Without 6 line-up players: Rubinho, Bovo, Criscito, Rossi, Paro and Sculli the team of Mr. Gasperini also lost the last match of the first season in Serie A after 12 years. This victory also brought opponent Atalanta 48 points, which makes them 9th in the standings because of the goal-difference, just before Genoa on the 10th place.

In the 32nd minute ex-Genoa player Sergio Floccari opened the score in rainy Bergamo. Just before halftime our defender Gaetano de Rosa was close to the equalizer, but Capelli saved the header on the line. In the second half both teams had chances to score but after both Danilo in the 66th and Milanetto in the 79th minute got their second yellow card Genoa only had 9 players in the field. Despite the 2 extra players it lasted till the 93rd minute till Marconi doubled the score: 2-0.

 

The players of Genoa invited a new system: all balls to Borriello. Just as last week against Empoli all Genoa-players wanted Marco Borriello to score and make him topscorer of Serie A. Yesterday Leon had a great chance to score, but in stead of scoring our enfant-terrible played the ball to Borriello who was in a worse position to score and missed. Also others often played the ball to Borriello in the penaltyarea instead of trying to score themselves. Parma’s old topscorer Cristiano Lucarelli (brother of our Alessandro) succeeded in the 58th minute to score and brought Parma an undeserved 1-0 victory. Luckily also Napoli lost against Torino, so we stay on the 8th position in the standings.

Genoa played a good match in Toscany but lost by 3-1 against Fiorentina. The Rossoblu-boys were stopped by goalkeeper Frey who played a very good match. On the other hand Fiorentina got a little help of referee Ayroldi because at the first goal of Fiorentina goalscorer Santana was in offside position so the goal should be annulated. Genoa’s goal was scored by Matias Masiero in his first match after his arrival last January from Uruguay. Well done Matias !!

Yesterday-evening 28.151 people watched Genoa-Juventus in Luigi Ferraris Stadium. Only 1.000 (!!) of them were happy at the end of the match with the 0-2 result by goals of Grygera and Trezeguet in the first half. The most succesfull team of Italy with the most supporters (??) brought only 1.000 fans to one of the closest away-matches in the first season in Serie A after the punishment. Knowing this it is easy to explain why players like Criscito prefer Genoa (football, passion and friendship) above Juventus (only money). With Genoa the Belgium player Anthony Vanden Borre made his debut 31 minutes before the end as a substitute of Milanetto that was kicked out of the match by Camoranesi. The referee refused to give Camoranesi his second yellow card, just like Cassano 3 weeks ago. Genoa is now 9th in the standings.
