Bologna also picked up a memorable win by beating Lazio 2-1 in the capital, and Atalanta continued to look good in the race for fourth with a 3-0 win at home against Sassuolo.

At the top of the table, Inter extended their lead by beating Salernitana 4-0 at home before Juventus dropped points with their 2-2 draw at Hellas Verona.

Elsewhere, Torino beat Lecce 2-0, Napoli-Genoa, Udinese-Cagliari and Empoli-Fiorentina all drew 1-1. AS Roma won 3-0 away at Frosinone.

Inter beating Juventus 1-0 was the standout result on a weekend of noteworthy Serie A results, and our Italian Football Podcast is here to chat through it all.

The Nerazzurri were 1-0 winners away at Fiorentina with Lautaro Martinez scoring his 19th goal of the season, but Nico Gonzalez produced a truly awful penalty miss that stopped his team from getting a point.

That was a crucial three points for Inter because Juventus drew 1-1 against Empoli, having seen Arkadiusz Milik get sent off after just 18 minutes. The gap is now one point and Inter have a game in hand.

AC Milan failed to make up any ground on Juventus as they drew 2-2 at home to Bologna, missing from the spot on two occasions. Lazio and Napoli played out a shocking 0-0 draw, and Atalanta reached fourth by beating Udinese 2-0.

Elsewhere, Torino beat Cagliari 2-1, Genoa beat Lecce 2-1, Monza won 1-0 against Sassuolo and Verona drew 1-1 with Frosinone.

Two European hopefuls lost as Fiorentina stumbled at Sassuolo and Napoli were hammered away at Torino, while AS Roma and Atalanta drew 1-1 in the capital. AC Milan beat Empoli 3-0 and Lazio won 2-1 at Udinese to take full advantage of the other sides slipping up.

Elsewhere, Bologna drew 1-1 with Genoa and Monza beat Frosinone 3-2.

On what was a low-scoring weekend, AC Milan and Fiorentina both claimed 1-0 wins over Sassuolo and Torino, respectively, while fellow European hopefuls Atalanta won by that same scoreline at home to Lecce.

Lazio beat Frosinone 3-1 in the highest-scoring game of the weekend, and the biggest shock saw Udinese beat high-flying Bologna 3-0. Elsewhere, Napoli and Monza drew 0-0, as did Cagliari and Empoli, and Salernitana claimed three huge points at Hellas Verona.

Matchday 11 of the 2023/24 Serie A season saw the possible title race take on a new complexion with the headline result being AC Milan's 1-0 home defeat against an Udinese side who were yet to win a game this season.

That defeat and victories for Inter and Juventus mean that things are starting to look a little bleak for Stefano Pioli and his side, albeit with a lot of the season still left to play. Inter's win came away at Atalanta with another superb goal from Lautaro Martinez.

Juventus went away to Fiorentina and whilst they certainly didn't excite the watching fans, they efficiently won 1-0 and they are just two points behind Inter with a lot fewer games to contend with.

To chat through all of the Serie A results from Matchday 11, Euan Burns hosts Vito Doria and Kevin Pogorzelski on this weekend’s Italian Football Podcast. There are two Monday night games this week as well, which will be discussed on the bonus podcast over on Patreon.

Napoli and AC Milan remain the teams to beat, seeing off Sassuolo and Torino respectively. The Partenopei were again fired on by Victor Osimhen, while Christian Pulisic continued his bright start to life in Serie A with another goal for the Rossoneri.

Juventus drew at home to Bologna, Atalanta lost on the road to Frosinone, Hellas Verona beat AS Roma, and Lazio lost at home to Mateo Retegui and Genoa.

To discuss it all, we are here as Conor Clancy hosts Euan Burns, Kevin Pogorzelski and Vito Doria.

After Napoli had overcome an early scare at Frosinone to win and Inter subsequently saw off Monza, both AS Roma and Lazio slipped up on Sunday against Salernitana and Lecce respectively. There was good news for the Lupi though as Andrea Belotti ended his 15-month wait for a Serie A goal, scoring twice in an excellent performance, but Lazio threw away a 1-0 lead to lose 2-1 in Salento, conceding twice after the 85th minute.

Elsewhere, Charles De Ketelaere enjoyed a dream debut for Atalanta, helping them to a 2-0 win at Sassuolo, and Juventus started well with a comprehensive 3-0 win away to Udinese.

Fiorentina won 4-1 at Genoa and Hellas Verona beat Empoli 1-0. Bologna vs AC Milan and Torino vs Cagliari are Monday night games, so you'll have to wait until the bonus podcast this week to hear those discussed.

There was also an additional relegation playoff at the end of the season which was not expected, as well as an Italian team featuring in all three of the major UEFA competition finals. They may have all lost, but it's the taking part that really counts.

There were some incredible individual seasons for the likes of Victor Osimhen, Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, Ivan Provedel, Federico Dimarco and many more. We discuss them in our individual and combined Team's of the Season as well as all of the action that went down over the past 10 months.

There wasn’t too much to resolve on the final matchday with the Champions League places already sealed and two of the three relegation places as well, but both Atalanta and AS Roma secured qualification for the Europa League with Juventus qualifying for the Europa Conference League.

Then there were some emotional farewells with Fabio Quagliarella bowing out as a Sampdoria player - and maybe as a professional footballer - in his home city at Napoli’s Stadio Diego Armando Maradona. Up north, Zlatan Ibrahimovic hung up his boots at an emotional San Siro.

To chat through the Matchday 38 action - and with a season review pod to come - Kevin Pogorzelski joins Conor Clancy.

