And now he’s injured and crying. Looks bad

Klaus

Looked like prime Totti with that dribbling raid. I hope he's not seriously hurt.

Clrnc

ACL done. Out for one year. Sad news for such a talented guy at this age

jones

Demiral with a torn ACL in the same game too. Maybe not the best idea to play two games in the same stadium a day apart

Lazio continue their great streak with a 5-1 win over Sampdoria.

Simone Inzaghi is quietly becoming one of the most underrated managers in Serie A.
He has consistently managed to keep Lazio as a very competitive side since taking over without having the resources of Juve, Napoli, Roma or both the Milan sides.

mentalvortex

Napoli on the other hand are sinking fast and may end outside the European spots altogether.

They have lost 4 in 5 since sacking Ancelotti and hiring Gattusso after today's loss at home versus Fiorentina.

Claudius

Gazidis in the Giuseppe Meazza smugly looking on at his 38 year old acquisition who leads the line today. Not satisfied with destroying one great football club...

Atalanta continue to be the most entertaining side to watch in Serie A after thrashing Torino 7-0 in Turin.

Klaus

I love that team so much. Gasperini has to be the most underrated manager in Europe.

Josip Illicic had absolutely incredible skills when he was at Palermo but inconsistent.

But he has added effectiveness to his game at Atalanta and is probably one of the best attacking mids in europe right now

MistaT

Roma looking strong vs Lazio.

Dzeko still doing the business

MistaT

these goalies 😆

Yep, he's been a top class player for several years now. Such badass perception to go with that skillset too, always reacts quicker than anyone else. The freekick he scored yesterday was literally from the halfway line for instance:

Rohit

That's brilliant.

Reminds me of couple years ago when Mertens out of nowhere started scoring goals like these. 21 league games now 25 goals 6 assists, he really might win the Golden Boot and smash Higuains record at Napoli

Difference being that Mertens didn't just start scoring goals like those, he didn't really score much at all before. Immobile has always been pretty reliable as long as he's playing with another striker, but yeah I haven't seen much stuff like that from him before.

That was a terrible goal. The ball defelected and looped up off the keeper and over the defender on the line.

Mertens was actually a pretty consistent scorer from the wing. He went up a full level when he played centrally and started scoring goals like these which Ciros goal reminded me of (although much better here)

Immobile as you say was a very good goal scorer but is posting Messi/Cristiano figures now. Whens the last time anyone did that in February bar those two and Lewandowski maybe?

Didn't see the deflection, takes away from the goal if there was one

Big Willie

Have to say the trajectory of the shot looked like it took a big deflection to me as well but only seen it from that one angle.
