Summary

Golazzo delves into the darker side of Serie A this week as Jimbo, James Horncastle and Gab Marcotti look at the life and times of Luciano Moggi. The scout turned stablemaster was at the heart of the Calciopoli scandal, alleged to involve match-fixing, a scandal that led to two titles being taken away from Juventus. Is Moggi one of Italian football’s legendary villains? Or is he merely the face of a much wider problem in Serie A at that time? Right now in Serie A, it’s a titanic race for the top 4 but is time almost up for Luciano Spalletti at Inter? RUNNING ORDER: • PART 1a: Moggi’s beginnings as a scout at Juventus (00m 45s) • PART 1b: Moggi’s time at Torino, Napoli, Roma and Lazio – the building of his network (05m 30s) • PART 2a: Moggi returns to Juventus as general manager – La Cupola (13m 00s) • PART 2b: Moggi undone by wire taps (23m 00s) • PART 3a: Juve try to rebuild and clean up their image (27m 30s) • PART 3b: The aftermath for Moggi (30m 00s) • PART 3c: Moggi’s side of the story (32m 00s) • PART 4: Serie A round-up – Juve wobble while Inter are under pressure (35m 30s) GET IN TOUCH: • find us on Facebook, where you’ll find video, photos and loads of other stuff. • send us a tweet: @theTotallyShow • for sales and advertising email [email protected] Learn more about your ad choices.
