Five discussion points of the weekend of series A

MILAN (Reuters) – The leaders of Juventus have made the minimum necessary to impose 1-0 in Bologna in Serie A this weekend. The VAR system was again in the center of attention after the Fiorentina drew 3-3 at home against Inter Milan, thanks to a contentious penalty in the 101st minute.

Here are five discussion points of the weekend:

TIME TO GIVE REST TO RONALDO?

The entire Juventus team looked tired, probably thinking of the Champions League, in their 1-0 win over Bologna, and nothing more than Cristiano Ronaldo.

The 34-year-old, who was playing his 33rd game of the season, had only a real chance and made a counterattack in a counter-attack as Bologna tried desperately to tie the game.

Coach Mbadimiliano Allegri rotated the team but Ronaldo was almost always present. He started in 24 of his 25 league games and was eliminated once, although Juve already has many successes.

Ronaldo missed a game of the Champions League due to a suspension.

"It was probably the worst CR7 of the season, tired physically and in the spirit," said Gazzetta dello Sport.

Beaten 2-0 at Atletico Madrid in the round of 32 first leg of the Champions League on Wednesday, Juventus should make a comeback in March. 12

INTER SMOKE AFTER CONCÉDING 101 EQUALIZER MINUTE

The equalizer in the 101st minute of the Fiorentina against Inter Milan, scored on the score of 3-3, following a penalty inflicted after a lengthy consultation of the VAR, was one of the most controversial so far with the help of recently introduced technology.

The kick was given in the sixth minute of the time off after Federico Chiesa's shot hit Danilo Ambrosio at close range.

The referee immediately inflicted a penalty, but then decided to review the incident on the field monitor after a "silent control" of the video badistant.

However, the reruns have done little to clarify things; From an angle, it seemed obvious that the bullet was hitting D Ambrosio's chest. But from one side to the other, it was suggested that he had actually touched her arm.

After almost five minutes late, the referee pointed to the place – the annoying coach of Inter, Luciano Spalletti.

"We were certain that it was not a handball, we all saw it, even with the help of the referee monitor," Spalletti said. "We were 10 to look at him.This clearly touched his chest, Danilo did not touch him at all with his arm.It is clear for everyone to see him."

NAPOLI IN FULL FLOW AGAINST PARMA

Napoli, second, was dropped after losing the lead this season, but her 4-0 win in Parma showed that no other Serie A team can compete with her in terms of entertainment when she is in top form .

Even with Lorenzo Insigne suspended, they were far too strong for hosts like Arkadiusz Milik, Dries Mertens, Piotr Zielinski, Allan and Jose Callejon concatenating the pbades.

ANCELOTTI DEFEATED BY THE POOR PRESENT AT HOME

Before the match, Naples coach Carlo Ancelotti admitted to being disappointed by the poor attendance of his team, but realized that he could understand why supporters were reluctant to go to the San Paolo stadium.

The land belonging to the municipality is widely recognized as requiring modernization.

"We would like to have more supporters in the stadium, maybe we would have had a few more points, maybe we could have beaten Turin and Chievo," he told the Il Napolista website.

"I must also say that the stadium is what it is." To be honest, if I was a fan of Napoli, I would not really go in. It's embarrbading for a variety of reasons. "

PARMA

Having reached a sixth place, the promoted Parma are now in freefall. They have lost their last four home games and dropped to 13th place in the standings, although they still have eleven points ahead of the danger zone.

"We have to find the right path," said coach Roberto D & Aversa. "I hope this defeat will allow us to face the next game in the best possible way, trying to concede little."
