Italian serie A Day XII: Lazio 1 - 2 Milan

Sun, 8 Nov 2009 16:13:59 -0600

From our special envoy Gabriella

An In-form AC Milan moved up to 3^rd place in Serie A after inflicting a home defeat on Lazio which leaves the Rome side floating just above the relegation zone.

Thiago Silva put the visitors ahead in the 21st minute before Alexandre Pato extended his team's lead before the break.

Lazio reduced the arrears in the 64th minute when Silva deflected Mauro Zarate's strike into his own goal.

The hosts had chances to level the score but Milan held on to claim all three points.

The outcome means it is four wins in the last five league games for Leonardo's Milan while Lazio are still searching for their first triumph since August 30.

The hosts went into the game on the back of a 4-1 midweek humiliation at Villarreal in the Europa League.

Davide Ballardini's men enjoyed a good start and should have taken an early lead.

Roberto Baronio's pass found an unmarked Tommaso Rocchi inside the area and he fired wide.

Shortly after, Aleksandar Kolarov's left-footed strike forced Dida to make a good save.

At the other end, Lazio goalkeeper Fernando Muslera did well to keep out Massimo Oddo's strike from the edge of the area.

There was little Muslera could do to prevent the Rossoneri taking the lead as Silva latched onto a free-kick by Andrea Pirlo and nodded past Muslera.

The Rossoneri maintained the pressure and almost doubled their advantage soon after.

Pato did well to get behind Pirlo's cross from the right but his weak header proved an easy catch for Muslera.

The home side reacted and almost levelled the score on the half-hour mark when Zarate smashed in a powerful free-kick that Dida managed to palm over the bar.

Ten minutes before half-time and Pato made it 2-0.

Ronaldinho's cross found his fellow Brazilian inside the area and Pato's header went inside the top right-hand corner of the goal.

Dida made sure his team went into the break with a 2-0 lead, diving to his right to parry away Matuzalem's stinging drive from distance.

Ballardini made his first substitution after the re-start, with Julio Cruz replacing Stefano Mauri, but Milan's dominance continued in the second half.

Pirlo's curled free-kick went just over the bar.

Shortly after, Marco Borriello did well to control Pirlo's pass inside the area but was unable to fire on target.

On the hour mark, Massimo Ambrosini made a crucial clearance inside the area with Cruz ready to strike from close range.

Lazio reduced the deficit soon after, with Dida having no chance to save Zarate's deflected shot.

The goal inspired the hosts, who surged forward looking for an equaliser.

They were almost rewarded with 15 minutes remaining.

Meghni's cross from the left found Rocchi inside the area but his header went wide.

The visitors dominated the closing stages of the game.

Muslera made a great save to deny Flamini while the Lazio keeper was forced to fully stretch to clear Pato's killer strike from the edge of the area in what was the last chance of the game.

Milan - Real Madrid 1 - 1

Tue, 3 Nov 2009 16:53:39 -0600

From our special envoy Gabriella

A draw at the San Siro means a cruise into the second round.

Alexandre Pato had a goal controversially disallowed moments later before Dida denied Raul a late winner in a dramatic game at the San Siro.

Both coaches chose form over tradition with their team selections.

Filippo Inzaghi, just one goal short of Gerd Muller's all-time record of 69 goals in European competition, was left on the Milan bench with Leonardo preferring Marco Borriello, who scored both goals in the 2-0 win over Parma at the weekend.

And Raul, who is just one goal behind Inzaghi on 67, was also benched as Real coach Manuel Pellegrini keeping his faith in Gonzalo Higuain, whose brace earned three points against Getafe.

Kaka was given a warm reception on his return to the San Siro but, after he inspired Real to a bright start, that applause soon turned to jeers.

Sergio Ramos and Benzema both sent shots inches wide of the post, with keeper Dida clearly beaten on both occasions.

Milan threatened against the run of play when Clarence Seedorf sent Pato clear on Iker Casillas, but the Real goalkeeper kept his composure to save with his right hand.

Real then took a deserved lead in the 29th minute when Kaka skipped past Seedorf, who practically invited him to shoot.

His effort took a slight deflection off Thiago Silva, which probably did enough to prevent Dida from holding onto the ball. It spilled into the path of Benzema, who shot into the far corner from a tight angle.

Milan responded and were gifted the chance to equalise when Gianluca Zambrotta's cross hit the arm of Pepe, just a yard away from him, inside the penalty area. Referee Felix Brych pointed to the penalty spot and Ronaldinho blasted the ball into the roof of the net.

The game was transformed and Milan looked to capitalise with Pato scoring what looked like a perfectly valid goal, but Brych saw something he did not like in the build-up and ruled it out.

There had been such a pace to the first half that the second 45 minutes simply could not carry on in the same manner, and so it was that the game lost its way slightly.

The best chance for Milan was squandered by Inzaghi - who, like Raul, was sent on as a final throw of the dice.

He was on the end of an inviting cross from Massimo Oddo in the 84th minute, but Pepe did just enough to unsettle the Milan striker, who lifted the ball over the crossbar from point-blank range. And Dida saved Milan in the 89th minute with a fine reflex save to turn Raul's shot behind for a corner when it looked like the Spaniards were going to steal victory.

Juventus 2 - 3 Napoli

Sat, 31 Oct 2009 18:08:49 -0500

Olimpico di Torino clash for the first advance of the Saturday two of the more interesting teams to think about: Juventus and Napoli, the Bianconeri, risen with goleada loudly against the Sampdoria, are expected to confirm the progress expressed blatantly Wednesday, only continuity of performance and results are in fact the ingredients in order to erect a credible contenders' s Inter.

The Azzurri, under the guidance of Mazzarri, have shrunk as a group, growing conviction and determination, with the consequent conquest of 7 points on the nine available, corroborated by a desire to believe in it that allowed them to score as many as 4 goals in injury time.

Great is thus an expectation in Turin for a classic of Italian football, who has lived his most striking chapters in the days of Maradona's Napoli, and therefore refers the public for special occasions, filling the stands in a setting of warm and fans colored.

Ferrara has a 4-2-3-1 with Juventus Buffon, Grygera, Cannavaro, Chiellini, Grosso; Poulsen (from 77 ° Amauri), Melo, Diego, Giovinco (85 ° De Ceglie), Camoranesi (31 ° Tiago), Trezeguet.

Mazzarri responds deploy Naples with a 3-4-3, De Sanctis; Campagnaro (from 58th Dátolo), Cannavaro, Contini; May, Gargano, Cigarini, Aronica, Lavezzi (from 87 ° Patience), Hamsik, Denis (from 69 ° Quagliarella).

It takes 18 seconds to Juventus to create the first scoring, Camoranesi Giovinco is avoiding the offside trap and is presented only in front of De Sanctis, the diagonal of the Juventus playmaker, however, is just off and gets lost on the side of a span.

The response of Naples, after a header from the top of Denis, comes with an assist on the 6th of May too violent Denis in which we do not get crushed in a breath with Buffon already passed.

Juventus try to make the match but after the initial embarrassment Naples tighten the defense and closes all passages offensive to the hosts, really unimaginative and predictable.

The Naples with the minutes passed and grows, taking advantage of the gaps left by the offensive sorties Juventus occurs more often from parts of Buffon, and Aaron first with a shot from 20 meters to the violent forcing the goalkeeper, new father, to divert more than the crossbar at 20 °, on developments in the corner and Lavezzi to touch the target bulk.

Juventus seems difficult to contain attacks and guests leave with danger, still the head tank to 23 to miss by sending the ball heading wide of a breath, finally, Juventus and reacts with Felipe Melo missing the goal for a trifle with a shot that grazes the pole to 26 °.

At 31 ° Camoranesi struck out randomly by Contini, for a deep cut in the face,

Tiago in its place, three minutes later, after a long-acting maneuvered, Grygera calibrate a cross into the area, Trezeguet jumps higher than all the advantage to beat De Sanctis Bianconeri.

The game is vibrant and full of reversals in the face before and Giovinco, served by Poulsen not realize then is to try to Gargano out with Buffon that accompanies the ball for a corner, finally De Sanctis anticipate Trezeguet, launched by Grosso.

If the first time it was great that recovery is incredible, after a series of high-risk situations in an area and the other at 50 ° Trezeguet Poulsen serves on the band, the French put the center where the head is all alone Contini unfortunately Giovinco, for little imagination is simple to realize displacing De Sanctis in a kind of rigor in motion.

After an accident like a team less convinced and determined it could risk the defeat, but the Neapolitan seem to ignore what had happened and toss the assault metacampo opponent.

At 58 ° Mazzarri decides a change that seems risky, outside and inside Campagnaro Dátolo, obviously Mr. Toscano is a true magician, kissed by that bit of fortune favors the bold, passes just a minute and just steals it Dátolo on the left wing and puts at the center, the ball is not a bunch of players at the near post and draws Hamsik, perfectly free at the far post for Slovak and a breeze to beat Buffon with a shot of dish from bottom to top.

Juventus looks on her knees and gives no tangible signs of reaction, the Naples believes and continues to attack, at 64 °, the development of a corner, Denis impact of head, Buffon saved the desperate, but the ball still comes Tanke who can only touch, but is ready to hit Dátolo sub and put the equalizer.

The Bianconeri, having thrown to the winds the double advantage, he threw himself desperately in attack, but they do it with ideas rather than a disorderly and confused, go for Amauri Poulsen, but 82 ° is the Naples area that draws on a restart with textbook hail from the ball to Lavezzi Dátolo always him who set gently in area, Tiago flying scissors in his dirty hit on feet dell'accorrente that Hamsik, flat, scores a sensational goal, which completes the comeback of the blue, giving them even advantage.

The desperate final forcing Juventus produces only an occasion for De Ceglie that undersized, poorly cross svirgola of external Trezeguet, and a furious scrum in front of goal with De Sanctis that saves the feet of Amauri, the Brazilian touches the foot face of the goalkeeper, he was born a general melee that brings the referee D'Amato to show the red card to Brazil.

Ends up with the incredible, but all in all deserved victory of Naples, who returns to conquer the land of Juventus after 21 years, able to return to the surface after it, quite unexpectedly, finished in 2 to 0, still a large firm of blue when the hand is seen Mazzarri is all right if the team will follow its directives Neapolitan fans have something to rejoice this year.

Juventus really do not know what to say, already the approach to the match I had thought of the best, the only form with Melo and Poulsen in midfield to dam it seemed too light to oppose the strong and equipped median Naples, then on trovatisi double advantage, the Bianconeri are literally sunk the team has seemed helpless and with even fewer ideas, Diego who has seen it?

The best: Chiellini and Trezeguet at Juventus, in Naples Dátolo and Hamsik.

Milan 2 - 0 Parma

Sat, 31 Oct 2009 18:08:06 -0500

At San Siro on Saturday night bill proposes a very interesting challenge in a key Champions League match between AC Milan and the newcomers Parma, who are the fifth and fourth rung of the Serie A standings

The Rossoneri, after the disappointment of Wednesday evening in Naples, where they have thrown to the winds in injury time which would have been an important success in key league, try to get back on track tonight, winning three key points for the championship went on, without being too distracted by the thought of the game Tuesday night against Real Madrid.

As against the Ducali, back in Serie A this year, under the able guidance Guidolin technique, amazed everyone by their strength for the game and especially to express the series of successes that catapulted them to a surprise fourth place in the standings alone.

Leonardo relies on convincing 4-3-3 and deploy with Milan Dida, Antonini (from 52 ° Zambrotta), Kaladze, Thiago Silva, Oddo, Pirlo, Seedorf (82nd Flamini), Gattuso (from 74 ° Ambrosini) , Ronaldinho, Pato, Borriello.

Guidolin Parma responds by deploying a 4-4-2 with Mirante; Della Fiore, Zaccardo, Panucci, Lucarelli; Dzemaili (from 61 ° Amoruso), Morrone, Lunardini, Galloppa (from 76 to Budel) Paloschi, Bojinov (from 70 ° Lanzafame).

After the usual initial skirmish, which lets you see the game plans of the two teams with Milan, which relies on two groups to disrupt the opponent's defense and Parma, who chooses instead restarts operated across the board, are the Dukes to go the first notebook with a shot of Bojinov is lost to the side.

10th and Dzemaili to win the ball on the ground and trocar, an accomplice to a lack of output contrast of central defenders, is focused and explodes a great shot from 25 yards which Dida takes a big hand managing to deflect against the crossbar.

The response is immediate, Milan, Pirlo wins the 13th ball on his own three-quarters and serve immediately Dinho on the left wing, the Brazilian forward and delivers the ball 20 yards Borriello, just beyond the line of host defense that first intention of pulling the door and making a mockery Mirante pass the ball between the legs for the goal of the Rossoneri's advantage.

