Juventus Continued at the Top

With goals in the second part, the Uruguayan defender Martin Caceres (72) and Argentine striker David Trezeguet (90 +3), the Juve beat 2-0 at Lazio (4th) in Rome's Olympic Stadium, now in the third day of Italian football, and leads the overall standings.

Three victories in as many games and therefore the leadership of Serie A, is a perfect balance for Juventus, who on Tuesday made his debut as host of the French champions Bordeaux in the Champions League clubs in Europe.

The only fact bleak for the "Vecchia Signora" was out with an injury in the right thigh of Brazilian playmaker Diego (45), who has become indispensable in only two months on the computer, and is now doubtful for the match Europe on Tuesday.

With just two weeks to have success this season thanks to a double from Brazilian former player from Werder Bremen to a 3-1 victory against Roma, one of the reinforcements recruited during the summer (northern hemisphere), the Uruguayan Caceres, seconded loan from FC Barcelona, opened the way to victory against Lazio with a shot from afar (72).

Since the game in injury time, Trezeguet nets sent a ball by goalie host rejected after header from Brazilian Amauri (45 +3).

With this result, the "Bianconeri" cut off the winning streak of Lazio in the first two days, which was very dangerous in those two games but he struck a fierce and disciplined defense.

Milan, meanwhile, tied goalless at home displacement of promoted Livorno (14th), first thing, and down from the top group, was eighth on an interim basis.

The 'Rossoneri' have now 4 points from three matches while the head group is composed of four teams with 9 and 6 units, three with two games played (Juve, Sampdoria, Genoa and Lazio).

Bereft of ideas and rhythm, the Lombards gave a poor image, as the owner Ronaldinho, who left his post to Andrea Pirlo. A result of concern for the match in Marseille for the Champions League next week.

"Both times were developed differently. The first suffer and Livorno played well. After the break things got better for us, we create more game and held our opponents to attack," was formed Rossoneri coach, Brazilian Leonardo .

Jeff Garcia Out of Oakland Raiders this Season

Jeff Garcia signed with the Oakland Raiders offseason, the team wanted to put pressure on JaMarcus Russell (first overall pick 2007) and similarly provide a mentor that could boost their performance in the regular season.

The pre-season comes to an end, with this finally can decide to announce the casualties of players on each team, and from among 22 names that are forced to leave Oakland, Jeff Garcia is definitely the most surprising to fans and players in the NFL. Moreover when the only means that players will support Russell Bruce Gradkowski and Charlie Frye, quarterbacks who have not played a single regular season game with the Raiders.

Garcia, a quarterback for 39 years with 116 career starts and 10 seasons of experience, signed a one-year contract with the Oakland Raiders last April making their displeasure known by becoming a player in reserve, which could be an important factor the decision taken by the team.

"We talked in the beginning of how it might fit into the team, but the best way to address this issue is saying that the other two players played very well and they are committed to serve as support for JaMarcus Russell." Said Tom Cable, coach the Raiders. "If Garcia did not feel comfortable taking a role as a reserve, is no longer part of it."

Garcia missed two weeks of training camp because of an injury and sat out the first preseason game with the Raiders, the numbers fell into his quarterback active weeks were not what the coach expected, now the state of Garcia at NFL, at 39 years of age, is highly questionable.
