On Matchday 30 of Italy's biggest clubs, ALVISE CAGNAZZO: On Weekend 30 of the Serie A season, it was a frustrating weekend for some of Italy's top teams. Napoli, AC Milan, and Inter Milan were among those keeping an eye on the second leg of their Champions League quarter-finals this week, which may have resulted in points deferred. Rivals Roma and Lazio, on the other hand, lifted their hopes of Champions League qualification by 3-0 victories over Udinese and Spezia respectively. Alvise Cagnazzo of Mail Sport has dissected the weekend's events and taken a closer look at ten things we learned from the Italian top flight.

ALVISE CAGNAZZO IN ITALY: It was another action-packed weekend in Italy as Serie A saw many more twists and turns. Napoli lost just their second league match of the season against Lazio on Friday night, while Roma displaced AC Milan in the top four positions after Jose Mourinho's side defeated Juventus. Sportsmail delves into Serie A's weekend action, offering you ten things we learned.

The tumultuous 86-year-old, who now owns Monza's Serie A side, shockingly told the guests at their Christmas party last month that they would have a 'bus full of wh**es' if they defeat AC Milan or Juventus this season (left). And the newly promoted side did just did that, causing one of the biggest upsets of the Italian top-flight campaign so far by defeating Max Allegri's side on their own patch (inset). Following a 15-point deduction involving an investigation into the club's transfer dealings, Patrick Ciurria and Dany Mota Carvalho scored both goals in the win to leave Juventus languishing in 13th - two places below Monza. Berlusconi acknowledged the fact that as a reward had already been given, but the Serie A club's social media team posted a portrait of a Monza coach (right), ridiculing the situation.

Max Allegri has warned his Juventus team that they now need points to ensure their Serie A safety this season. Following their points deferral last week, Juventus has gone from chasing Champions League spots to looking over their shoulders at the relegation places. The Bianconeri were docked 15 points by the FIGC after the club was found guilty of artificially inflating transfer fees in order to raise their capital gains and help balance the club's books.

After losing 2-0 to mid-table Monza, Juventus fell even further down the Serie A table on Sunday. Patrick Ciurria started the scoring with an impressive finish from inside, before Danny Mota Carvalho rounded Wojciech Szczesny to double the lead. Juve has dropped to 13th place after a recent points penalty, while Monza is in 11th.
