(SP)ITALY-TURIN-SERIE A-JUVENTUS VS CROTONE : News Photo

Congratulations to Juventus. The 2016/17 Italian Serie A winners.

We did not expect Crotone to spoil the party, and they didn’t. Juventus Stadium was ready to celebrate the title, and nothing could stop them on this day.  We knew by the half-time break that the confetti was going to be used.

Juventus picked up a record sixth consecutive Serie A title. 

 

Udinese        1-1       Sampdoria

Cyril Thereau 5’                        Luis Muriel 64’

Sampdoria keeps the two point gap between the two sides in the league standings.

There was enough open areas on the pitch for the two sides to create attacking play and deliver more goals than they did in this match. Three players were sent off by the 65th-minute, two on the home team and the goalscorer for the away side.  

 

Genoa          2-1         Torino

Luca Rigoni 32’                           Adem Ljajic 89’

Pescara             2-0        Palermo

Robert Muric 15′                          
Alexandru Mitrita 87′

 It might not mean a lot to their season but Pescara got a victory in their final home match of the season.  

‘These two relegated teams went against each other for one last time in the top flight. Hopefully, they will both make a quick return to play more Serie A matches against each other.
