    Matchday 21 Serie A TIM 2019-20 24 - 26 January 2020 BRESCIA vs MILAN Brescia have won only one of their last 19 Serie A TIM matches against AC Milan (D9 L9): 1-0 in May 2003 at Rigamonti courtesy of Stephen Appiah’s winning goal. Brescia’s Sandro Tonali is the youngest player to have provided an assist in the current Serie A TIM campaign (four for him). Theo Hernández (22 years) is the youngest AC Milan player to score five goals in his first 20 matches in a single Serie A TIM campaign since Stephan El Shaarawy in 2012/13 (19y, 358d). SPAL vs BOLOGNA Since their return to Serie A TIM in 2017/18, SPAL have never scored more than a single goal in five league matches against Bologna: two wins for both sides and a draw. Bologna have scored seven goals from corner kicks, more than any other Serie A TIM team this season (three were own-goals). Bologna’s Rodrigo Palacio has faced SPAL in four Serie A TIM matches (one goal, one assist); his goal against the Ferraresi was back in his only match played at Paolo Mazza (January 2019). FIORENTINA vs GENOA Genoa could win both matches against Fiorentina in a single Serie A TIM campaign for only the second time in their history (also 1937/38). The last Fiorentina manager to remain unbeaten in his first four Serie A TIM matches was Cesare Prandelli in 2005/06 – Giuseppe Iachini is currently on a streak of three (W2 D1). Fiorentina’s Federico Chiesa scored in the most recent Serie A TIM match (v Napoli): only in January 2017 has he netted in consecutive league games (the second game came against Genoa at Franchi).

    Established 1961 13 Sports Monday, December 4, 2017 Marsh, Paine repay Australia’s selectors with key partnership Paine’s return at the age of 32 was even more extraordinary ADELAIDE: Shaun Marsh and Tim Paine repaid the faith shown in them by Australia’s selectors and silenced their critics at least for a while as they combined for a key partner- ship in the second Ashes Test against England yesterday. The duo’s recall for the first two Tests of the series was greeted with reactions ranging from bemusement to outright abuse, with for- mer Test spinner Stuart MacGill dubbing the selectors “morons masquerading as mentors”. The selection panel, however, may be for- given for feeling a sense of vindication after Marsh scored an unbeaten 126, while Paine chipped in with a timely 57. “I haven’t thought about all the incidental noise about my selec- tion for the team,” said Marsh. “Six months ago I wasn’t sure whether I’d be back here. I’d always dreamt of getting back in. I’ve just tried to come in and feel nice and relaxed. I’ve felt good about my game the last three or four months.” SCOREBOARD Marsh and Paine came together with the match delicately balanced with Australia on ADELAIDE, Australia: Scoreboard at the close on day two in the second Ashes Test between Australia 209 for five in their first innings on the second and England in Adelaide yesterday: day at Adelaide Oval.