Milan seeking to take advantage of the moment by relying on the good mood to Oddo who comes forward and backward on the band, but alas wrong almost systematically final finishing.

Parma is discovered in an attempt to find the balance, leaving much space in midfield, he enjoys the game that you watch with interest.

Nice the action of Parma at 32 ° with Paloschi serving Gallop, the interior reaches the bottom of Duke's Center for Bojinov and that, at the far post, a sure shot hit the head, Dida again is extraordinary, with an incredible shot kidney fails to remove the ball from the door.

AC Milan makes a difference on the left wing due to the perfect understanding of the couple Antonini-Ronaldinho, are born a couple of dangerous incursions saved at the last moment the visiting defense.

The half ends with a chance to party before and Galloppa to waste a valuable assist to Paloschi pulling weak and the central limit and facilitating the capture of two times Dida, then the Rossoneri have to waste a goal already done that with Borriello, received the ball inside the box, instead turning to the door seeking support for an unlikely Dinho.

The recovery part with Parma's most compact and determined that tries to raise the pace to embarrass the Milan, the 49th tries from outside Galloppa, Dida controls barely a shudder giving land to their supporters.

The Rossoneri are trying to control the match and attack on the final touch with the play of her imagination, beautiful and prolonged the action area that increased to 12 ° Seedorf to turn to 8 feet from the door and throw a nice rasoterrra that rejects Mirante foot.

But soon the good intentions of the two teams go into the attic spaces are once again expand in parallel with the decrease of forces, the Rossoneri fail a few times to finish the edge of the area, with Duke's defenders always alert and ready to address in front of goal.

At 25 ° resounding failure of the arbitrator does not award a penalty to Milan solar action sandwich of two defenders against Pato, Paloschi One minute later, launched behind enemy lines, ending at the output side desperate Dida, the reversal in front of the linesman stops just in front of Pato Mirante, but the replay gave him wrong, the Brazilian had left the position regularly.

Parma all the attempts, Guidolin jumped into the fray Amoruso and Lanzafame, just that commits Dida a parade in two stages with a shot from 16 meters.

The finale, with United long and knees, suddenly turns to '86 ° for a sumptuous descent Thiago Silva who won the ball in midfield, arrived on the trocar Borriello and serves on the band, the center, won the bottom line closes perfectly the triangle with the Brazilian defender, who misses the easiest thing blatantly hitting the crossbar head no more than 5 meters.

The icing on the cake, however, puts more than 92 ° Borriello who served as a delightful cross from Ronaldinho, he performs a sensational scissors that sends the ball flying into the network with the edge of the pole, away from an astonished Mirante.

Ends up with a deserved victory for the Rossoneri that are even more to the common areas of the rankings, and that, gradually and steadily becoming a real team, firm, conscious of its own means and especially well balanced, with the three fantasists who seem finally conditions rather than discrete and a pair of well-stocked with fast strikers Pato and Borriello powerful.

Parma tries to do its part, undertakes and fights with passion, with Guidolin more times that mixes the cards changing schedules and men, building their good opportunities, but fail to express.

The best: Borriello and Ronaldinho in Milan, in Parma Galloppa and Lucarelli.

Inter 5 - 3 Palermo

Thu, 29 Oct 2009 18:32:18 -0500

After the roaring Wednesday, full of goals and emotions, it is up to league leaders Inter close the X-day, round opponent of the Palermo former, never forgotten, Zenga.

On the eve of the match is lived on the beautiful statements made by Mourinho on Zenga and the special relationship of friendship that binds it to him, however, fully reciprocated by the former number one Inter.

After five rings the league launched last night by Juventus, exit fortified and inspired by its direct clash with Sampdoria, Inter has called to gather with proven successful, but mainly just as convincing and commanding, the gauntlet trowed the eternal rivals Juventus.

The Rosanero Sicily, past the headlines last summer as a result of bombastic statements by Zenga on a Palermo in contention for the title, met initially more of a difficulty going to encounter some setbacks and performance far from convincing, but lately seem to have chosen the right path and arrived three wins in a row that they have relaunched the noble area of the league.

