The Italian Serie A game between Roma and Napoli tonight was undoubtedly the strongest league game of the week in Italy  but unfortunately it was marred by bad decisions from the Napoli players who were red carded in the game. It was after Matteo Politano received the first red card the game in the 66th minute that Roma  started to pressure for a goal which they finally got in the 76th when Lorenzo Pellegrini found the back of the net.
Victor Osimhen after been booked should've played with more carefulness to avoid a second booking but that he failed to do as he was sent off later. Roma will definitely be happy with the outcome of the game as they've taken all three points from the game .

Inter Milan is one of the teams that is quite strong this season because this week they recorded another victory against Lecce which made Inter Milan even stronger at the top of the standings. If you look at other teams which are actually big teams, such as Juventus and AC Milan, it seems like these two teams will find it quite difficult to hinder Inter Milan performance in Serie A this season. This season Inter Milan squad is stronger compared to other teams, even Inter Milan defense is quite strong so far because they have only conceded 7 goals.

This week, Simone Inzaghi team performed quite well when playing at Sansiro. They appeared confident from the first half, making their opponents unable to properly control the progress of this match. The opening goal was scored by Bisseck and Barella scored the second goal which made Milan win this match with a score of 2-0. Juventus will not be able to return to leading the standings because Simone Inzaghi will continue to try to bring Inter Milan to victory in every match.

As I said above it was because of the red card.Before they got the red card they had their chances and they could have also have won the game if they were just a bit more pragmatic.Napoli is different this year from the last season,they entered to win again but they saw that many other teams are really strong this year and in my opinion no matter how great the other teams are the Serie A will be won either by Inter which has the majority of the chances to do so or Juventus as the second strongest contender to the title.
The beautiful surprise from this year is absolutely Bologna which is finding themselves in a Champions League spot,hopefully they stay there until the end of Serie A.

DISASTER FOR NAPOLI.
They were supposed to be the potential winners of this season.
Now they are risking to not qualify on the CL

Napoli
Roma 2 - 0 Napoli.
That match was a disaster for Napoli. They did not only lose three points but they also lost the service of Osimhen and Politano for at least the next round if not more for Politano since his red card was just unnecessary.
Playing by one less player is hard, imagine losing two at some point. Even the probability of getting a draw will drop significantly after the second red card for Osimhen by losing a main player and at the same time their striker and also by playing with only 9 players. Roma profited from that at best and added another goal in the extra time. Poor Napoli

Inter and Juventus made the gap bigger by the end of this round and after the defeat of Ac Milan mainly. Bologna and Fiorentina are getting closer to Ac Milan with only 2-3 points gap.

Kenan's last name is Yildiz. Yildiz means Star in English. We can call him Kenan Star.

He scored a great goal in Turkey's friendly match against Germany. He is a really talented footballer. Juventus made a very important investment for the future by signing him. He is only 18 years old.

Jose Mourinho has a poor squad and I don't know if they still park too much of the bus! He should upgrade how he plays and the players he brings into the squad. Congratulations tonight to em, they would definitely take three points right in front of the home fans watching and cheering them tonight. Jose Mourinho lacks good set of players, this is the reason why qualifications for the Champions League next season seem difficult.

This is yet another failed tactics of Walter Mazzari. He dropped a full set of players in the game during the loss against Frosinone. I knew that he was still gonna lose tonight after failing to secure a spot in the next round of the Copa Italia.

For the title race to be a viable contender they would have to improve so much that I don't think that is possible. Inter Milan continues winning and to diminish the gap AC Milan would have to win like at least 10 games in a row hoping for Inter Milan to lose games or have some draws. While the latter is possible, I think it is close to impossible that AC Milan would not be able to pull off such an extraordinary winning streak.

For some reason, the performance of the two clubs, both Roma and Napoli, was nothing too special. Even now, the results are really disappointing because Napoli are trailing Roma 1 - 0. Moreover, once again, Napoli only played with 9 players because Politano and Osimhen received red cards. This is the end of Napoli. They will definitely lose this match. And so will the next match without Osimhen. What a disappointment. It will be even more difficult for them to compete in Serie A

Yeah Roma has scored already I know that Mourinho cannot afford to lose this match as when he's playing a strong side that's when he brings out all his coaching skills, Lorenzo Pellegrini scored in the 76th minutes and he was assisted by Stephan El Shaarawy, it was indeed a lovely goal and i think it may just decide the outcome of the match.

Dusan Vlahovic scored the goal in minute 81', it was still in normal time. So, I think the match isn't likely to end in a draw result. We can assume it almost ended in a draw if Dusan Vlahovic scored in injury time.  

I think Juventus will win easily against Frosinone because Juventus looks in a good condition. Frosinone is a small team and their performance looked not very convincingly. However, Frosinone can give a serious challenge for Juventus, it is a bit surprising for me.

Yes, Inter Milan won the match, they got full points. The point gap returned to 4 points. It is interesting that the point gap isn't so large and both teams showed consistent performance. So, we can assume that the competition between Juventus and Inter Milan will continue until the end of the season. I really expect that Inter Milan won't lead with a bigger point gap.

