Halftime in the eight Serie A matches occurring at the moment brings a few surprises, the biggest of which is that Roma are currently losing to the visiting Catania 2-1. Marco Borriello scored early for the home side, but goals by Matias Silvestre and Maxi Lopez have put Catania ahead at the break.
Italian Serie A Thursday: Palermo, Catania, Udinese And Bologna All Lead, Milan And Lazio Unable To Find Net
Elsewhere, league leaders AC Milan and scudetto challengers Lazio have both failed to find the net. In fact, Cagliari is putting up a fine showing against the visiting Milan, who present little threat in the absence of Zlatan Ibrahimovic. Lazio, for their part, have put plenty of pressure on Bologna, but it’s amounted to nothing thus far.
Udinese are doing their best to give Chievo Verona a fair shot. Alexis Sanchez scored in the 13th minute and Antonio Di Natale found a second in the 24th, but Di Natale also missed a penalty kick in the 41st minute, keeping the score at 2-0 and allowing Chievo to stay in the match.
Bologna lead Fiorentina 1-0 through a 4th minute goal by Marco Di Vaio. Cesena are up 2-0 at Brescia through goals by Luis Jimenez and Luca Ceccarelli, which could lift Cescena further away from the relegation zone, should they keep the lead.
