If you have'nt noticed yet, there is an apparent bias towards AS Roma on Newstalk's Team 33.
Mostly that has to do with our Romanista host Richard Chambers. But in fairness, they also happen to be my favourite Italian team - chosen on a lazy Sunday during Channel 4's Football Italia era.
Anyway, from the current team, midfielder Radja Nainggolan impresses me no end and this weekend his goal against Genoa brought second placed Roma within a point of league leaders Juve who dropped points at home to Genoa's city rivals Sampdoria.
I call it a goal. That description does not do Nainggolan's finish justice...
Mistake also fails to cover Fiorentina goalkeeper Neto's blushes. This masterpiece of goalkeeping occurred away at Cesena.
At least La Viola went on to win 4 - 1.
The Bundesliga is the home of one of Europe's best dead ball experts. Bayer Leverkusen's Hakan Calhanoglu is handy enough when the ball is alive and well, as this goal against Borussia Monchengladbach proves...
Atletico Madrid manager Diego Simeone gave Luciano Vietto his start in football at Argentine side Racing Club.
How does the Villarreal forward repay him? Well, by scoring the goal that condemned Los Colchoneros to a first home league defeat of 2014.
