Written By Onyeka Daniel

Despite the tragedy that struck at the Artemio Franchi stadium between Fiorentina and Inter Milan, the collapsing of Eduardo Bove and the pitch and the subsequent postponement of the match, other matches did go in other stadium in the Italian Serie A, especially the match between Roma and Atalanta, with the Roma players paying special tribute to their former player, who is on loan at Fiorentina. So far, Napoli continue to lead, while Atalanta remain closely behind.

According to initial projections, the earliest that the postponed match can take place is next year January or February, depending on their (Inter and Fiorentina) European commitments. Elsewhere, AC Milan finally managed to string together a couple of wins in the League while Juventus continue to falter, even if they remain the only team in the league without a loss after 14 round of matches. We will now take a look at some of the best goals for this round.

LATEST POSTS

1) Anas Haj Mohamed (Parma)

While Nicolo Rovella’s disallowed goal may have been a contender for the best goal this week, it definitely cannot beat Haj Mohamed’s goal for Parma, their second against Parma. The 19-year-old was starting his first game for the club and what a way to announce himself with a fantastic goal, hitting a perfect volley from far out and the ball flew into the top right corner.

2) Tijjani Reijnders (AC Milan)

Perhaps one of the few players to have made the list with two different entries and it’s not surprising why AC Milan wants to renew his contract despite just signing him in the last summer transfer window. With his second goal, he put the icing on the cake of a great performance. He took a great first touch to control a killer pass on the edge of the box and after advancing towards goal, he fired a shot into the bottom left corner in trademark fashion.

3) Tijjani Reijnders (AC Milan)

For the first goal, he happened to be at the right place and at the right time as he picked up the ball from a rebound and from the edge of the box he unleashed a low shot into the bottom left corner, with the keeper unable to keep the ball out of the net to continue his goal scoring form for the club in all competitions.

3) Scott McTominay (Napoli)

After several saves from the Torino keeper, Napoli finally broke the deadlock thanks to the impressive midfielder that was signed from Manchester United in the summer. With a great assist from Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, who was able to beat his man inside the box and passed it to McTominay. The Scotland international still had plenty of work to do and he did just that as his first touch raised the ball a little and he hit a shot with the left fot, burying the ball into the bottom left corner for the only goal of the game that helped the Partenopei keep their lead at the top of the table.

4) Yannik Engelhardt (Como)

His first goal for the club may not have been the best of goals, but he definitely put some effort into it as he gets to a headed rebound inside the six-yard box and produces a header, putting the ball inside the right post. While it gave his team the lead, it wasn’t enough to secure the maximum points in the game.

5) Andrea Pinamonti (Genoa)

While the goal might not be a thing of beauty, Pinamonti showed the instincts of a classic forward for this goal, reacting the quickest to the ball, and also being on-side as confirmed by a VAR check on the goal. The ball rebounded to the path of the former Inter striker after a melee in the box, and he easily beats the keeper from close range for the opening goal of the game.

6) Andrea Cambiaso (Juventus)

Even if the goal was a deflection, it looked like it was heading for the bottom corner anyways after some good work from Cambiaso from the right-back position. He completed two different give and go and the second one was from Teun Koopmeiners, who passed the ball to his teammate and the Italian international fired in a shot from the edge of the box which was deflected.

8) Ante Rebic (Lecce)

After several misses from Nikola Krstovic, the Montenegro forward made up for it with the perfect assist as the home side managed to conjure up a goal just when it was looking like a win for the Bianconeri. For Ante Rebic, the former AC Milan man would definitely be feeling proud as gets behind his marker to bury the chance into the bottom left corner from inside the box.

9) Martin De Roon (Atalanta)

Another deflected goal that made it into the list and for Atalanta, they will definitely take it as it keeps them closer to Napoli in the Scudetto race (just one point separating them). A rebound fell kindly to the Dutch midfielder and the Atalanta captain tried his luck from the edge of the box and his shot takes a deflection and goes past the stranded Mile Svilar in goal.

10) Enrico Del Prato (Parma)

With an awful defending allowing Lazio to reduce the deficit, the away side went in search of the equalizing goal and they were punished for it as a corner in the 91st minute fell nicely to Charpentier and he managed to turn his marker before releasing his captain inside his own half. For Del Prato, he had only the keeper to beat as he raced towards goal and put the ball beyond Ivan Provedel for the third Parma goal.
