Catania denied top-spot

Catania are up to second in Serie A, but they were held to a 1-1 draw at Siena. Catania travelled to Tuscany knowing victory would have taken them top - but it was not to be for Walter Zenga's men. After a goalless opening period, Emanuele Calaio headed Siena ahead from Cristiano Del Grosso's cross with just 15 minutes left. But Siena could not hang on as Catania levelled from the penalty spot through Giuseppe Mascara after Michele Paolucci was brought down by Gianluca Curci. The evening match was the Turin derby and it was Juventus who secured bragging rights over Torino with a 1-0 win. The only goal of the game came early in the second-half when Brazilian striker Amauri fired home from the edge of the box.
