Cagliari, who are
incredibly onto their third coach this season, fell behind on the half hour to a fantastic shot. From a corner D'Agostino swung the ball towards the edge of the box where Donati met it with a thunderous volley which floored a defender on the line on it's way into the back of the net. Suazo equalised with a magnificent solo effort. With his back to play on the half way line as he received a pass he flicked the ball wide of his marker, surged up filed and beat three players, and threw in a dummy for good measure, before drilling the ball low into the corner. Every bit as good as Kaka's 2nd goal against Fenerbahce. Attendance : 10,000 Assists : D'Agostino (ck), Langella |

FIORENTINA | 4-2 |
UDINESE |
Fiore 38 |
Muntari 28 |
|
Toni 43, 86 |
Iaquinta 91 (Pen) |
|
Donadel 79 | ||
Fiorentina went behind
against the run of play. Under pressure from Iaquinta Ujfalusi couldn't get enough on his clearance, the ball bounced twice in front of Muntari and for the second week in a row he thumped a half volley into the net. This kid is really special (he's just turned 21). Fiore equalised with a low shot after Toni held up a cross. Toni got a lucky break as he fouled Zenoni when the defender tried to clear Jorgensen's back heel, then let rip with a violent shot into the roof of the net. Udinese came out strong in the second half. Di Michele, back from injury, forced Frey into a great save then Iaquinta had a goal ruled out for no reason whatsoever. Donadel, Italy's U21 captain, put Fiorentina further in front with a brilliant free kick which bent around the inside of De Sanctis' post. Toni found the bottom of the net from a tight angle and Iaquinta grabbed himself a consolation goal in injury time. Just an awesome match. I expect Lippi will take both Toni and Iaquinta to Germany next year. They are the best two big men in the game. Attendance : 35,000 Assists : n/a, Toni, Jorgensen, Jorgensen (won fk), Bojinov, Barretto (won pen) |

JUVENTUS | 2-1 |
ASCOLI |
Del Piero 13 (pen), 39 (fk) |
Kovac 31 (og) |
|
Believe it or not Ascoli
had two great chances, thanks to some surprisingly poor defending, to take the lead before Juve were given an absolute gift of a penalty for handball. Ascoli however didn't crumble and were rewarded for pushing forward when Carillo beat Abbiati with a speculative shot via a deflection off Kovac. Del Piero restored Juve's lead with a free kick. Juve created plenty of chances in the second half but couldn't be bothered to take them. Ascoli also had their moments in what was a very plucky display. Attendance : 27,000 Assists : n/a, n/a, Ibrahimovic (won fk) |

LAZIO | 3-1 |
TREVISO |
Rocchi 20 |
Pinga 44 (fk) |
|
Pandev 26 | ||
Oddo 87 (Pen) | ||
Minutes after almost
repeating his infamous mid air volley goal for West Ham, Di Canio flicked a throw-in towards Rocchi and he used his staggering pace to fly past a defender and push the ball past Handanovic. Another brilliant pass dissected the Treviso defence and Pandev finished with aplomb, waiting for Handanovic to come off his line before rolling the ball between his legs. Despite Pingu's 44th minute free kick Treviso never looked like testing Lazio who could afford to substitute Di Canio in the second half. Rocchi dived over Handanovic to win Lazio a penalty an earn the 'keeper a red card. Oddo converted. Attendance : 20,000 Red Card : Handanovic 86 (Treviso) Assists : Di Canio, Di Canio, A Filippini (won fk), Rocchi (won pen) |

REGGINA | 1-3 |
CHIEVO |
Cozza 11 |
Franceschini 19, 64 |
|
Mandelli 76 |
||
Reggina were looking for
their first points of the season coming into this match and got off to a perfect start when Cozza tapped in Vigiani's centre. Franceschini got Chievo level after Amauri did a fine Ibrahimovic impression. He received the ball on the edge of the box with his back to play, turned, danced past two defenders and rolled the ball to the back post leaving Franceschini with a simple tap-in. He volleyed in a second from close range and Mandelli headed in the third from Semioli's free kick. Attendance : 9,200 Red Card : D'Anna 79 (Chievo) Assists : Vigiani, Amauri, Semioli, Semioli (fk) |

SAMPDORIA | 2-1 |
MILAN |
Bonazzoli 38 |
Gilardino 18 |
|
Tonetto 58 | ||
Shevchenko flicked
Pirlo's pass to Gilardino via a deflection and he calmly put the ball wide of Antonioli to open his Milan account. Gilardino, under pressure from Castellini, missed an open goal after Shevchenko chased down a longball, shook off Antonioli and centred. Shevchenko also missed what was by his standards an easy chance from Gattuso's centre. Milan's set piece defending let them down again. Castellini headed Volpi's free kick against the crossbar and Bonazzoli lashed the ball into the bottom corner. Diani stripped the ball off Kaladze with a brilliant sliding tackle and floated a cross towards the near post, Stam headed straight to Tonetto and the former Milan winger blasted the ball past Dida. Antonioli, another former Milan player, made brilliant saves from Gilardino and Vieri who also missed a sitter late on. Milan have an easy schedule in the upcoming weeks, anymore slips-ups and Ancelotti is toast. Attendance : 30,000 Assists : n/a, n/a, n/a |

Martins 25 | ||

Cruz 85 | ||
Cambiasso's lovely
through ball sent Martins in on goal and he baited Sicignano before flicking the ball into the net. Stankovic volleyed in a superb Veron pass to double Inter's advantage four minutes later. Veron was really on his game today and picked out Cruz with another peach of a pass, Cruz controlled the ball on his chest before slamming into the corner.
