Roma stay top after dominant start while Milan secures second victory

While Roma celebrate a flawless opening fortnight, Napoli endure a surprise defeat that hands them their first loss of the campaign. Both narratives unfolded across ten Serie A fixtures between 28 August and 31 August, shaping the early table and setting divergent tones for the clubs.

Roma’s early dominance

Roma thrashed Lecce 4‑0 on the road, scoring in the fourth minute through Daniel Maren before adding a second at 23 minutes. Matthias Suele completed the hat‑trick, and substitute Rodrigo Mora netted his first for the club after coming on. Maren’s five goals in the first two matches place him atop the league’s scoring chart.

The victory lifts Roma to the summit on goal difference, having amassed eight goals without conceding. Their attacking fluency has already produced eight goals and a clean‑sheet record, reinforcing their position as early favourites.

Winning streaks and a rare stumble

Inter secured a 1‑0 win at Cagliari, with Hakan Calhanoglu striking from outside the box after nine minutes. The defence held firm to preserve the three‑point haul, extending the defending champions’ unbeaten run.

AC Milan defeated Venezia 2‑0, with new signing Gonzalo Ramos scoring his first at San Siro in the 69th minute and an own‑goal later widening the lead. ACミランはヴェネツィアを2-0で撃破。69分に新加入ゴンサロ・ラモスがサン・シーロでの初得点を決め、終盤にはオウンゴールでリードを広げた。ルベン・アモリム新監督の下で開幕2連勝となっている。 Under Ruben Amorim, Milan have now recorded two consecutive victories.

Juventus also posted a 2‑0 triumph over Parma. Substitute Nico Gonzalez broke the deadlock in the 62nd minute, and Toon Koopmeiners added a second eight minutes later, delivering back‑to‑back clean sheets for Massimiliano Spalletti’s side.

Napoli’s campaign faltered at home, losing 1‑2 to Como. Martin Batulina opened the scoring in the 17th minute, but Rasmus Hoiland equalised before Tasos Dubikas secured the winner for the visitors. Napoli’s next fixture pits them away at Inter.

Fiorentina’s woes continued with a 0‑3 loss to newly promoted Frosinone, leaving them bottom after conceding seven goals without reply.