Juventus played away from home to Frosinone. Even though they got the first lead, it seemed like there was going to be loopholes when Frosinone equalized. Juventus later scored two more goals but one got cancelled. In the end they took the 3points with just 1goal margin.They were predicted to be the victors based on their capacity of being the better side. They're at the top spot and Frosinone isn't comparable to them in terms of performances and positions in the standings.

 I won't say it was a confident win for Juventus but they've just got extra work to do as a team. They need to up their game, there's still ample of time left, couples with the fact that they e not got much struggles owing to their absence from the European tournaments. They ought to be a better side in the Serie A. They should cover up their tracks in the second half of the season and earn a ticket to next season's European contests.

This is one of the most boring games I have watched in the Serie A this season. Mourinho is using his usual game plan and Napoli are just way worse than I expected. I would have expected Napoli to be much more active than this in the attacking line. As Politano got a red card as well I just expect Napoli to try to preserve the 0-0 score to the end.

Roma have performed really poorly until this minute. They just can't find the target. The fans must have really missed Dybala already. Because if he was in Belotti's place now there would have been a good cooperation between Lukaku and him to score a goal.

While I was making the post Roma just scored.    Pellegrini is the scorer and this can really be the winning goal as well!

Roma has the better chances now in the last quarter of the game as the team of Napoli got booked with a red card.Now Roma should take full advantage from this fact and the fact that they are playing in their home stadium which should be enough for them to get a bigger boost to try and win this game which so far is goalless.

Of course Napoli is not the team of the last year this year but they have recovered greatly in these last games of the Serie A so they are a very strong and serious contender for any team,even if it finishes 0-0 it would not be a surprise result at all despite Napoli being with 10 men.

No club will be happily engaged for a draw tie against their opponents, everyone keeps all hope alive and targets for the bigger points to be earn this season, afterall its not yet mid-season and every club have this hope of bouncing back to formidable shape. Finishing the season in the top four would be a big challenge for Napoli and AS Roma, but I'm sure one of these clubs will scale through. AS Roma vs Napoli match is ongoing, still 0-0 and no difference from bothsides. Making no difference with Napoli in the second half. Both clubs are preparing tactical balance to ensure things fall in place for them.

As for me, I don't expect Juventus to win the game with many goals because, right from the beginning of this season, they have not been winning with many goals, so even today I did expect many goals from them, and that is even the reason why I bet on them to win the game, but the goals that will be scored in the match for both teams should be less than four goals, but I never thought that Frosinone would be able to a goals against Juventus.

Inter Milan have done with today's match, and they have won the game with 2 goals, and that was what I was expecting from them because their opponent was not that strong. I expected Inter Milan to have won the match with many goals because it was Inter Milan's home game.

The match have started, the both teams are putting in their utmost effort. Right now, Napoli seems to be in charge of the game, a common occurrence when Roma faces formidable opponents. This is part of their strategic play opting for a defensive approach coupled with swift counterattacks. Despite Napoli currently dominating the field, I'm hesitant to declare them the favored team to win. The match is only in the first half, and the unpredictable nature of soccer means anything can happen. Let's eagerly wait and watch to see how the game unfolds in the second half!

If we refer to the goals that both teams had pre-season I think yes, they are currently struggling badly without a doubt. But if they adjust their goals and Napoli wants to finish the season decently, I think that is still within the realm of possibility. A win today would of course be very conducive to that goal. But it is the stubborn match that I expected from Roma and that makes it never easy to score goals against them. As we know Roma, they have less ball possession but somehow find their way to shoot more often.

I mean they did had a few bad games that's true, but they are not "that" further away from the top two, I think Juventus and Inter are doing fine and that should not be a big deal for anyone, it's expected. This season it could be Inter, next season it could be Milan, another season Juventus. You do not have clear understanding which one will do better, you just assume that it would be as good as it gets and if you are right then you will be fine, and if you are wrong then you will pick the wrong team.

Juvnetus does alright this season too, so I am not sure if Inter will be the one that will win, doesn't mean they won't, it just means it won't be all that easy, either could win the title and I wouldn't be surprised about it at all.

Both of these teams are currently struggling badly and having things not ideal which is the problem even Roma is giving better but still they are currently at the eight spot and Napoli which is having change of coach still not able to perform as defending champion and now losing chance for the staying at the top ranks.

Roma is missing their few star players, and they are still having quality but not as they needed if we have won for the home team surely this could be good but still not enough for going into good zone Napoli is surely in deep trouble after having new coach which is not able to bring any positive sign for them most chances we will have good and entertaining match with I am having feeling Roma will be ended as winner, but draw could be also good for the both sides.

AC Milan would have been seen as a potential contender for the title but I don't know if playing I'm the UCL at some point distracted them and they were unable to combine the pressure from both the UCL and serie A well enough to maintain a certain pase in the serie A so as to get a good spot on the league table but then they can still make it to top four.

Inter Milan too is playing in the champions league and still doing great with the serie A so much that they have the potential of winning the league title along side Juventus as a contender too, I was seeing Juventus as favourite especially when they went from struggling to climbing to the top of the table so fast and inter Milan has still been within top four so I still think Juventus has got a very much great potential but inter Milan has got a better consistency than Juventus do in their performance and results.
