Hopefully this means Aquilani will be returning home

home as in... Roma?

Milan vs Juventus 1st leg today, buzzing. Forza Juve.

the new serie A rules are weird

Roma vs Catania "kicks off" today with a Catania throw in. scores at 1:1 with clock starting on 65:12. substitutions are carried over so we can't use de rossi or totti in this match. Catania can use 3 subs for the remainder of the match, we can only use 1. cards are carried over as well. both sides have to start with the players they left off with in the last match, barring any injuries and transfers

I'm watching

a lot of websites are broken because of this lol. espn shows we've made 5 substitutions. text commentary is also broken

it'll be interesting how games like Football Manager will incorporate this in their next release

Turf looks good...

ok maybe i lied about the " both sides have to start with the players they left off with in the last match, barring any injuries and transfers". either that or i got lied to

seems like both teams can start whoever the * they want

So in a way, both teams were allowed 11 subs

well, 14 subs and 12 subs

we still can use 1 more substitution before the end of the match. catania can use 3

Great save Stekelenburg.

this is a weird match to follow. bet it's even harder for the players

Great goalkeeping from both keepers!

Yeah, I've never seen anything like it

Ended 1-1 after 3 weeks.

Schnix, I flick that channels from time to time and I have Roma TV and they show your reserves alot and you always seem to win by big scorelines, ones to look out for?

not reserves, theyre youth team. wow, surprised you get Roma TV. where do you live and what provider?

piscitella's our best player. don't try him in FM though. he's posh

our other outstanding youth players this season are nego, tallo, leonardi, viviani, and caprari

Yeah I live in Malta now where most football fans are Italian and English supporters so it's great for me because they're my favourite football countries I'll keep an eye on them, remember one game when the scoreline was like 7-0. Can't wait for the Milan game now, forza Juve!

Oh yeah, come back home Fabio Capello, where your management skills are much more appreciated .

Milan 1-2 Juve, great result!

The second goal was a beauty.

Siena leading their first leg against Napoli

2-0

goodbye napoli

Lazio were 2-0 down now they're winning 3-2.

Siena have been impressive in this cup run tbf, it was them that knocked you out in the 4-4 right Mauro?

I'll take that as a yes. Was a great game

Finished 2-1 to Siena, Napoli hit the crossbar with the final chance. Still though, I think it's advantage to them with that away goal.

Hoping that Siena parks a few buses at the San Paolo.
