TOUR EVENT
Palermo left the Champions League zone. Francesco Gvidolin, still a mentor of Palermo, kept his pre-match promise to spoil the blood of Inter. The win-win melancholy of the Sicilians promised to finally be interrupted - the teams left for a break with a score of 2-0 in favor of Rosanero. However, the Milanese were not inclined to suffer the first defeat of the season and reduced the match to a draw. Such an outcome finally threw Palermo out of the leading quartet, and at the same time filled the upcoming Inter match with Roma with special meaning. In case of victory, the Nerazzurri will officially formalize the conquest of the Scudetto on Wednesday.
HERO TOUR
Francesco Totti Having scored two goals and assisted in the game with Sampdoria, the captain of Roma brought a personal apology to the family of Tifosi for the mediocre embarrassment in Manchester. In addition, making a double, Francesco also coolly pulled away from his pursuers in a sniper race. The closest competitors are now 4 goals behind. It remains to wait until Totti begins to demonstrate something similar outside the Apennine Peninsula.
TOUR FAILURE
Walter Novellino. The Sampdoria coach was out of luck. In any other situation, a well-knocked-down team from Genoa would surely have offered “jallorossi” tolerable resistance. However, the Romans, terribly wounded by their own powerlessness at Old Trafford, set about restoring the shaky reputation. The quintessence of their emotional outburst is the rout of the innocent Sampdoria. Four accurate shots on goal “blyukerkati” slightly softened the Romans pain painful beating champion. Novellino only sympathize - it is always unpleasant to fall under a hot hand.
TOUR SENSATION
The hopeless outsider Ascoli continues to snap and spoil the favorites. In the 27th round, the wards of Nedo Sonetti deprived Roma of points (1: 1), then they tortured Inter a lot (1: 2), and now they also interrupted the 8-match winning streak of Lazio (2: 2). The Romans could repeat the club record for the number of wins in a row. So the slip in Ascoli Piceno is doubly unpleasant for them. Moreover, if Jimenez had not come on as a substitute, the unbeaten Lazio series could have ended - an accurate shot by the Chilean in the 84th minute extended it to 14 matches.
TREND
The situation in the danger zone is not clarified. At the finish of the season, the layout in the underground tables attract more and more attention. “Ascoli” and “Messine”, apparently, no longer be saved. So the intrigue is different: who will share their sad fate? There are three applicants: Chievo, Regina, and Parma. Calabrians and Parmesans were content with draws, and the Veronians lost completely. Without drastically changing their position, potential departures pressed closer to each other on the edge of the abyss. However, mutual courtesies will not last long - a maximum until May 27, and then someone still has to crash down.
CM. ALSO
Roma footballers, led by the inimitable Francesco Totti, have sincerely apologized to their native public for the fiasco in Manchester. It seems that Stadio Olimpico accepted them.
TOUR DIGIT
Eight starting minutes were enough for Atalanta to score two goals and actually provide three points in the away match against Torino. A victory with such an impressive rate of fire strengthened the chances of the Bergamo team to pour into the UEFA zone. A ticket to the Euro Tournament will be a worthy justification for the advances given to the young coach Stefano Colantuono. He has already succeeded in depriving Atalanta of the reputation of the elevator team.
