Serie A Week 27 - 1-3-2013 (8:45 p.m.) - San Paolo Stadium - Napels Referee: Daniele Orsato HT 1-1: Tense Scudetto showdown all square Mar 1, 2013 Giorgio Chiellini’s header and a deflected Gokhan Inler screamer have Napoli and Juventus level at half-time, but Edinson Cavani should’ve been sent off. Only six points separated these teams as they went head-to-head at the San Paolo. Goran Pandev was preferred to Lorenzo Insigne and Christian Maggio picked for the right, while Giorgio Chiellini passed a fitness test for his first start in three months. Federico Peluso and Sebastian Giovinco were chosen ahead of Kwadwo Asamoah and Alessandro Matri, but Martin Caceres, Paolo De Ceglie and Nicolas Anelka were injured. Juve last conquered the San Paolo in Serie A on September 30, 2000, when Antonio Conte was playing in their midfield. The pre-match choreography created a mosaic of Vesuvius and the sea, with flares set off to show the volcano erupting. The pitch was re-laid this week to ensure a perfect playing surface. Within 15 seconds Marek Hamsik had scuffed a shot off target, while Giovinco turned well to sting the palms of Morgan De Sanctis. It was Juventus who took the lead when a corner was taken short and Andrea Pirlo curled a cross to the back post for Chiellini’s header, as he out-jumped Miguel Angel Britos. The defender celebrated wildly and punched his chest like Tarzan after his second career goal against Napoli. Stephan Lichtsteiner went down too easily under pressure from Gokhan Inler and the referee waved away his penalty appeals. At the other end, defenders blocked off both Pandev and Edinson Cavani from getting their shots away from a Hamsik through ball. Arturo Vidal whipped in a cross for Mirko Vucinic, whose looping header across the face of goal whistled just wide with De Sanctis stranded. On 19 minutes Vidal broke clear on the counter and rolled across for the totally unmarked Vucinic, but De Sanctis performed a fantastic one-handed save to palm it wide. There was a terrifying moment on the half-hour when Britos accidentally clashed heads with teammate Inler and the Uruguayan seemed to be out cold for a few moments, but he was able to continue. Vucinic had another good opportunity following an Inler error, but his first touch let him down when clear on goal. Hamsik’s through ball for Cavani was crucially intercepted by Chiellini, then from the corner Andrea Barzagli stopped the Uruguayan from pulling the trigger. Lichtsteiner fired wide from the edge of the box, then Giovinco couldn’t take advantage of an error as Vucinic got in his way. Just as the teams looked ready to go into the half-time break, Inler drew Napoli level with a screamer from distance that took a touch off Leonardo Bonucci’s head to lift it slightly into the top corner, where Gigi Buffon could not reach. Napoli’s tails were up in stoppages and Juan Camilo Zuniga’s strike was charged down. There was tension from a corner, as Chiellini pulled Cavani’s hair, then the Uruguayan reacted by elbowing the defender in the side of the face. The goal line referee saw it all and advised that Cavani be booked. As this was seen and judged by officials, Cavani cannot be tried using video evidence for this incident..

Serie A Week 27 - 1-3-2013 (8:45 p.m.) - San Paolo Stadium - Napels Referee: Daniele Orsato Juve bus pelted with rocks Mar 1, 2013 Napoli fans pelted the Juventus team bus with eggs, bottles and rocks, smashing the window where Kwadwo Asamoah was sat. The Bianconeri arrived at the Stadio San Paolo ahead of tonight’s Serie A match, which kicks off at 19.45 GMT. There was a police escort for the team bus on its journey from the hotel to the stadium, but that did not stop a group of hooligans throwing objects as it travelled. Reports suggest it was pelted with eggs, but also bottles and some fairly large rocks. Juventus director Beppe Marotta confirmed the window was smashed where Asamoah was sitting on the bus. The Ghanaian is not in the starting XI, as Federico Peluso was preferred for the left flank. “It was not a relaxed journey,” admitted defender Andrea Barzagli on Sky Sport Italia. “Now we must concentrate on the match, which is better. It will be a game that counts for a great deal and means a lot to us. “Antonio Conte fired us up with his usual words.” http://www.soccerway.com/national/italy/serie-a/20122013/regular-season/
