The first-ever Serie A game on the CBS network was a historic occasion for the American broadcast channel to celebrate its viewership of the Italian top flight. Saturday's contest between newly promoted Parma and Italian giant AC Milan averaged an audience of 360,000 on the CBS network. CBS loaded a major amount of promotion and […]

The first-ever over-the-air (OTA) Serie A broadcast on CBS had all the makings of a memorable experience for the US viewing experience as Christian Pulisic and AC Milan took on Parma. Whilst not a traditional rivalry on the pitch or in the stands, it was a derby between American ownership groups – Krause Group vs. […]

Christian Pulisic, one of the standout stars of AC Milan, has seen his role evolve under new coach Paulo Fonseca. The manager tested the American winger in a central position during the preseason. That sparked speculation about a potential shift in his role within the team. However, despite these experiments, Pulisic will likely start on […]

A record U.S. audience for a Serie A fixture could be set when Parma take on AC Milan on Aug. 24. The contest is the first Serie A fixture ever to be shown on broadcast television by CBS. The American broadcaster recently extended their TV rights deal with the competition earlier this summer. Broadcasting over-the-air […]

With Wednesday's 1-1 draw against Bari, Serie B leaders Parma officially sealed their promotion to Serie A with two games to go. After 36 league matches, the Crociati have 74 points, good enough for first place in Italy's second level. Assuming nothing else changes this weekend, a victory against Cremonese would mathematically cement their position […]

After a remarkable 28-year career, Gianluigi Buffon announced his retirement from Parma and the beautiful game. In the past, the 45-year-old said he plans to stay playing until the 2026 World Cup. Also, Buffon added that he aims to finish out his contract with Parma. That deal expires in June 2024. However, the experienced goalie […]

While one of the biggest moves of the January transfer window happened recently, with Toni going to Juventus, there have been plenty of other, quieter moves which have gone unmentioned. Mostly they are young, aspiring Italians joining clubs on loan so that they can get some playing time to improve. Federico Macheda from Manchester United […]

After the sad news that Fabio Quagliarella will be out for the rest of the season, Juventus got a replacement in record time. It's Luca Toni who will be replacing Quagliarella (out for 4-6 months with a torn cruciate knee ligament), the World Cup winner leaving Genoa to sign a one and a half year […]

The eternal Hernan Crespo has struck again, ending Fiorentina's Coppa Italia run. While the Coppa Italia isn't too interesting in the early stages, I really do enjoy it when it reaches the round of eight, like it has now. Maybe it's due to the different mentality teams have when they play knockout football, and it […]

The Serie A is getting more and more exciting, especially after these recent results, and the matches which will be played this Sunday. Napoli got an important 1-0 win away against Genoa, Palermo came back to beat Parma 3-1 at the Renzo Barbera, and Udinese also completed a comeback win at home, 2-1 over Fiorentina. […]

This weekend in the Serie A, among the results there were plenty of 1-1 draws, a goalless draw, a couple of 3-1 wins, and then a 5-2! Yes, a 5-2 win took place in the Serie A this weekend, and it was Inter Milan which defeated Parma in the seven goal thriller. This weekend there […]

Although not all of the Serie A matches have been played, I've still decided to write about the nine matches which were played. Tomorrow AC Milan will face Napoli at the Stadio San Paolo, and it'll be interesting if they can take advantage of Inter Milan's draw against Sampdoria. But first, here's five things to […]

Niccolo brings up an interesting debate in his weekend review post that I wanted to put to a vote. This weekend we saw two incredible goals in Serie A, and I will throw it out to the readership to vote on which one was the best. Contender #1 – Ilicic's Opening Goal Against Fiorentina Josip […]

Udinese have been underachievers, this was especially seen last season, when the club only arrived in 15th place. While it could seem strange that I define them as underachievers, I know the talent in the team is incredible, especially going forward. Maybe they've never had the right coach, or maybe the team never gelled together […]

Last season was a special one for the Blucerchiati, as they finished the season in fourth place in Serie A and qualified for the Champions League. The club also unveiled a striker-duo that could not only lead Sampdoria to further success but form the basis of a more potent attack on the Italian national team. […]
