Here is the Italy Serie Week 22  Roundup  valid for Matchday 22 on  Sunday 5 February 2012.  Italy's bad weather including snow and low temperature affecting the schedule of the games.  The match scheduled on Saturday 4, Cesena v Catania was postponed for the bad weather.   I will say the highlight of the round was the "grand style" victory from AS Roma crushing Inter at the Olimpico di Roma with four goals without conceding any.  It was the return to the Olimpico from the ex Roma coach Claudio Ranieri, and boy, what a result!
   .
Leaders of the Serie A are Juventus with 45 points with a positive goal difference of +20. Juventus unable to win at the Juventus Arena with AC Siena ending with a goalless draw AC Milan are one point behind Juventus in the  second position with 44 points and a positive goal difference of +24.  Milan playing with 10 men since the 64th minute when Referee Rizzoli gave a red card to forward Zlatan Ibrahimovic for fighting.

 It's the battle for the second position, another defeat for Milan and provided that Juventus win their pending game with Parma, then, the Scudetto might have written the name "Juventus."  Udinese wasting the chance to shorten the distance losing at the Artemio Franchi against Fiorentina despite opening the score with forward Antonio Di Natale in the 14th minute


Up to Round 22 most  scored goals:  AC Milan with 43 goals
Up to Round 22 worst defense: Novara conceding 42  goals.
Top scorer  up to Round 22 is Udinese forward Antonio Di Natale with 16 goals