Mourinho chose a 4-3-1-2 and relies on Julio Cesar, Maicon, Cordoba, Samuel, Chivu (46 ° Santon), Muntari, Zanetti, Cambiasso, Stankovic; Eto'o (75 ° Motta), Balotelli (from 49 ° Milito).

Zenga answer relying on a 3-4-1-2 with Sirigu, Goian, Kjaer, Migliaccio; Melinte (46 ° Hernandez), Simplicio (from 86 ° Nocerino), Bresciano, Cassani, Pastore (85 ° Bertolo) , Miccoli, Cavani.

No time to settle in the area and the whole passage, Melinte, drawn from a surprise Zenga, ruin stupidly Balotelli in area, impeccable penalty that Eto'o turns displacing Sirigu minute number 7.

The reaction of Palermo is weak and it involves a very high bad shoot Simplicio, the Rosanero seem provocative, unbalanced, nearly split in half and, when they lose the ball, you give the Nerazzurri terrifying restarts, tries Eto ' or a deviation wheel, the ball just high end.

Inter appear to have opponents at will, driven by a Balotelli, feverish, but really unstoppable, Simplicio dismissed after a shot by Julio Cesar, Maicon and another rejected by Sirigu edge of the pole, it is precisely to devour SuperMario the easiest of goals header wide from a lovely cross from near the bottom.

Palermo tries, first with a free kick from the edge on which Kjaer is tugged in area, details of the penalty would seem to be there, then it's time to Miccoli's free-kick to commit Julio Cesar that comes at the very last moment and deflects for a corner .

Inter put on fire the halfcourt opposing, first and Eto'o to commit Sirigu a difficult intervention, the goalkeeper saved with the help of the crossbar, then comes the inevitable doubling, to 34 °, the development of a corner kick from the right, Balotelli is ready to find the height of the first pile of bags and head.

Palermo reacts with such a huge opportunity that happens on the feet of Cavani, only in area, which tow the chest but then kicks unbelievably wide from two steps.

The finish is a real nightmare for Rosanero suffering two goals in a minute, Balotelli is still at 42 ° to give the coup de grace, crushed to a header from Cambiasso after an unfortunate collision between aircraft Sirigu and Kjaer at 43 ° is always Balotelli to win the bottom line and serve a delicious assists for the onrushing Eto'o who puts near to the first post.

Ends the first time with the devastating impression of a whole, responding tit for tat to goleada Juventus yesterday, Palermo and a dazed and confused that sinks beneath the merciless blows of the opponent.

At the beginning of recovery two substitutions changed the course of the race, in Rosanero enters Hernandez to a frightened and disastrous Melinte in Inter Santon succeeds Chivu.

Inter remain with the head in the locker room while the other team seems a Palermo, compact, convinced, determined and lethal.

In 18 minutes the guests leave in goals three times by reopening the game at 49 ° is Miccoli, launched by Simplicio, get rid of Cordoba and strength to overcome Julio Cesar output at 62 ° Cassani, fished just beyond the defensive line Nerazzurri, Center low for the onrushing Hernandez flat bags, then to the 67th passage no look delicious Cassani only area which is Miccoli, precise touch of fantasy to overcome Julio Cesar output.

Inter in the second half, close to scoring only with Milito on 4 to 2 with a shot at sure shot grazed by Kjaer just enough to let go a few inches from the pole, finally rallied and put a muzzle on the kids to Zenga, than just getting good are lost.

The sensational solo effort, stubborn and irrepressible, Maicon in excess of the Pastore Center and bottom low for Milito who has no problem in Sirigu to beat the goal that finally closes the game at 83 °.

The half ends with still a number of occasions by both sides not materialize for a trifle, I'm trying Hernandez with a shot that ends up, then Miccoli with a free kick from the edge rejected by Julio Cesar, who is finally Motta sees rejected by Sirigu hurled the shot from close range.

Inter, showing his usual devastating power athletics, accompanied and enhanced by tram and intoxicating with Balotelli and Eto'o still elusive to the rear guest, so a tame Palermo with two sides, vulnerable in the first half, cynical and practical in recovery

What is not convinced that the resumption of the Inter does turn up their noses at Mourinho and the fans, the team sits on the large advantage, pulling the plug and seeing almost powerless to attempt to climb the opponents, only to be able to regroup and reentering in the match, helped from opponent's braking, stopped inexplicably after the third goal.

