2025/03/31

It's Napoli v Inter at the top of the table as we head into the final weeks, with Atalanta's challenge well and truly snuffed-out by Fiorentina. Venezia meanwhile put in another decent performance, but fail to score one more, meaning next week's clash v Lecce becomes make or break. Plus, we look back on the two faces of Italy in their defeat against Germany, and spare a thought for Sampdoria down in Serie B (and soon to be Serie C?) Hosted on Acast.

2025/03/10

Atalanta humiliate Juve in their home to make sure the scudetto is a proper 3-way race, while Marco is very satisfied by Gytkjaer's last minute equaliser for Venezia against the dreaded Como - a result that still gives the Lagunari some hope... Plus, a tribute to the great Bruno Pizzul. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Ep 4.25 - Tight at the Top and No Goals Venezia

Rigore! - The Italian Football Podcast ·

2025/03/03

None of the top three took advantage of their fixtures to make a break for it, with one of those three, Atalanta, held at home by Venezia. Good result for the Lagunari, but the question is whether they will ever score again... Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Rigore! - The Italian Football Podcast ·

2025/02/24

2025/02/18

No Ben Yedder for Venezia means we return! But things haven't improved on the pitch for Venezia as we wonder if Di Francesco will survive as Venezia look doomed. Elsewhere, Fiorentina lose to Como (boo) and the top teams all stumble. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Ep. 4.22 - Is This The End?

Rigore! - The Italian Football Podcast ·

2025/02/10

Despite a fine victory for Fiorentina over Inter in midweek, this is a bit of a sombre episode as Marco lays out how he feels about Venezia potentially signing a convicted criminal - and why it could be the last episode for a while. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Ep. 4.21 - The January Transfers Episode

Rigore! - The Italian Football Podcast ·

2025/02/03

It was all draws for the top teams this weekend, while Fiorentina grabbed a second consecutive win. No such luck for Venezia, who lost their captain to the transfer window and their keeper to injury - but could Balotelli save the day (spoiler: probably not, but it would be fun). Hosted on Acast.

Ep. 4.20 - Farewell to the Doge?

Rigore! - The Italian Football Podcast ·

2025/01/28

Will he stay or will he go? That's the question that Marco and all Venezia fans have been asking after the shock news that the club are trying to sell the Doge of Venice himself, Joel Pohjanpalo. To make matters worse, Venezia could only draw against Verona. Elsewhere, Fiorentina got back to winning ways against Lazio, while Napoli beat Juve to make the title race too close to call.

Rigore! - The Italian Football Podcast ·

2025/01/20

This week, we try to outdo each other by discussing who has the poorer player in their team - Colpani or Candela. Plus, Atalanta lose a humdinger of a match v Napoli - is their title challenge done? And why Lazio's eagle tamer is making all the wrong headlines for Serie A around the world... Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Ep. 4.18 - The January Mercato Episode

Rigore! - The Italian Football Podcast ·

2025/01/14

Good results for teams at the bottom of the league is bad news for Venezia - but were they a bit unlucky against Inter? Napoli win despite the Kvara-going rumours, and we consider what impact that and other rumoured January transfers will have on the league Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Ep. 4.17 - The Rebalancing Episode

Rigore! - The Italian Football Podcast ·

2025/01/06

It's the halfway stage of the season and we think the results are starting to rebalance the league a little - Roma doing a bit better as we thought they would and Lazio and Fiorentina a little worse. Elsewhere, Venezia grab a point against Empoli, but was it a good or bad point? And what does the January market have in store for clubs? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Ep 4.15 - The Rigore per la Juve Episode

Rigore! - The Italian Football Podcast ·

2024/12/16

Atalanta stay top, Fiorentina's winning run ends, and Venezia nearly pull off a historic result in Turin - only for Juve to get their usual 95th minute penalty...NOTE - Initially we uploaded a version in which Giancarlo's audio was too low (some may say this was a good thing!) but we have uploaded a new version - if you can read this, you should have the new and improved version!

Ep. 4.14 - The Stormy Weather Episode

Rigore! - The Italian Football Podcast ·

2024/12/09

It's the season of the "smaller" teams as Atalanta go top, and Fiorentina and Lazio dare to dream. But down at the bottom end, Venezia and Como play out a farcical draw in stormy weather - a result that probably keeps Di Francesco his job, but doesn't really help. Hosted on Acast.

Ep. 4.13 - The One Where Marco Wishes He Was Still Sick

Rigore! - The Italian Football Podcast ·

2024/12/02

We're back after an illness-enforced absence, but things have only gotten worse for Venezia... How is Di Francesco still in a job? Elsewhere, there were frightening scenes in Florence when Edoardo Bove collapsed, but fortunately he seems to be doing a little better, while on the pitch, Napoli extended their lead at the top, while most teams at the bottom got some vital points.

Rigore! - The Italian Football Podcast ·

2024/11/11

Two points separate the top six teams (and four points separate the bottom 8) - is this the most exciting start ever? Well, not if you're a Venezia fan as they gift more ridiculous goals to their opponents. But there is more to celebrate for Giancarlo as Fiorentina continue to fly high. Hosted on Acast.

Ep. 4.11 - The We Wuz Robbed Episode

Rigore! - The Italian Football Podcast ·

2024/11/04

What is more predictable in Italian football than a small team getting a goal chopped off v a big team in the last minute... we recorded this in the moments after Venezia's equaliser was cruelly ruled out against Inter. Elsewhere, Atalanta thump Napoli in Naples, and Fiorentina's hot streak continues. Is the title race as open as it seems? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Ep. 4.10 - The Goals Goals Goals Episode

Rigore! - The Italian Football Podcast ·

Serie A went goal crazy this weekend, with Giancarlo's own Fiorentina handing out a 5 goal thumping to Roma, Inter and Juve sharing just the 8 goals, and even Venezia and Monza sharing 4 goals in a 2-2 draw. Where does that leave things? Giancarlo is on cloud nine, but Marco sees some small signs of hope for Venezia... Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
