Catania 1-0 Lazio
Roma 1-4 Juventus
Bologna 0-1 Cagliari
Chievo 1-0 Palermo
Inter 3-0 Reggina
Torino 1-3 Sampdoria
Genoa 2-0 Udinese
Fiorentina 1-0 Siena
Napoli 0-0 AC Milan
Lecce 2-2 Atalanta
Milan missed out on the chance to cement their third place spot after being held in Naples. In truth the Rossoneri were fortunate, as Marek Hamsik was dubiously ruled offside for a second-half goal and Napoli had much the better of the match. Carlo Ancelloti’s men continue to look far from their best without Kaka, and they now have Genoa just four points behind them after their win at Udinese thanks to goals from Giuseppe Sculli and Diego Milito’s 15th of the campaign.
Inter remain comfortably top after strolling past bottom side Reggina at the San Siro. Makeshift centre-half Esteban Cambiasso opened the scoring from Dejan Stankovic’s delightful backheel, before Zlatan Ibrahimovic stole the show as usual with a penalty and then a well-taken lob to seal the points. Reggina were woeful and sit bottom six points adrift. Juventus copped the result of the weekend with a 4-1 beating of Roma at the Olimpico. Vicenzo Iaquinta opened the scoring finishing a sublime team move, before Simone Loria equalized for the hosts. Parity did not last long, however as Iaquinta headed in his second before Olof Mellberg and Pavel Nedved completed the scoring.
Roma are now three points behind Fiorentina in 5th as a solitary Adrian Mutu goal was enough for the Viola to dispatch Tuscan rivals Siena on Sunday. Cagliari kept up their hunt for a UEFA Cup spot after a 1-0 win at Bologna while Michaele Paolucci gave Catania a well-deserved 1-0 win over Lazio, a result which dents Delio Rossi’s own European ambitions. At the bottom, Chievo continued their impressive run with a 1-0 win over Palermo at the Bentigodi – 3 wins in the last 4 for the flying donkeys now, moving them six points clear of the drop. Torino’s home defeat to Sampdoria – goals from Pazzini (his 8th in 10 games), Diana and Sammarco giving Samp their first away win in three months – means Torino remain third bottom, only ahead of Lecce on goal difference after the southerners scored a last-minute penalty to earn a perhaps fortuitous draw over Atalanta. Bologna are far from safe, two points above them.