Juventus’ off-field issues might have played a part as they fell to a 4-1 hammering at Empoli, AC Milan thumped Sampdoria 5-1, Napoli beat Inter 3-1, Atalanta saw off Hellas Verona, and Lazio won at Udinese as well. AS Roma were unable to keep up with their fellow European hopefuls, drawing at home to Salernitana.

At the bottom, Lecce and Spezia played out a goalless draw that really didn’t suit either of them.

The guys discuss Inter’s win over Lazio, Napoli’s failure to see off Salernitana, Juventus’ latest slip at Bologna, AC Milan and AS Roma’s bore draw in the capital, and plenty more.

There’s a midweek round of Serie A now which will likely see Napoli win the league.

That is where much of the focus lies but with all of the other teams chasing a Champions League place also winning except for Inter, we look at how long Simone Inzaghi has likely got left in the job.

Things got heated in both of those games on Sunday, finishing off a good weekend of Serie A action that saw Napoli extend their lead at the top to 19 points and putting the Scudetto within reach as soon as Matchday 31. The runaway leaders beat Torino handily with a 4-0 win on the road. 

Elsewhere, Atalanta fought back to beat Empoli at home, AC Milan lost on the road at Udinese, and Scotland’s Lewis Ferguson was on target again for Bologna. Even Sampdoria claimed a huge 3-1 home win over Hellas Verona to get off the bottom of the table.

Napoli and Atalanta both continued their form at the top with wins over Bologna and Sassuolo respectively, and we’ve got a full house of Conor Clancy, Euan Burns, Kev Pogorzelski and Vito Doria on the pod to chat through it all. 

AC Milan managed to climb above Lazio by beating Hellas Verona on Sunday night. The Biancocelesti were only able to manage a 0-0 draw with fellow high-flyers Udinese on Sunday afternoon.

Saturday started off with Empoli getting a 1-0 win over Monza. The Derby della Mole followed and whilst it did not entertain the masses, Juventus got a 1-0 win thanks to Dusan Vlahovic’s goal. The final game on Saturday saw Atalanta come from behind to beat Sassuolo 2-1 in Bergamo.

On Sunday, Inter continued their return to form by beating Salernitana 2-0. The afternoon matches saw the 0-0 draw between Lazio and Udinese, a 2-2 draw between Spezia and Cremonese, and then Napoli’s 3-2 win over Bologna.

The day was rounded off by Hellas Verona being beaten 2-1 at home by AC Milan, where Sandro Tonali scored a late winner.

Monday night saw Sampdoria lose at home to AS Roma and then Fiorentina drew away at Lecce.

Napoli and Roma were able to capitalise on those around them dropping points, making the top half of the 2020/21 Serie A table look even more exciting than it had before Round 7.

Juventus got back to winning ways, as did a heavily-rotated Atalanta, while Inter surprisingly dropped points at home to Parma.

The Forza Italian Football Podcast, thankfully, is here to talk about all of the calcio action from the weekend just gone. Kevin Pogorzelski, Vito Doria and our Rome-based correspondent Alasdair Mackenzie all joined host Conor Clancy on this week's show, which very nearly didn't make it to you.

Elsewhere, Lazio scored twice in stoppage time to steal a win at Torino, Sampdoria and Genoa played out a draw in the Derby della Lanterna, Bologna beat Cagliari and there was a whole lot to talk about.

There was even more fallout than usual in Round 3 as Juventus-Napoli became the game that never was, with the Partenopei stranded in Campania and now facing a possible one-point deduction and nobody really knowing what's going on.

Juventus' loss at Udinese and Inter's draw with Fiorentina means that the Old Lady, Atalanta or Inter can still win the Scudetto this year, with the gap now at six points between the leaders and La Dea in second.

Conor Clancy, Kevin Pogorzelski and Vito Doria are back with the latest Forza Italian Football Podcast to talk through it all.

Genoa won the Derby della Lanterna to stay four points clear of Lecce even after they beat Brescia, while Parma finally won again as they hosted Napoli.

Nicolo Zaniolo showed his class with a fine goal against SPAL in the best of the rest and AC Milan's good form continued at Sassuolo.

Thankfully, Conor Clancy, Kevin Pogorzelski and Vito Doria are back with the latest Forza Italian Football Podcast to talk through all that happened.

The bottom four all faced off in a huge round of fixtures which saw Genoa earn themselves some breathing room, while Juventus got exactly that at the top as well by beating Lazio after Atalanta and Inter dropped points.

There was some more madness elsewhere, too, from Gaston Ramirez's best Ric Flair impressions, Kalidou Koulibaly finding a way around the backpass rule by using his post and Leonardo Spinazzola conceding the most comical penalty you'll see as well as so much more.

Just like Lazio, Conor Clancy and Kevin Pogorzelski are struggling to keep up with things since the restart, but Juventus' consistently underwhelming performances, AC Milan's reliable comebacks and Atalanta's goalscoring guarantee has made their lives considerably easier.

Maybe the title race isn't over after all, Lazio are on track to finish fourth in a two-horse race, Andrea Belotti has scored in seven straight games and there's even more interesting things going on that are almost impossible to keep up with.

But, in the absence of Vito Doria, Conor and Kev did their best.

Other games were also discussed... sorry AC Milan fans.

The game was one of six scheduled for this weekend, as Italian football made up for the games missed last week.

The derby went Juventus' way after the finest example of Italian (dis)organisation in Parma ahead of the Crociati falling to Andrea Petagna and SPAL.

AC Milan lost to Genoa as the sides at the bottom made the most of the empty stadiums, as Sampdoria also won against Hellas Verona.
