| INTER | 2-2 |
PALERMO |
| Cruz 67 |
Caracciolo 3 |
|
| Adriano 74 |
Zaccardo 46 |
|
| Simplicio, who is going through a barren
spell, hit a dreadful speculative shot from distance, the ball landed at Caracciolo's feet and he bundled past Julio Cesar. Cesar pulled off two brilliant saves, tipping an absolute missile of a shot from Cassani against the post then made a point blank save from Bresciano. Another speculative shot landed at Barzagli's feet, he played in Zaccardo with a reverse pass and the defender hammered in off the underside of the crossbar. Inter showed up in the second half. Having had a goal disallowed Cruz headed in a deep Figo cross and he served up another one for Adriano to equalise. Ibrahimovic, on as a second half sub, wasted the only chance to hit the winner with a powder puff finish after great work by Adriano. Attendance : Assists : Simplicio, Barzagli, Figo, Figo |

| ASCOLI | 2-2 |
LAZIO |
| Soncin 70 |
Rocchi 73 |
|
| Di Biagio 76 (Pen) |
Jimenez 84 |
|
| Soncin took advantage of a rare error from
Peruzzi, who jumped for a cross and missed completely, to head Ascoli into the lead. Pandev got on the end of a cross from Serie A's most improved player of the season, Argentinean midfielder Christian Ledesma, forcing Eleftheropoulos to save but Rocchi was on hand to slot in the rebound. Di Biagio blasted a shot against the underside of the crossbar and as Bjelanovic attacked the rebound Stendardo hauled him down to concede the penalty. Jimenez, Lazio's big money January signing, took Mudingayi's cross chest before ripping a volley into the net. Attendance : 10,000 Red Card : Stendardo 75 (Lazio) Assists : Pesce, n/a, Bjelanovic (won pen), Mudingayi |

| Lucarelli 28 |
Bianchi 31 |
|
| Paulinho turned away from two defenders as he
ran into the box then chipped a gorgeous low cross for Lucarelli to slam in a volley at the back post. Bianchi joined him on 16 goals when he picked up a loose ball on the edge of the box and ran through unchallenged before slotting into the corner. Attendance : 8,000 Assists : Paulinho, Modesto |

| MESSINA | 1-3 |
MILAN |
| Masiello 93 |
Kaka' 14 |
|
|
Favalli 30 |
||
|
Ronaldo 86 |
||
| Kaka' ended a run of 12 Serie A games without
a goal when he latched onto a rebound 20 yards from goal and placed the ball low into the corner. Ronaldo was dispossessed after attempted to play a one-two with Kaka', Gourcuff stole the ball off Alvarez before he had a chance to clear then clipped a great pass into the path of Favalli and for the second consecutive week he found the back of the net. Ronaldo turned onto a Kaka' pass before blasting a right foot shot from 25 yards past Paoletti. Kaladze switched off to allow Masiello in for the equaliser. After commenting that Ronaldo was only 70% in mid-week that's exactly what Gazzetta wrote in a headline today. He's scored 5 goals in his 10 Serie A games so far which is an excellent return. On leaving Real Madrid he said : "I hope Real Madrid win the league but only for the sake of my old team-mates, not for the coach, who doesn't deserve it". Attendance : 25,000 Assists : n/a, Gourcuff, Kaka', Floccari |

| PARMA | 1-1 |
CATANIA |
| Couto 32 |
Spinesi 20 |
|
| Lucenti tried to pick out Spinesi but sent
his cross straight to Contini, the defender tried to stop the ball but completely missed and it rolled invitingly to Spinesi who shot over Bucci as he charged off his line. Parma equalised when Couto got the faintest of touches to a Cigarini free kick. Attendance : 14,000 Assists : Lucenti, Cigarini |

| ROMA | 4-0 |
SAMPDORIA |
| Totti 21, 66 |
|
|
| Ferrari 71 | ||
| Panucci 87 | ||
| Inspired by Carrick's excellent first goal
for Man United in their 7-1 thrashing of Roma, Totti scored a carbon copy to give Roma the lead. Despite having scored 19 goals up to this point the Samp defence didn't think it was necessary to pick up Totti so he ran between three of them onto Mancini's pass and slotted in goal #20 which means he's leading the ESM Golden Shoe standings ahead of Milito (19), Drogba (18) and Gekas (Bochum, 17). Having scored twice Totti then laid on the third for Everton reject Ferrari and Panucci completed the rout from a Mancini free kick. I know I should wrote this on Tuesday but 7-Up, that's who should sponsor Roma. Attendance : 31,875 Assists : Pizarro, Mancini, Totti, Mancini (fk) |

| TORINO | 1-2 |
ATALANTA |
| Abbruscato 70 |
Gallo 1 (og) |
|
|
Zampagna 8 |
||
| Bellini was credited with the opening goal
but Torino defender Gallo got a decisive deflection on his long range strike. Zampagna punished a mistake by centre back Cioffi to poach Atalanta's second. Adriano was booked for a studs up challenge. Fortunately the player on the receiving end wasn't injured. Barone ran into Adriano to earn the defender a harsh second yellow, though he deserved red for the aforementioned foul. Abbruscato met Ardito's cross with a muscular header. Oguro wasted Torino's best chance to equalise. Attendance : 23,000 Red Card : Adriano 39 (Atalanta) Assists : n/a, n/a, Ardito |

CHIEVO |
| Iaquinta 34 |
Pellissier 9 |
|
| Di Natale 73 | ||
|
Pellissier out-sprinted Zapata onto a longball before lobbing over the onrushing De Sanctis, who is having an average season by his standards. Pinzi received possession from a short corner and stuck a cross into the centre of the box for Iaquinta to equalise. Di Natale slipped a pass out wide to Baretto, as he ran into the box he pulled the ball back towards the centre circle and Di Natale sent a bouncing volley under Squizzi. Attendance : 14,000 Assists : Squizzi, Pinzi, Baretto |
