Serie A Chronicles

Paul Pogba was given a first start of the season, but was left devastated after he suffered a season-ending injury in Juventus' win over Cremonese, while Federico Chiesa was back to playing something like the player we've come to know him for.

And Fabio Quagliarella sent a heartfelt message to Sampdoria fans after the club was mathematically relegated to Serie B.

Milan's players and manager Stefano Pioli endured a confrontation with the Capo Ultra after losing away at Spezia, in a scene reminiscent of naughty schoolboys being admonished by the Headmaster.

Is Pioli at risk of losing his job if Milan fail to make the top 4?

Has Inter been underestimated this season, or are they capable of blowing their 2-0 lead over Milan in the Champions League semi final?

Lazio's form continues to fall away, repeating Maurizio Sarri's end of season slump pattern.

Fiorentina continues its topsy-turvy season after a home leg loss in the Conference Leage semi final followed by a win against Udinese.

Monza defeated Napoli, who have embarked on their relaxing celebration tour of Italy.

And it was peak Jose Mourinho as Roma played out a dull goalless draw at Bologna, while giving space to the kids ahead of a crucial Europa League semi final return leg at Bayer Leverkusen.

Nicky Bandini has plenty to talk about in this recording from a hotel in Milan after attending the Champions League Semi Final 1st Leg at the Stadio Giuseppe Meazza (a.ka. San Siro) in which Inter took control of the tie against Milan early on with a dominant performance straight out of the gate, and got themselves a foot in the final.

Nicky Bandini and Mina Rzouki recap the incredible scenes in Naples and at the Stadio Diego Maradona as the city celebrated Napoli's amazing Scudetto triumph.

Roma and Lazio are trailing off toward the end of the season, both suffering losses to the Milan clubs.

Rafael Leão is in doubt for this week's Champions League semi final 1st leg for Milan against Inter after leaving the match with Lazio with a thigh injury. But have we seen Inter's true form going into the tie, after beating Roma, who, in turn, have their own injury worries ahead of a Europa League semi final.

And a first goal for Samuel Iling-Junior in Juventus' win at Atalanta, which included unsavoury scenes as Dušan Vlahović was racially abused by the home fans.

In this monthly full free episode of Serie A Chronicles with Mina Rzouki and Nicky Bandini:

We start today's episode with something a bit different: A discussion about safety in and around football stadiums, especially as a woman working in football journalism and broadcasting.

The crazy political decision to postpone the Napoli v Salernitana match until after the Inter v Lazio match in order to make for a more special celebration in Naples.

But, alas... Napoli bottled their moment in the Neapolitan sun with the whole city poised for celebration, forcing the prosecco to remain in the cooler for now, while Salernitana showed up and showed why the coverage of the match in the lead up was a bit disrespectful toward them, with an emphatic equalising goal from Boulaye Dia which spoiled the party.

And the question on many observers' lips... has Khvicha Kvaratskhelia been found out?

Inter gave a 2nd half performance against Lazio which we've been waiting for, with Romelu Lukaku shining as a playmaker.

A stoic Roma struggling with an injury-depleted squad, as Milan takes the upper hand in their direct battle for a Champions League spot after a late 1-1 draw at the Olimpico.

Who are we currently leaning toward in the upcoming Champions League semi final between Inter and Milan?

And is Federico Chiesa unhappy at Juventus? Mina has some more information after recent reports have surfaced.

This week we have a lot packed in to the show:

Napoli defeated Juventus with a last-gasp Giacomo Raspadori volley which felt similar to scenes from 5 years ago.

Victor Osimhen... will he stay or will he go?

A recap on Juventus' 15 point penalty being revoked... for now (and don't miss Nicky's voice note on the situation).

The scrum to finish in the top 4 to secure a Champions League place. Can Serie A get more than 4 clubs in to next season's competition?

Will Rafael Leão be heading to Chelsea?

Monza staged an impressive comeback win against Fiorentina after being two goals down early.

Relegation discussion: Sampdoria and Cremonese look doomed, but which will be the third club joining them in Serie B?

And we want your opinion: In European competition, are pragamatic managers like Max Allegri and José Mourinho old fashioned and is expansive football really the way to succeed, or are their methods on the right track?

Get your thoughts in to us via Patreon, the website or social media, and Mina will record a voice note to read out your messages and respond.

In this Chronicles Tifosi Patreon members-only episode preview:

Nicky Bandini on an excellent quarter final stage for Serie A's clubs in European competitions as Roma and Juventus progressed to the Europa League semi finals, with some Jose Mourinho theatrics in Rome, Fiorentina go on to the Conference League semi, albeit giving themselves a scare, and Inter did enough to ensure that we'll get a Milan derby in the Champions League semi.

As well as Juventus being handed back its 15 point penalty in the league, which sees them move from 7th to 3rd in the table, but of course, this is Italy, so the drama is not quite over yet!

Don't miss Mina Rzouki's voice note on the Napoli v Milan match.
