Inter Milan's striker Ronaldo limped off injured of the field as Inter beat Piacenza 3-2 to go to the top of Serie A.
The Brazilian's thigh strain was not thought to be real serious, but his enforced substitution overshadowed Christian Vieri's two goals.
On the other side of the road, AC Milan beat Verona 2-1 thanks to a last-minute goal by Romanian defender Cosmin Contra. Massimo Ambrosini scored Milan's other goal in his first appearance after an 11-month injury lay-off.
"Old Lady" Juventus cruised past over Brescia 4-0 to stay within striking distance as French striker David Trezeguet scored a goal and set up another.
Parma ended a six-game losing period with a 2-0 win over Fiorentina, while Perugia beat Atalanta 2-0, Torino fell to last-place Venezia 2-1 and Lecce beat Udinese 1-0.
Serie A's surprising team, Chievo, failed to surprising champions AS Roma, as the Italian champions defeated them 3-0. Chievo were undone by goals from Emerson, Walter Samuel and Damiano Tommasi. Both sides were reduced to 10-men, with Roma keeper Francesco Antonioli dismissed eight minutes into the second-half but with 11 minutes left Cheivo's ex-Bologna Eriberto got his red card.
Lazio blew a 2-0 solid lead to draw with Bologna 2-2. Claudio "Piojo" Lopez had given the home side a two-goal advantage, but strikes by Julio Cruz and Cristian Zaccardo ensured a share of the points. Dejan Stankovic was sent off for Lazio with 24 minutes remaining. |
