Day characterized by draws; only Lecce and Lazio get the three points
Thirty-second day under the banner of the x sign; in fact, seven games out of 9 end in a draw and even Udinese-Roma, interrupted in the 71st minute due to the illness suffered by Giallorossi defender Ndicka, was currently at 1-1. Only Lecce won against Empoli and Lazio against Salernitana, thus gaining significant points for their respective objectives. The Salento team dealt a heavy blow to the Tuscans’ hopes of survival as they remained in the reddest zone of the rankings. For Tudor’s men, however, the next matches will clarify whether the success against the derelict Campania team will be useful in hooking up at least one of the last carriages of the “Europe train”.
Cagliari and Verona gain golden points towards salvation; Juventus still disappointing
Important steps also for Cagliari and Verona who, with the same score (2-2) emerged unscathed from the Nerazzurri’s gauntlet of Atalanta and Inter. However, the Mole derby was disappointing and rewarded Torino more than Juventus who evidently have not yet emerged from the tunnel that has been enveloping them for a few months. Napoli also did poorly, unable to exploit their opponents’ errors; a nice breath of fresh air for Frosinone even if the standings remain very complicated.
Bologna takes a breather, Milan thinks about Roma
In the Champions League area, Bologna appears to be in trouble as they fail to overcome a good Monza, while Milan comeback in Reggio Emilia against Sassuolo, perhaps revealing an excessive distraction from their European commitment. It ends in a draw and a draw also in Florence between two teams who try to win through play but end up canceling each other out.
Now pay attention again to the cups, with Atalanta, Fiorentina and one of the favorites Roma and Milan, ready to continue their journey and give Italy an extra place in the top European competition.
