Inter - Empoli: 0-1
Inter was missing Vieri, Recoba, Materazzi, Cannavaro and Kily Gonzalez due to injuries. Inter was the best team and created most chances, with Empoli playing on the counter. Empoli keeper Bucci had a lot of work to do but it remained 0-0 till halftime. Inter started the second half again on the attack, in search of that first goal. Emre got booked with yellow for a foul and immediately received a second yellow card for protest. Down to 10 men for 30 minutes, Inter kept attacking and Empoli got a few times lucky while Bucci kept keeping great.
In extra time, Empoli executed a rare counter attack very well and stole the three points.
Bologna - Chievo: 3-1
Ancona - Perugia: 0-0
Roma - Sampdoria: 3-1
AS was down 0-1 after only 5 minutes, but a few minutes later they were already able to restore the balance as Carew scored. They slowly started to take over the game and in the second half Totti made it 3-1 with two goals.
Ancona who's struggling at the 18th spot with 7 goals in 17 matches, acquired Mario Jardel today on a loan base from Bolton for the rest of the season. Perhaps they'll be able to at least score a few more goals now. |
