Serie A: Milan overwhelms Rome, Napoli equal at Juve

Milan in an emergency overwhelms Roma with merit and goes to -1 from Inter who must recover the match against Bologna. Napoli decimated by injuries, absences from the Africa Cup and positivity is equal at Juve’s home. The covid heavily marks the restart of the championship: Serie A is played at 60% and the prospects are rather bleak. La Befana gives the coal of 220 thousand infections and the League Council decides to have the matches played if there are 13 players available, in precarious balance between the protection of the players’ health and the difficulty in finding dates to recover suspended matches . In the six games played, Milan takes the measures of Roma: three goals and three poles make the difference and Mourinho perhaps thinks with nostalgia, leaving Meazza, at the time of Inter’s treble. Milan confirms themselves as the only alternative to Inter in the Scudetto race, Roma (who will face Juve without Mancini and Karsdorp disqualified) will struggle to rejoin the Champions race. Like Lazio, who are saved by a brace from Milinkovic-Savic against an excellent Empoli. In the postponement, Napoli decides to field Zielinski, Lobotka and Rrahmani challenging the quarantine ban of the ASL (now risks fines, not sporting measures) and draws with Juve 1-1 after taking the lead with Mertens. In key salvation robust step forward of Cagliari who wins at Sampdoria and bypasses Genoa which draws with Sassuolo. At hand is now the Spezia of the shaky Thiago Motta who is overwhelmed by a Verona in full covid emergency.

Milan have a certain ease with Roma. In 7 ‘penalty converted by Giroud and Ibanez’s suicidal back pass that provides Giroud’s post and Messias’ goal. Abraham brings Roma back into play, which in the second half tries everything out. But the expulsion of Karsdorp marks the game: Leao on the counterattack, on an assist from Ibra, fixes the 3-1. Then Ibra missed a penalty and Mancini left Roma in nine. Milan, despite an emergency, is on another level. The chronicle

In Turin, Juve recaptures a Napoli dragged by Insigne, fresh from signing with Toronto and appeared not at all intimidated by the risk of home disputes. Away from home, the striker inspires, Mertens scores and leads the Neapolitans, led by Domenichini because Spalletti also has Covid. In the second half, a draw by the Church and a Juventus attack without any results. Napoli complains about a contact in the De Ligt-Di Lorenzo area, not sanctioned by the referee. That of Naples is proof of character, but in any case AC Milan escapes to +5 Between Lazio and Empoli it is a pyrotechnic equal that confirms the quality, especially away, of the Tuscans, the defensive fragility of the Romans, but also the ability to react . Not enough for now to reach the Champions League zone.

Start of shock for the Lazio players, down by two goals in 8 ‘. Immobile shortens but for an hour the Romans banged against the equipped Empoli fort. Then Milinkovic-Savic enters the scene for a well-deserved draw, but the Lazio defense (Acerbi comes out amid the whistles of a now hostile audience) gets pierced by Di Francesco. A goal by Patric is canceled at Lazio, Immobile misses a penalty well saved by Vicario. But still the Serbian saves Sarri, who sees the witches against his former team. Great show but Lazio starts the year badly.

The fight for salvation becomes incandescent thanks to the victory of Cagliari which ruins Marco Lanna’s first match as president. Sampdoria succumbs by interrupting a series of three positive matches. For the Sardinians it is the second victory of the season, both against the Ligurians. An encouragement for the long road that awaits Mazzarri to hope for salvation. The Dorians took the lead with Gabbiadini’s sixth consecutive goal, but in the second half Cagliari had more breath and bite: equal from Deiola and winning goal from Pavoletti. Sheva heals from the covid and leads Genoa on the bench to conquer a precious point at the home of the usual wasteful Sassuolo. The Ligurians immediately took the lead with a spell from Mattia Destro and then placed themselves in defense to contain the gusts of the hosts, who were not particularly inspired. Scamacca is missing, but Lopes directs operations with dexterity and forward Defrel and Berardi have various possibilities. The captain finds the right opening for the equalizer then climbs into the Sirigu chair and the guests bring home a point that weighs. La Spezia is always in the sights of Genoa and Cagliari. The victory in Naples has deluded the fans who wake up with the knockout with Verona which makes Thiago Motta’s bench shaky again. It is a match marked by absentees for covid: 8 to 4 for Verona which, however, as the coach Tudor admits, has half a squad, but with all the most reliable players. It is the show of Gianluca Caprari, a player who has become the protagonist after many years of honest militancy in Serie A. Caprari takes the Venetians ahead with a nice conclusion, doubles his head and knocks out the Ligurians, who try to get back in the race with Erlic, but it’s too late. Verona celebrates its thousandth match in Serie A, catches a cross with Lazovic, but in the end the Ligurians also lose for the next match Agudelo for a direct red. Pesera ‘because the next match is the salvation challenge against Genoa.
