The 14th matchday of Serie A brought plenty of surprises. Lazio fell to Parma in a frustrating match for the Biancocelesti, featuring a disallowed goal, a penalty awarded and then revoked by VAR, along with too many distractions that ultimately cost Baroni’s team. For Parma, these three points are crucial for their fight against relegation.
Juventus also stumbled, conceding a late equalizer to Lecce from a goal by Rebic. Motta continues to be the enigmatic Mister X, although his side’s challenges are compounded by several absences, particularly in attack.
The highly anticipated Sunday match between Fiorentina and Inter was suspended in the 17th minute of the first half due to a medical emergency involving young player Bove, causing great alarm among players and fans alike. On a positive note, Milan secured a comfortable 3-0 victory over Empoli on Saturday afternoon, reigniting their hopes of catching up in the title race.
Tonight features another marquee match as Roma hosts Atalanta. The Bergamaschi are in excellent form, arriving at the Olimpico with five consecutive league victories and an equally impressive run in the Coppa. Roma, fresh off a prestigious draw against Tottenham in the Europa League, played very well and hopes to build on the signs of revival seen in the cup for their league campaign.
