Verdicts Could Arrive By March As Judge Expects Fast Progress In 2011 Judge Teresa Casoria told the court she expects a speedy conclusion which could see verdicts arrive by March... Dec 14, 2010 The Calciopoli trial at the tribunal of Naples resumed on Tuesday, but was adjourned for January 11, 2011 as Judge Teresa Casoria demands a rapid conclusion. The court was expecting to hear a number of the accused including former referee designator Pierluigi Pairetto, ex referee Massimo De Santis and former linesman designator Gennaro Mazzei. However, none of those were questioned, nor did they make any statements. Casoria though did tell the court of how she expected the trial to proceed when it regathers in the new year. "We must move forward fast," the court was told. "I will ask the president of the Tribunal of Napoli to hold hearings on Saturdays too." Public prosecutor Giuseppe Narducci is expected to start the closing of the trial from the end of January with the possibility of a verdict being reached for March. So far evidence from the defendants has been heard during the trial, but Narducci is likely to call in witnesses to present evidence against the accused including former Juventus director Luciano Moggi. However, the court is still waiting for some 300 wiretaps to be transcribed by Roberto Porto.

Juventus Confirm Claudio Marchisio Has Not Suffered Soleus Injury Good news for Juventus midfielder Claudio Marchisio as tests exclude muscular injury... Dec 14, 2010 Claudio Marchisio has been given the all-clear by Juventus after scans showed he has not damaged his soleus muscle, but there is no confirmation as to whether he will play in the Europa League against Manchester City on Thursday.

Beppe Marotta: There Is No Rift Between Del Neri And Buffon Juventus sporting director dismisses suggestions that Buffon will leave Juventus next month... Dec 13, 2010 Juventus sporting director Beppe Marotta has denied talks of a rift between coach Luigi Del Neri and goalkeeper Gianluigi Buffon and insists that the Italy international is not going to leave the club next month. Buffon's agent Silvano Martina was reportedly angry after Del Neri said that he no longer considers the injured star indispensable but Marotta says that there is no problem between the two men.

Juventus Won't Sign Cassano Or Gilardino - Giuseppe Marotta Juventus will not be spending big in January, claims general director Giuseppe Marotta... Dec 13, 2010 Juventus' transfer campaign will be conservative and, if necessary, discreet as Giuseppe Marotta excludes moves for Sampdoria's Antonio Cassano and Alberto Gilardino of Fiorentina. Reports on Monday suggested a swap deal between Amauri and Gilardino was likely, while others mentioned the arrival of Antonio Cassano, who discovers the outcome of his rescission case later today. But Marotta was quick to play down the hyperbole as he closed the door. "We will not make important investments, the players who arrive, if they arrive, will have to improve the team, otherwise we will stay as we are," he told Sky Sport Italia. "We must remember we have the most prolific attack, and an excellent midfield. We don't have to buy. "The voices on Amauri and Gilardino are unfounded. And as for Cassano, I cannot see that we will get him as we have different plans."

Risultato importante!

MILOS!

Grande parata di Muslera

Fallo fuori area su Milos

Andrea Agnelli sconsolato. Non si vince neanche stasera

Pepe e Del Piero non si comprendono

Ci mancava solo il goal di Zarate

Alex sbaglia il passaggio

Muslera para su Pepe

10 minuti alla fine

Iaquinta fuori di poco

Floccari fa il furbetto secondo Zuliani

La terna arbitrale ci danno addosso ... sono in malafede

Rimpalli che favoriscono la Lazio

Cross sbagliato di Milos che si dispera

Che controllo di palla Milos!
