who has the main eleven for 2-0 today! Piacenza 6 Juventus 6 Milan 6 Inter 6 Bologna 4 Parma 4 Chievo V. 3 Perugia 3 Brescia 3 Lazio 3 Empoli 3 Atalanta 1 Udinese 1 Torino 0 Modena* 0 Reggina 0 Roma* 0 Como 0 one more gol from argentine Hubner, did J montano played 90?
PIACENZA (3-5-2): Guardalben, Cristante, Lamacchi, Mangone (17' s.t. Boselli), Gurenko (38' s.t. Campagnaro), Riccio, Maresca, Di Francesco, Tosto, Montano, Hubner. (1 Orlandoni, 23 Zerbini, 6 Marcolin, 28 Obolo). Allenatore: Agostinelli. Looks like your guy Montano went the whole way... Since when is Hubner Argentine?
But Parma would not really be a surprise. Granted, they've lost many key players - Di Vaio, Cannavaro, etc etc - but they are still a club built on a solid foundation with unusually sound business practices (for Serie A). I didn't predict a top six finish, but given the abundance of smaller teams in Serie A this year, Parma could stand out. This also helps Piacenza, which has been fairly stable for a couple of years now.
I didn't think Piacenza would do as well with Hubner aging, but I was wrong. Also, Parma probably would be considered a potential suprise team, because although they usually do well, last season they narrowly escaped relegation as well as loosing several key players.
