Samuel Eto’o interviewed after Inter Milan destroyed the Bundesliga’s Wermen Bremen in Champions League play 4-0 Wednesday.

On match day two of the Champions League, Milan played out a nil-all draw with Ajax in Holland. It may only have been a draw but in the Champions League a draw away from home is a positive result. This is no different for Milan especially considering how historically the Amsterdam Arena has not been a happy hunting ground for the Rossoneri. It was an important result in the end for Milan. But what was also important was that this [...]

An injury-time goal from Mirko Vucinic gave Roma a 1-0 win at home to Serie A leaders Inter Milan. The Vucinic goal also snaps the capital club’s rotten run of late, with a first win of the 2010-2011 season after 5 matches. Young Jeremy Menez played an excellent match for the home side as Roma with late substitutions of Mirko Vucinic (for Totti), Matteo Brighi (for Menez), and Julio Baptista (for Borriello) making all the difference. On the opposite side [...]

This game could be summed up with one question: Will this be the turning point for Roma? I had faith that the team would get things back on track, and that it was just a matter of time. They have good players and a good manager, I just could not believe that this non-winning was going to last. With Bogdan Lubont in for Julio Sergio, and Daniele De Rossi back from injury, as the match progressed, question marks remained. General [...]

This fixture last year was perhaps coach Leonardo’s finest moment for Milan with a confident 5-2 victory. Today Allegri hoped for something similar to get Milan on the right path. Genoa spent big in the summer on the likes of Miguel Veloso and Luca Toni. Both teams starting with 4-3-3, Robinho making his first start with Boateng returning to the midfield alongside the old guard of Gattuso and Pirlo. Genoa hoped that palacios would be able to get behind Antonini [...]

After a shaky start for all of Serie A’s big teams, results are starting to take a more expected course after the midweek fourth round of matches. Roma, however, are the exception. Claudio Ranieri, who usually epitomise calmness, launched a tirade at the media earlier in the week after they questioned his managerial ability following Roma’s poor start to the season. Unfortunately, this wouldn’t signal the end of their bad form. Roma, without the injured Francesco Totti and Daniele De [...]
