Tears were shed from grown men on the weekend as we bid farewell to some fantastic players who have
graced Serie A. Alessandro Del Piero, Marco Di Vaio, Kaka Kaladze, Clarence Seedorf, Alessandro
Nesta, Pippo Inzaghi, Rino Gattuso and Gianluca Zambrotta played their last games for Juventus,
Bologna, Genoa and AC Milan.
Juventus have been crowned as Serie A Champions after a 2-0 away win at Cagliari after Inter 4-2
win over AC Milan which included a wonderful goal by Maicon. Parma has now won six in a row and
they are now level on points with Roma. Lecce and Genoa will have to fight on the last day of the
season for survival in Serie A.
We are in the final weeks of a compelling Serie A season and to top it off, we could see a big club
get relegated this season to Serie B. Genoa have been in freefall and not have won in the league
since early February. Genoa sit one point above the relegation zone and a rejuvenated Lecce side
under Serse Cosmi are gunning for them.
Serie A returned this week after the postponed fixtures off last week after the sad death of on
loan Udinese midfielder Piermario Morosini at Livorno. This weekend action on the pitch will be
remembered for Juventus putting a brilliant performance at home to Roma. Off the pitch it will be
remembered for the sour scenes in Genoa where the Ultras made their mark and disrupted the game
against Siena.
Yet another cracking weekend of Calcio in Serie A this weekend, where Juventus unbeaten run
amazingly still continues after they defeated Inter in the Derby D'Italia on Sunday evening with
Alessandro Del Piero rolling back the years. A Zlatan Ibrahimovic brace ensured the leaders picked
up three more points on Roma.

A weekend of football that was curtailed by the weather with two games being called off, also a
embarrassing weekend on the pitch for Inter as they were humiliated at home by Novara 1-0. What is
next for both Inter and Claudio Rainer after a sticky run in the past two weeks? Here are the five
best goals from the weekend 5.
The big freeze hit Italy during midweek as four games were called off, so only six games were
played over Wednesday and Thursday. Inter's 4-4 home draw with Palermo was the pick of the action
where Diego Milito and Fabrizio Miccoli shared seven out of the eight goals. AC Milan slipped away
at Lazio. Here are the five top goals of the week 5.
Serie A returned at the weekend after midweek Coppa Italia action and there was some compelling
matches played, and goals scored. Here is our pick of the bunch. Here are the top five goals of the
week 5. Alessandro Matri Juventus – Udinese A cracking winner by Matri as he scored his second
goal of the game and the one that proved to be the winner.
We are half way through the Serie A season; Juventus were crowned winter champions after a hard
fought 2-0 away win at Atalanta. Roma hit five on Saturday evening at home against Cesena where
Francesco Totti hit his 211th goal for the club. Inter Milan won their eighth straight game in all
competitions after defeating Lazio at the San Siro 2-1.
Incredible week in Serie A as Inter Milan win the derby for the first time in two years, thanks in
part to a goal from the prince Diego Milito. An abandoned game in Sicily where rain was a winner.
Catania-Roma was suspended with twenty-five minutes remaining. While Lecce, Parma and Cesena
struggling at the bottom of the league all managed to pick up wins and those crucial 3 points.
Serie A returned this weekend after the winter break and there was some cracking action to start
2012. Inter Milan, Siena and Udinese had massive victories. While Lazio, Parma and Cesena all
started 2012 miserably and the fans were thinking if their players were on holidays. Here are the
top five goals 5.
With another match day already upon us Serie A did not disappoint at the weekend and there was some
cracking action. Apart from Napoli all of the top teams in Italy picked up wins i.e. AC Milan,
Inter Milan, Juventus and Roma. Juventus returned to the top of the league. Here are the Top 5
Goals of Week 15 5.
Another fantastic weekend in Serie A and it did not disappoint with some absolute cracking goals.
Inter Milan got back to winning ways, AC Milan dropped points away at Bologna, Udinese were top for
a day before Juventus grabbed a point against Roma. The Serie A Weekly Top Five Goals of the Week
5. Giampaolo Pazzini Inter vs.
Another brilliant weekend in Serie A where two fallen giants must address their continued bad form.
Both Inter Milan and Roma were the talking points this weekend as both teams records domestically
continue to decay. Inter Milan lost at home to Udinese 1-0 where Roma lost 3-0 away at Fiorentina
and had 3 players sent off.
Serie A did not disappoint this weekend with some cracking action. Juventus won away at Lazio and
AC Milan hit four past Chievo to go joint second in the league. Here are the five goals of the
week. 5. Simone Pepe Lazio vs. Juventus Juventus broke on the counter attack and Alessandro Matri
on the left hand side crossed in for Simone Pepe to slot home and give Juventus the lead.
