Serie A Special: What we learnt from round 21 matches - (Part 1) 
Serie A has entered the decisive part of the 2010-11 season. With little rest between now and the end of season, the twenty teams fighting for dominance will be severely tested. A league is like a marathon race, and only the team that manages to remain consistent
comes out on top after 38 games.
Match day 21 produced some excellent football. League leaders AC Milan registered a routine 2–0 victory over struggling AC Cesena. Champions League hopefuls SSC http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Lazio-c39775 continued to drop points in the
second half of the campaign. A http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Marco-Di-Vaio-c23689 inspired Bologna clipped Aquile wings with a 3–1 victory.
However, the biggest result of match day 21 was Udinese Calcio’s thrashing of Inter Milan. Leonardo was handed his first defeat in charge of the Nerazzurri, as Zebrette won the game by a 3–1 score line.
Bettor.com now highlights the key talking points from the games.
Udinese are the most entertaining team in Serie A
With their 3–1 home victory over a resurgent Inter Milan side, Zebrette are the new giant killers. If travelling to San Siro and scoring four past AC Milan wasn’t enough, Zebrette went one step further by humbling http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Inter-c39567 Milan. Alexis Sanchez and Antonio
Di Natale lead the Udinese orchestra, and that is just a delight for the neutrals.
Francesco Guidolin’s men have scored 13 goals in their last four games. US Palermo were the undoubted team to watch in the first half of the season, but 2011 has instilled a new energy within the Udine based outfit. Their insistence on attacking even the
best of teams is a breath of fresh air. Judging by the form Zebrette have displayed, they are en route to finishing for a European place. All they need is some consistency.
Media speculations suggest that Giampaolo Pozzo might look to cash-in on http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Alexis-Sánchez-c4979. Since the player is not cup-tied for European competitions, Sanchez is likely to fetch the president a handsome amount. However, losing Sanchez would be a big loss for
Udinese, as well as Serie A. A player of Sanchez’s quality can’t be unearthed every day. Pozzo has to decide between cash and future ambitions of the club. 
Sebastian Giovinco continues to power Ducali
While a lethargic, physical and unimaginative Juventus outfit managed a drab draw against UC Sampdoria, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Calcio-Catania-c38719. Where Juventus lacked pace, creativity and ideas in the attacking third, Giovinco was providing
exactly that for Parma; the side Giovinco was dumped to.
After an impressive start to his Ducali stint, the Atomic Ant was injured and missed almost three months of action. Parma went tumbling down in the league standings, and even touched rock bottom for a brief period. With Giovnco’s return however, Ducali have
been revived. Giovinco’s five goals and a hatful of assists have made all the difference.
Against Catania on the weekend Giovinco scored a gem of a free-kick; a strike that had http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Alessandro-Del-Piero-c4726 written all over it. Too bad the apprentice wasn’t where his master needed him the most; Genoa.