Zenga is overall a good figure, completely misses the training and tactical initial form, then, in the locker room can give input and to his conviction, and with some well-aimed choices, manages to re-open the match and frighten his old home ground, Palermo confirmed team perspective, with some great individuality and various patterns and fungible.

In the end everyone enjoyed themselves that this was one of the best games of the year, Inter respond, if ever it were needed, to Juventus, confirming that arrived before the 38th day will be difficult if not impossible, for all but confirming true to his innate character, team-mad ...

The best: in Inter Balotelli and Maicon in Palermo Miccoli and Cassani.

From our special envoy C.

Hello Dear Readers Welcome to Switzerland is a good defender must first clear the opposing team's forwards, is proof that players remain in the collective memory as Baresi, Scirea, Bergomi, Ferri, I leave you to complete the list that certainly were not present (except in exceptional and rare) in the match markers. But the recent performance of Alessandro Nesta, first returned to optimum levels as an advocate, but in the match against Chievo lethal even with a shotgun near goal that gave the 3 points to Chievo makes topical curiosity on the propensity of the offensive players that make up or departments that made up the arrears of the teams in Serie A. This curiosity combined with the first publication of the ranking of Fantaliga "Welcome Switzerland is" too full of goals scored and conceded, leads me to suggest this article that I found on the online version of the "Gazzetta dello Sport," but first I propose the classification of Fantaliga above updated after 7 days:

The results of the meetings of the seventh day, they are closing the post on skis, by C. which is the predecessor of this. Thank you all, look I erred Marco. A special greeting to Basileus (thanks for the work on goal in the first 5 days) and Luke Oprandi (back soon this community expects you).

Two goals from Milan and Nesta reopen reproduce the limelight defenders who go to the network. There is also the feat of another defender Cesare Bovo: his shooting decides in favor of the Palermo match with Udinese. Nesta had never scored two goals in his career in the same race until all'exploit in Verona, Milan defender had made four centers: one with Lazio (88-89), three with Milan for a season (2002-03 , 05-06 and 07-08). Bovo instead is on his sixth goal in Serie A. It marked a historic in Lecce in 2003-04: his signature 2-1 Inter on May 2 that is the salvation for the team from Puglia.

You say full-backs who can score and immediately thought to Giacinto Facchetti. He started his career as a striker in Treviglio, Herrera then turned it back on. In 476 league games he scored 59 goals, which must be added in 6 European Cups (73 matches) and 10 in the Coppa Italy (85 caps). His season record in the 1966-67 season in which Facchetti Heinsohn scored 10 goals Behind Facchetti Maldera Aldo's, 9 goals in the 1978-79 season, in which AC Milan won its tenth Scudetto, while in the previous had scored one less. 36 goals throughout his career, which began tentatively in Milan when she gave the Rivera. Even Antonio Cabrini was a quarterback who scored often. His tally in Serie A is 35 goals, scored the final two when he played in Bologna at the end of his career. In all other Juve in 13 championships and 297 games, its seasonal peak in '81-82 and '83-84 with 5 goals. In the national center has done 9 times, a record for a defender blue.

There is a defender who goes to the network with ease: this is Simone Loria, currently the central Turin. After the first goal nell'Olbia (c2), Battipagliese and Lecco (c1), Loria years 2002-03 has always been central to each sample. Began in Cagliari in Serie B, 3 goals first and then 7, and sign the match of the markers with the Sardinians in A: a network in 2004-2005. Loria's career-scorer continues nell'Atalanta: 6 goals in B and 5 in the following season in A. It is not denied even to Siena, made 5 league goals in 2007-08, while last year marked only once with the jersey of Roma. The header his specialty.

Eraldo Mancin was not a full-back who scored a lot: five goals in his entire career, one in Verona in Serie B, the other four in Cagliari. Of these three in the same game: May 23, 1971, the last day of the championship. Cagliari, who plays for the last time with the Scudetto on the shirt, sweeps the Verona with a triple-back Veneto. Which also boasts another record: it is one of five players who have won two league titles later in two different teams. Mancin, after winning in 68-69 with Fiorentina, has made an encore in Cagliari. The others are John Ferrari, Riccardo Toros, Roberto Baggio and Alessandro Orlando.

