SAMPDORIA |
Zenoni 45 (og) |
Bonazzoli 54 |
|
Tosto 79 | ||
|
||
Samp appeared to have more possession but
paid the price for showing a distinct lack of urgency and fell behind on the stroke of half time when Tosto's speculative shot took a deflection off Zenoni wrong-footing Antonioli. The visitors were level less than ten minutes later. Two Ascoli defenders failed to pick up Bonazzoli as he turned in a deflected cross from close range. Tosto headed in the winner from Cariello's free kick. Attendance : 12,000 Assists : n/a, n/a, Cariello (fk) |

Materazzi 11 | ||
Cruz 19 | ||
Cambiasso 49 | ||
Cordoba 51 | ||
Recoba 61 | ||
The lettering of the sponsors on Inter's
shirts (Pirelli) was in Chinese. Materazzi began the rout with a volley on the turn after Veron had a shot charged down from a corner. Cruz went top of Inter's scoring charts (as Adriano watched from the stands) when he tapped in Favalli's center. Former Milan and Inter playboy Coco saw red for a foul on Ze Maria on the edge of the box. Cambiasso latched onto a clearance and hammered in the third. Cordoba threw himself at Materazzi's header to make it 4-0. Recoba barged his way through two defenders following another deflection, rode a tackle and slotted into the corner. Attendance : 50,000 Assist : n/a, Favalli, n/a, Meterazzi, n/a |

PALERMO | 2-2 |
CHIEVO |
Corini 15 (Pen) |
Amauri 18, 39 (Pen) |
|
Caracciolo 92 | ||
Palermo's lead lasted less than three
minutes. Teen sensation Obinna received the ball with his back to play, turned and beat two players on the right wing before sending a precise cross into the box which Amauri met with a spectacular diving header. Amauri shot Chievo into the lead from the penalty spot after Obbina fell under Santoni's sloppy challenge. Amauri and Pellissier wasted good chances from long balls on the break. Deep into injury time Caracciolo blasted home an equaliser after Corini's clever pass took out the Chievo defence. Keep an eye on Obinna (The African Maradona), this kid looks like a once in a decade type talent. Attendance : 27,000 Assists : Caracciolo (won pen), Obbina, Obbina (won pen), Corini |

PARMA | 1-1 |
TREVISO |
Simplicio 34 |
Fava 67 |
|
Parma were continually slinging crosses into
the box, trying to take advantage of the height of Corradi yet it was midget Simplicio who eventually connected with one to head Parma into the lead. Treviso were rewarded for their second half pressure with an equaliser from Fava. Attendance : 12,000 Assists : Pasquale, Gallo (ck) |
||
REGGINA | 2-0 |
LECCE |
Tedesco 14 | ||
Cozza 52 | ||
Tedesco latched onto a knockdown, beat two
players with an elastico then let rip from 30 yards with a shot that flew into the top corner. Lecce should have been level long before Cozza added a second. Attendance : 9,500 Assists : De Rosa, Mesto |
||
CAGLIARI | 0-2 |
MILAN |
Gilardino 25 seconds |
||
Shevchenko 28 |
||
Gilardino pounced on confusion in the
Cagliari defence to give Milan an instance lead. As Cagliari were threatening to draw level Shevchenko caught Carini by surprise with a powerful left foot shot from 25 yards. Costacurta was the stand-out defender, partnering Maldini in Nesta's absence. There was welcome news for Milan in the second half when Inzaghi and Jankulovski made their returns from injury. Attendance : 15,000 Assists : n/a, Gattuso |

SIENA | 2-3 |
UDINESE |
Chiesa 53 |
Di Michele 26, 30, 46 |
|
Bertotto 66 (og) | ||
Di Michele opened his account for the season
on the break, finishing emphatically from Mauri's pass. He tapped in a second after Mirante couldn't hold a Iaquinta's shot. In the first minute after the restart Di Michele completed his hat-trick with a sharp turn and quick finish. Chiesa began the comeback with a superb goal. Falsini fired a low cross into the box, Chiesa killed the ball instantly as he turned then shot into the corner. Bertotto turned the ball past his own 'keeper when trying to clear Bogdani's header. The games most controversial incident followed. As Obodo was on a stretcher receiving treatment and taking a sip of water several of the stretcher carriers were standing over him. One of them suddenly kicked his legs and fell to the ground clutching his face. A bemused Obodo looked on before a melee ensued between the Udinese players and the stretcher staff. Iaquinta attempted to confront the man at the centre of the farce but as he was pulled back he took another theatrical dive to the floor. Attendance : 7,500 Assists : Mauri, n/a, Muntari, Falsini, n/a |
