Football. Ua sums up the thirty-eighth, final round of the championship of Italy.

The main question of the final, thirty-eighth, round of the championship of Italy was this: who will join Palermo and Pescara, and will be the third superfluous in Serie A. Crotona had fewer chances in all the hands than Empoli, but nobody forbade the Sharks and their fans to believe in the miracle.

Also fans of football were interested in the question: who, Roma or Napoli will get the second place and direct ticket to the group round of the Champions League. Well, the last unsolved problem - the winner of the crown of the top scorer, which claimed Edin Dzeko of Roma, Dries Mertens of Napoli and Andrea Belotti of Torino. In this case, the sensation did not happen: all three differed in time, and the prize went to the Roman Bosnian.

Tour results Believe in yourself and not notice obstacles!.

When there were nine rounds left before the finish of the championship, Croton looked like a hopeless outsider, but in April the Sharks took a jerk that impressed everyone. In seven rounds Croton did not know defeats, scored 17 points (five wins and two draws) and came close to Empoli, who occupied the 17th, saving place in the standings. We needed one more jerk, but in the last two matches the calendar was determined by the rivals Sharks Juventus and Lazio - a completely lost option.

Well, against Juventus, who very much wanted to register the title on the home arena, Croton could not resist, and before the final round of the championship he had to beat the Roman Eagles and pray to Palermo, who took Empoli. Well, the Sharks did everything they could, and let those who were more sympathetic to Empoli argue that Lazio simply did not rest on anything that did not solve the match, but just look at the number of yellow cards that the raped Romans were hanging on the gate Opponent, but could not do anything with the hosts. By the way, the hero of the match Andrea Nalini, who made a double, before in Serie A matches, never (!) Scored.

Nothing was needed and Palermo, but only completely ignorant of the Sicilian nature of a person could assume that a trip to the south will be for Empoli a fun walk. Palermo farewell not only loudly slammed the door, but personally dumped his unfortunate rival to the bottom (to Serie B) ... The King "died" ... and the other will no longer be Rome's Stadio Olimpico has experienced one of the most controversial days in its history. On the one hand, the torn victory over Genoa allowed the Wolves to keep the second place and with it a direct ticket to the group round of the Champions League, on the other - Francesco Totti will never again come out on the field in the T-shirt of Roma.

The legendary Emperor, who spent his entire career in one team (25 seasons!!), Is a unique phenomenon for modern football, in which stars flit from club to club and from championship to championship like moths in pursuit of sweet nectar. The last of the Mohicans ... And it must have happened that Roma almost made her captain and idol cry not only from frustrated feelings because of parting with her beloved team, but also from grief. In fact, almost before the beginning of the compensated time, the fate of the Volkov hung in the balance: Genoa did not want to lose, and at the same time, Napoli easily and naturally, dealt with Sampdoria. But justice triumphed (or is justice not to do with it, but the whole thing is in the banal smile of Fortune?), And it does not matter that the decisive ball was not scored by Totti (that would be epic!), And another player who replaced - Perotti. The main thing is the result.

Begins the era of Napoli?.

Despite the fact that the team Maurizio Sarri finished in third place, a step lower than last season, Napoli set the club record for the number of points scored - 86. At the same time the Parthenopians gave an amazing unbeaten series of twelve fights after the March defeat in the Champions League from Real (10 wins and 2 draws, 35 goals scored!).

It's a pity that in the final round, even the victory of Dries Mertens and the company over Sampdoria did not allow them to bypass Roma, but if the club manages to keep all the team leaders and the coach, then next season the Neapolitans will probably fight not with Roma for second place, but with Juventus For the first. And it is hardly worthy to give the victory to the current champion of Italy in advance.

Everyone knows that the forecaster from Diego Maradona is nothing, besides the great Argentinian is clearly not indifferent to his former team, but this time to his words about the brilliant future of Napoli is worth listening to.

The eyes of charm - Atalanta At a time when the attention of the whole of Italy was riveted to Rome, Genoa, Crotone and Palermo, Atalanta modestly and without further ado, but on a positive note, finished in the championship victory over Chievo. And, as it turned out, this victory allowed Bergamaks to rise to fourth place, ahead of Lazio.

Starting with four defeats in the first five rounds, Atalanta nearly lost her coach, Gian Piero Gasperini, in September, but Orobichi's leadership had enough patience, and it justified itself.

It's hard to say what the next season will be for the team that starts in the Europa League without a whole series of current leading performers (Frank Kessier, Alejandro Gomez, Andrea Conti and Andrea Petagna are not the full list of those who are trying to lure the European moneybags, and who will come to them For replacement - unknown). However, in the current Atalanta delivered a lot of pleasant moments to her fans, and just lovers of beautiful, emotional football.

The future begins today It often happens that the last round of the outgoing championship becomes a certain promise for the coming season. And it is very symbolic that in the fight against Bologna the winning goal for Juventus was scored by 17-year-old Moise Kin, who became the first player born after the beginning of 2000, who scored a goal in Serie A. The old Signora is not that old ... Or take Inter. The catastrophic ending of the season, in which the Serpents lost everything they could, and ended up with nothing, ended in two victories with a total score of 8: 3, and this despite injuring the best striker Neradzurri Mauro Ikardi! If we consider that in the summer the leadership of Inter will allocate at least 200 million euros for the strengthening of the team, the outlook is quite attractive.

What can not you say about fellow countrymen? Serpent from Milan. However, the limp finish Devils can be forgiven because they obtained a ticket to the Europa League. And then it's up to those whom the club's owners can provide at the disposal of the coach and how successfully Vincenzo Montella will be able to dispose of the received "raw materials".

Tour player Perhaps Andrea Nalini did not perform as vividly as some of the characters in the final round of the Italian championship.

However, it was the double left-hander Crotone at the gate of Lazio that allowed the Sharks to keep a residence permit in the elite division. While the show, arranged by his competitors, was such art for the sake of art - they shone in fights that had absolutely no value ...