I apologize for the delay in the exposition of the results of the seventh day of my mini league, maybe in the last few days I arrive a little late, but the things I do and just, and I'm working on (free) for 19 friends. I propose 3 games with prizes and are two and a half that users (and many other nations complain about a game not correct).

Well here's the seventh day, as the ends observers will notice that teams had averaged 40 points race (having a total of 240 points in six games) reduced by 50% their performance, evidence that a poorly managed game by ole ole, resulting lack of interest, there is no reduction of benefits for 90% and even those who had less significant declines still sees a reduction in its performance! Speaking of 20 teams and not a thing should be thinking!

Chievo Verona 1 - 2 Milan

Sun, 25 Oct 2009 18:24:54 -0500

From our special envoy Gabriella

Alessandro Nesta scored twice, including a stoppage-time winner, as AC Milan came from behind to beat Chievo tonight.

Giampiero Pinzi put the home side ahead in the seventh minute but Chievo were unable to hold onto their advantage and succumbed to some heavy late pressure.

Nesta scored the equaliser in the 81st minute before heading home the winner deep in time added on.

The outcome lifted Milan up to sixth position in the Serie A standings and left them seven points behind leaders and city rivals Inter.

The visitors went into the game looking to cap a great week which had seen them beat Roma 2-1 before claiming a 3-2 triumph away to Real Madrid in the Champions League.

Leonardo opted to play in-form Alexandre Pato, Klaas-Jan Huntelaar and Ronaldinho in attack but it was the hosts who started strongly.

Michele Marcolini warmed the palms of Dida with a stinging drive from the distance which the keeper turned over for a corner.

Chievo broke the deadlock soon after when an unmarked Pinzi latched onto Andrea Mantovani's cross before firing past Dida on the volley from the centre of the six-yard box.

Dida was called into action soon after to save Sergio Pellissier's right-footed strike from the edge of the area.

Milan should have equalised in the 15th minute after Luca Antonini fed Clarence Seedorf inside the area, but the Dutchman's right-footed strike was saved by Chievo goalkeeper Stefano Sorrentino.

On the half-hour mark, Pato wasted a good chance to restore parity with his close-range header from Pirlo's cross going high and wide.

Pellissier twice had the chance to extend his team's lead before the break.

He fired a left-footed strike from Pinzi's cross just over the bar with Dida already beaten, while seconds later his close-range header went wide.

Shortly after the re-start, Milan passed up a glorious chance to draw level as Pirlo missed an open goal.

Sorrentino did well to anticipate Pato but his clearance fell to Pirlo, who fired high over the bar.

Leonardo then made his first substitution with Marco Borriello replacing Huntelaar.

Borriello should have done better in the 68th minute after meeting Massimo Oddo's cross but he only manage a weak header that proved an easy catch for Sorrentino.

Milan's efforts finally paid off in the 81st minute.

Borriello connected with Pirlo's cross and his header rebounded off the crossbar and into the path of Nesta, who nodded the ball into the back of the net.

At the other end, Dida made a crucial save to clear substitute Pablo Granoche's close-range header from Pellissier's cross.

The Rossoneri poured forward in search of the winner and Sorrentino did well to save substitute Filippo Inzaghi's strike from inside the area.

But there was little Sorrentino could do to deny Nesta shortly after.

Nesta met Pirlo's corner into the six-yard box and nodded past Sorrentino to silence the home fans at the Bentegodi stadium and the Rossoneri held on for their fourth league victory of the campaign.

Liverpool 2 - 0 Manchester United

Sun, 25 Oct 2009 13:32:41 -0500

The big match of the day in the Premier League is now the 178 th meeting between Liverpool and Manchester United, divided by 34 miles but only by a fierce rivalry, the scenery is wonderful and fantastic of Anfield Road.

The atmosphere is one that puts the chills, listen to 'You Never Walk Alone' sung by 40,000 supporters with scarves displayed to the sky is a unique moment, something between the mystical and epic, which also stops at the 22 the field, the referee gives the start signal until it finishes the song ....

Benitez, a veteran of 4 straight defeats, it is a serious risk to the bench, the two American owners never miss a chance to tease him, just a great game seems to be able to retain it in its place.

Ferguson on the other side, ride safely in the top of the Premier, with the Red Devils, beaten only by Burnley in the second league, but they must win to risuperare of Ancelotti, Chelsea, temporarily in command after 5 to 0 yesterday with the Blackburn Rovers.