Serie A returned this weekend after international break and it returned with a bang with some
cracking action. Juventus continue their fine form while Udinese slipped to Parma who is replaced
at the top of the table by Juventus. Here are the top five goals of the weekend 5. Miralem Pjanic
Roma vs. Lecce A defence splitting ball by Daniele De Rossi found Rodrigo Taddei on the left who
crossed in.

Serie A returned with a bang at the weekend with some fantastic action. This week we got goals and
more goals which included seven goals between Lecce and AC Milan. Udinese finished on top of the
pile after a brilliant 3-0 over Novara. Here are the five top goals of the week 5. Alessandro Matri
Juventus – Genoa This was Alessandro Matri 2nd goal of the game and it was a brilliant goal.
There was some lack of goals in Serie A this week where 5 out of the 7 games on Sunday ended up
0-0. Some of the sceptics will be licking their lips saying that Serie A is a defensive league. 5
Pablo Osvaldo Roma vs. Lazio The opening goal from the Rome derby and it was Pablo Osvaldo with his
4th in 4 games.
Week 5 in Italy did not disappoint here are the top 5 goals of the weekend. 5. Bojan Roma vs.
Atalanta Daniele De Rossi with a fantastic ball over the top to Bojan who took in his stride and
finished calmly to net his first goal for the club 4. Alessio Cerci Fiorentina vs Lazio A purple
patch for the Italian winger, Stevan Jovetic crosses in for Cerci who chested the ball on finish
with ease by.
Lively weekend in Serie A, with amazingly only one game finishing in a draw (Parma-Lazio 1-1).
There were 26 goals scored this weekend in Serie A, with Napoli's 4-1 rout over Bologna the highest
scoring game. Only four teams (Bari, Genoa, Fiorentina, Udinese) failed to score a goal. Edinson
Cavani and Samuel Eto'o are still even steven at the top of the scoring chart with 9 goals each,
although Cavani has a chance to pull ahead because of Eto'o's 3-match ban.
There were 17 goals scored in Serie A this weekend, with only one 0-0 (Sampdoria-Chievo), and
the most popular score being 1-0 (half the games this weekend ended in a 1-0 scoreline). The
highest scoring game was Udinese's 4-0 thrashing of Lecce. Interesting to note this weekend that
two players, Antonio Di Natale and Javier Pastore, scored hat tricks.
There were 21 goals scored this weekend, which is funny because the preferred scoreline of this
weekend was 2-1: 6 out of the 10 games from the 8th giornata finished with a 2-1 scoreline. In
addition, teams were pretty strong at home this weekend, as only 1 team managed to grab an away
victory: Milan against Napoli (their first win at the Stadio San Paolo since 1998).
Slim pickings this week as only 14 goals were scored in the 6th round of Serie A, with the
highest scoring games only having 3 goals scored (Genoa-Bari 2-1 and Fiorentina-Palermo 2-1). No
change in the scoring chart either, with Samuel Eto'o and Edinson Cavani still on top with 5 goals
each.
Another week of goals in Serie A. This week, 25 goals were scored around the peninsula, with
only 1 game finishing in a scoreless draw (Sampdoria-Udinese 0-0). The highest scoring game was
Juventus-Cagliari, with 6 goals in a 4-2 Juventus win. First goals in Serie A for Panagiotis Kone
of Brescia, Marco Parolo of Cesena, Milos Krasic of Juventus (hat trick), and Mauricio Pinilla of
Palermo.
The first midweek round of Serie A has been played, which makes the programming schedule a
little bit different, meaning here's another post from the "Weekend that was" series, except this
one is "weekday that was". Serie A giants Brescia and Chievo are fulfilling their Scudetto
ambitions and have a near perfect start with 9 points each, while minnows like Milan, Fiorentina,
Roma, and Juventus are all struggling.
There were only 24 goals scored this weekend in Serie A, which is much less than the 38 scored
the previous weekend. Only one game was 0-0 (Bari-Cagliari), but most of the other games were
low-scoring. The highest scoring games were Roma-Bologna (2-2) and Udinese-Juve (0-4) with 4 goals
apiece.
If you loved checking out the Italy Offside every Tuesday last season just to see the Serie A
Goals of the Week post and it's cool logo, fear not, because it's back! There were 38 goals scored
this weekend in Serie A (which is pretty high for Serie A standards) and only 2 teams went
scoreless: Milan and Fiorentina.
A few GotW round-ups for you. First off we have Romain Poyet (2:06) with a stunner of a volley
for Brest. 101greatgoals.com has a top ten list, with the goal of the week going to Pavlyuchenko
for being on the receiving end of Gareth Bale magic against Inter.
Wow, MLS is getting better and better. Some great goals scored this week! My vote goes to
Philly's Le Toux. His touch and finish was class. He made that look easy and it's not easy to
make it look easy.
