The Serie A is in flux this season, and in addition to Napoli sitting at the top of the table with the title on the line, the capital city duo of Lazio and Roma have also risen strongly. In the early hours of Sunday morning (9), both teams won, respectively, in the 2nd and 3rd place of the table, the hope of qualifying for the next UEFA Europa League becomes clearer and clearer. In contrast, the traditional trio of Juventus and Milan Duo failed to score in this round, and the scenery is no longer beautiful.
Roma made it two wins in a row with an eighth-minute penalty from Paulo Dibana to beat Trana 1-0 on the road and climb to third place in the standings, two points ahead of fifth-place Inter Milan. Roma was a weak division for many years, but since Molenu took over two years ago, the results have steadily improved, won the UEFA Champions League last season, and this season has already advanced to the last 8 of the UEFA Cup, and will be on the road to challenge Fei Yanuo in the early hours of Friday (14th). Moleno's biggest wish is to help the team return to the UEFA Europa League, and now they are one step closer to their goal.
Lazio, on the other hand, beat Juventus 2-1 at home thanks to goals from Milan Govic-Savic and Saccarini, making it three wins in a row and currently sitting in 2nd place in the table. Despite being 16 points behind Napoli, they are 7 points ahead of 5th place Inter Milan, and their place in the top four for next season's UEFA Europa League looks assured.
It is worth mentioning that Lazio winger Saccarini, who contributed one assist and one goal, has scored 10 goals in Serie A this season, making him the only local Italian player with double-digit goals in the league. Italian national team boss Ventura should perhaps reconsider recalling the 27-year-old powerful striker.