Benitez deploys his own with Reina in goal, defense 4 with Insua, Carragher, Johnson and Agger, midfield Lucas, Mascherano, Fabio Aurelio and Benayoun (90 ° Skrtel), in attack Kuyt and Torres (81 ° N ' Gogh).

Sir Alex Ferguson responds by deploying with the United Vandersar in goal, defense O'Shea, Ferdinand, Vidic and Evra, Giggs in midfield, Carrick, Scholes (from 74 ° Nani) and Valencia forward Berbatov (from 74 ° Owen) and Rooney.

Urged by the heat of their splendid public the Reds seek to seize the midfield host and take over command of operations, against visitors if they are cautious, careful not to discover and more than ready to share at full strength as soon as you submit the 'opportunity.

The rhythms are dizzying, the ardor physical and the charge are typical of competitive football across the Channel, unknown in our latitudes.

The first emotion gives it to 15° Fabio Aurelio's free-kick from the edge that crosses the barrier but is Vandersar, almost miraculously, to reject and remove the ball from underneath the intersection of the poles, and able to walk then to reject the attempt to tup - in of Kuyt.

Manchester seems a bit 'tied too closely to maintain deliveries to discover not dangerously hurt, even two minutes later is caught off guard by a fast-start the Reds with Fabio Aurelio Kuyt used only in area but the Dutchman is wrapped and pulled to the side.

Finally arrives at the 20th the first offensive action of note reviews of Valencia arriving at the bottom and center for the head of Rooney, but the shot is weak and Reina check without problems.

After the initial enthusiasm and the momentum seems to calm down Liverpool, guests are able to better control the transactions and to keep opponents away from their area, rather than 33 ° is precisely the United shouting penalty for action on Carragher to scissor Carrick, the referee let it pass.

The last time the weather is still not for the reds that are close to the 38th goal on the development of an incursion of Benayoun who arrived almost at the bottom, put in the center for Fabio Aurelio which impacts the head, you still find Vandersar ready and grounded.

The second half began with less frenzied pace, it seems that the rule tactics and careful ordered closed by Ferguson, finally produces its effects, making it unproductive attempts at forcing the men to Benitez.

But, as often happens, like a bolt from the blue, comes, suddenly, at 64 ° advantage of Liverpool, Kuyt gets the ball in the midline, and sees Torres advances beyond the line, hesitated for a moment and then serves the Spaniard, who returned from the Off side, the blond is on towards the area, resists the return of Ferdinand fouls, and explodes a terrific right from bottom to top that slips under the crossbar leaving to escape Vandersar and making literally explode with enthusiasm Anfield.

United's reaction time to materialize, Ferguson puts Nani and Owen, trying to change men and schemes, but the Red Devils do not appear in one of their better days, are unwieldy and struggling to evade the pressing tall, aggressive and suffocating demons of masters home.

Striking at 71 °, the development of a corner, the error of Lucas that only the height of the disk, wasting calcium Kop.

The first serious attempt towards the door to 76 ° Reina is a shot of Nani, released from an intervention vacuum Lucas, not that much careful Reina.

The match-fought, the battles are hard and all-male, hard to get in front of goal, he tries 84th Valencia, freed by Owen, the attacker controls, and from off center, it explodes a terrifying trip that exceeds Reina but it is scornfully rejected by the crossbar.

The finish is a seamless boarding, badminton shots that lead to exspulsion banned for two yellow cards before Vidic, the third sent off against Liverpool, then covered up to the second red against United.

At 95 ° on the last restart Kuyt receives and distributes the ball to Lucas that spreads quickly to N'Gog which controls, is flying into the area and placing the ball Vandersar the edge of the pile for a goal of 'apoteosi'.

Stays for the running of a Manchester appeared not entirely convincing, too passive and not proactive, come to gamble in Liverpool 'Italian', in fact devoid of the personality and the boldness that always are the most effective weapons.

By contrast Liverpool playing with a heart by putting on the field all its best qualities, expressing character, determination, grit, dedication and desire to win, and finally coming to a deserved victory which is a major shot in the arm for Benitez and the whole environment, revitalizing the ambitions of the title.

The best: in Liverpool Torres and Fabio Aurelio, Rooney and Valencia for Manchester United.
