Ultras are intimidating people by nature. Ultras who are already in prison are even more intimidating than regular ultras. Therefore, this group of AS Roma fans is really intimidating.
It's time for the traditional video of the Regin Coeli prison in Trastevere cheering Roma's win #DerbydellaCapitale https://t.co/OomPWN7Ukl
With only a handful of games remaining across the top divisions in England, Spain, Germany and Italy, clear title favorites are beginning to emerge while pretenders are falling by the wayside. With the finest of margins separating this season’s elite, predicting the title winners in Europe’s top four leagues remains a tricky process.
Andrea Pirlo is a man of many talents. The Italian New York City FC midfielder can put a soccer ball wherever he wants. He always knows where the other team's free kicks are going. He has won the Champions League, the 2006 World Cup (he was man of the match in the final), and Serie A Player of the Year (three times).
He is...the most interesting man in the world.
Let's check in on our young friend Pietro Tomaselli, shall we?
The hype machine cranked up when Roma signed the then-nine years old Belgian prodigy (we are obligated as members of the media to refer to him as a "Belgian prodigy" at least once per article) and then it cranked even more when a video surfaced in September of Tomaselli enjoying a nice game of keepy-uppy.
One of those players is still with AS Roma. The other is Ashley Cole.
Gigi Buffon has broken the record for consecutive minutes without conceding a goal in Serie A.
ALL-TIME RECORD! @gianluigibuffon has now gone the longest without conceding in Serie A. #NumeroUno #Legendhttps://t.co/iONLdmrVkj
Chance he goes to Manchester United: 9%
Ladies and gentlemen, the fabulous Higuain brothers.
Gonzalo, 28, is enjoying something of a career renaissance. The Napoli striker has 26 goals in Serie A so far this season, twice as many as the next-best scorer. Napoli are within striking distance of Juventus at the top of the Serie A table.
Some of these highlights are just absurd.
Stephan El Shaarawy's goal in the 5th minute was simply stunning. He collected the ball in the midfield, dribbled at the goal and unleashed a curling shot that beat Empoli keeper, Lukasz Skorupski. El Shaarawy would add another in the 74th minute as Roma would go on to win 3 - 1.
The man who mugged Napoli forward Lorenzo Insigne this weekend had one of the more interesting requests we've heard about from a mugger (we used to be a crime reporter, so this statement is made with at least some authority).
The thief – who made off with €800 in cash, a Rolex and some jewels – had one very peculiar request for Insigne: dedicate a goal to him, the mugger, against Fiorentina on Monday.
The18 loves to bring the most exciting players on the planet to our audience, and Paul Pogba is nothing if not one of them. We have been following him for quite some time, as he transitions from a young player looking to establish himself to one of the best XI players in the world. Check out our little homage, 18 Seconds of Pogba:
