Serie A Weekend Round-up- Giornata 10
Atalanta-Milan 2-0:
Major refereeing errors cost Milan the result here. A clear foul on Daniele Bonera in the box was ignored by referee Pieri (who is probably one of, if not the worst in Serie A). Then ex-Inter striker Nicola Ventola scored on a bullet of a volley to put Atalanta ahead 1-0. Another bad call by Pieri- the ball was put into the box by Gilardino, Donati came near Gourcuff and kicked the ball into his own net, but instead of letting the play finish, Pieri called a penalty, and then was convinced by his linesman to change his decision and yellow card Gourcuff. If he was refereeing right Milan would have been awarded a goal because he should've let the play finish, and it finished with the ball in the Atalanta net. Soncin added another for Atalanta in the last minutes to give them their first victory over Milan in 22 years.
Chievo-Cagliari 0-0:
Wasted chances by both sides earned them both a precious point in the fight for survival.
Empoli-Lazio 1-1:
A scorching volley by Igli Vannucchi in the 87th minute prevented Lazio from gaining an away victory.
Inter-Ascoli 2-0:
No suprises here. At home at the San Siro Inter got a goal from captain Javier Zanetti (who hasn't scored in 4 years), and a second from an own goal by Cudini after Luis Figo layed it across the box. Inter still leads the table.
Livorno-Udinese 1-0:
A nice goal from Bakayoko gave Livorno a 1-0 home victory. Antonio Di Natale was sent off for Udinese after kicking out at an opponent.
Palermo-Sampdoria 2-0:
Palermo keep chugging along and getting results and they are still joint leaders with Inter. A free kick from captain Eugenio Corini gave them the lead, and an insurance goal from World Cup winning defender Christian Zaccardo gave them the 2-0 victory.
Reggina-Catania 1-0:
Catania striker Giorgio Corona stole the victory with a goal near the end. Reggina had many chances to score but Catania keeper Pantanelli was on top form.
Roma-Fiorentina 3-1:
After falling 1-0 down when Czech defender Tomas Ujfalusi put the Florentine side ahead, Roma got the equalizer from a long range bomb by Daniele De Rossi going into the half. At the start of the second half Roma played beautiful soccer, knocking the ball around and creating many chances. They got 2 goals from Brazilian winger Rodrigo Taddei to seal the 3-1 victory.
Siena-Parma 2-2:
Parma blew a 2-0 lead against Siena away. Siena got 2 goals from Albanian striker Ergon Bogdani (one in stoppage time) to get a point.
Torino-Messina 1-1:
Torino continues to just draw. After falling 1-0 down, Torino striker Roberto Stellone grabbed the tying goal on a nicely angled volley.
The Serie A table sees Inter and Palermo on top with 24 points, followed by Roma on 20, then a three way tie for 4th place- Livorno, Atalanta, and Siena all with 16, and then Udinese 13, Messina 13, Catania 13, Empoli 12, Cagliari 10, Sampdoria 10, Lazio 9, Torino 8, Parma 8, Milan 7, Ascoli 4, Chievo 3, Fiorentina 0, Reggina -3
Messina striker Christian Rigano' still leads the scoring chart with 7 goals
Sack Watch- Stefano Pioli of Parma and Attilio Tesser of Ascoli are on thin ice
