Juventus is beginning to repeat their earlier accomplishments and none from Roma, Inter, Napoli, Milan or Fiorentina seem to keep up the same pace. This is already the first fixture where Juventus easily gain 3 points while none of the followers go over a draw. Despite the Bianconeri's commitments in the Uefa Champions League, Conte's men seem to me the reactive side in the Serie A league. Two goals from Tevez and Llorente ease Juve to victory away to Livorno; Milan continue their poor run at San Siro. Kakà scored an early 3rd minute goal bringing the rossoneri fans on their feet. The glory vanished just after 8 minutes after Alberto Gilardino brought Genova level. Mario Balotelli gets his opportunity for coming out of the shadows when Milan are given a penalty leaving Genova in 10. This is but a reflection of what the Italian striker is passing. After never failing to convert a penalty, this is Balotelli's second penalty failed in a row as the score remains 1-1 at the final whishtle. Napoli suffered a surprising defeat at home against a brave Parma with a massive performance from Antonio Cassano. The talent from Bari scored from a lovely individual effort while Parma played an outstanding tactical game to give Napoli little opportunities to convert. A bitter 1-0 defeat at home gives Inter Milan a possibility to skip to 3rd spot.
The nerazzurri faced a tough challenge against Bologna, surprisingly struggling for relegation this season. Ideas were strong as the Inter players were looking for a win playing the ball along the flanks looking for an early breakthrough. Unfortunately, Mazzarri's side conceded a goal with a ball lost in midfield.
Bologna opened the scorings with Panagiotis Kone's surgical finish. After several attempts, Brazilian winger Jonathan put the score level again with a lucky deflection off the Rossoblu defender Sorensen. Till the dying minutes of the game two occasions saw the ball hitting the upright for Inter but it was not enough to get a win.
