hernan Crespo, and Houssine Kharja all scoring their first goals of the season.

Seedorf's wonderful solo effort on 75 minutes was enough for Milan to claim all three points at home against Bologna. It was not the most inspiring match nor will it fill Rossoneri hearts with hope for the season, however, it was a strong enough performance by the Leonardo's side to pick up a vital win.

It was a weekend of some nice goals. First, let's just say that Fabio Quagliarella ALMOST scored the goal of the season (he did however score 2 goals on the night). You can watch that video here. Diego scored his first goals in Serie A, Julio Cruz scored his first goals for Lazio, Alberto Paloschi continues to look more and more like the new Pippo Inzaghi, Giampaolo Pazzini continues to score, and Antonio Cassano worked some magic again.

Some nice goals this week. We're still very early into the season, but two possible goal of the year candidates were scored this weekend. Samuel Eto'o's strike vs. Parma and Giandomenico Mesto's screamer vs. Napoli are joys to behold. Goals of the week after the jump.

After reports that Ronaldinho may be retiring, Milan needed a convincing victory against Bologna while Juventus and Inter wished to continue their good starts to the season.

So here are the results and to be honest, no great surprises in what occurred.

Napoli 0-0 Udinese

Juventus 2-0 Livorno

Catania 1-1 Lazio

Milan 1-0 Bologna

Sampdoria 4-1 Siena

Cagliari 1-2 Inter Milan

Parma 1-0 Palermo

Bari 4-1 Atalanta

Chievo 3-1 Genoa

Roma 3-1 Fiorentina

A good away victory for Inter sees them enter the top three for the first time this season.

Bologna Football Club 1909 is an Italian football club based in Bologna, Emilia-Romagna. They were formed in 1909. The club is nicknamed the Rossoblù because of the red and blue striped shirts they wear. Bologna F.C. was promoted to the Italian Serie A for the 2008/09 season, having last played in the top division in 2004/05.

AC Milan host Bologna on Sunday looking to pick up where they left off in midweek. Fiorentina will have Romanian striker Adrian Mutu available for Sunday's clash at Roma.

A solitary goal from veteran Clarence Seedorf was enough to overcome Bologna at the San Siro.

The majestic awesomeness of the Champions League theme song is something we have all long been aware of, but AC Milan have gone beyond mere appreciation and actually had the genius stroke to harness its untold powers to help them in their domestic campaign.

Having realized that their form in their Champions League has often been better than their form in Serie A in recent years, the club's vice president Adriano Galliani decided to have the team listen to the song before Sunday's game against Bologna.

I always like to watch videos of bloopers, and this time I've found a Serie A blooper video from the early 2000's. Always entertaining, and it includes a mistake from Buffon!! (how often do you see those?)

Video after the jump.

And since we're on the topic of Buffon mistakes, here's another one I remember from a couple of years ago:

Both Milan and Roma pulled off wins in their respective games against Bologna and Fiorentina yesterday. Inter also managed a 2-1 victory over Cagliari thanks to a Diego Milito double. "The pitch was awful, the ball bounced in a strange way, but in the end it went well and these points are very important.

Lots of goals scored this week, with only one 0-0 draw (Napoli-Udinese) and many teams scoring 3+ goals. There were some nice ones this week. Goals after the jump.

Emanuel Rivas vs. Atalanta - The Bari midfielder scores a nice opening goal. Dribbles to the center and unleashes a laser strike from around 20 yards out.

Sampdoria coach Luigi Del Neri has heaped praise on talisman Antonio Cassano after seeing his side go top of Serie A.
Champions Inter Milan welcome Napoli to the San Siro, AC Milan go to Udinese, Roma and Palermo clash in Sicily and Lazio square off with Parma in the Eternal City.

It's crunch time in Serie A, as clubs must play three games in the span of 8 days this week, and even more over the next eleven days if they are playing in international competitions.

It's a Bad Month to Be a Milan Fan: Not only is rival Inter atop the Serie A standings, Milan lost yesterday to Udinese for its second defeat on the year.

Saper gestire il macht

C'è un minimo comune denominatore nella Juve di questo mese e mezzo: la pessima gestione delle gare. E' successo contro il Chievo, in maniera più evidente contro la Roma, poi contro il Bordeaux, contro il Livorno con uno straordinario Buffon, fino ad arrivare ad oggi pomeriggio, dove il Bologna ha meritato di raggiungere il pareggio nel finale.

Sono incazzato come una biscia. La partita di ieri, contro il modestissimo Bologna, andava vinta in scioltezza e con almeno due goal di scarto. Non serve a nulla triturare Roma e Lazio a domicilio, se poi si impatta con una squadretta di questo calibro in casa. Soprattutto se la "corazzata piu' forte del millennio", nel frattempo viene affondata da un'ottima Sampdoria e il mister dei nerassuri sbrocca di testa evidenziando le prime tensioni con la societa'.

Sampdoria are top of the table alone for the first time in 18 years. A week ago I wrote an article saying that Sampdoria could be the surprise of the season, and right now that hypothesis is still holding up. While it's almost impossible for them to win the scudetto and considering the fact that Gigi Del Neri's teams usually suffer a drop in form after the winter break, they should be challenging for a spot in Europe next season, whether that be Europa League or Champions League that remains to be seen.

I'm just going to throw it out there: this might be the worst goals of the week post of all time. Nothing spectacular at all this weekend, most goals were very plain and ordinary. Of the 18 goals scored this weekend, about 3 are top goal worthy. But let's see this week's goals of the week (hoping that Giornata 7 brings us better ones):

Massimo Maccarone vs.
