Atalanta had a rough start to this game, but soon steamrollered Cesena 4-1 with Guido Marilungo’s brace.
Roma continued their fine form by conquering Bologna’s Stadio Dall’Ara with Rodrigo Taddei and Pablo Daniel Osvaldo.
Milan did the bare minimum to earn a 2-0 victory away to Cagliari thanks to an own goal and Zlatan Ibrahimovic strike.
Both Inter and Lecce can see light at the end of the tunnel after problems, but it looks too late to save one of them before Christmas.
Lazio were very fortunate to get away with a point here, as Chievo dominated and forced Albano Bizzarri into a series of saves.
Napoli ended 2011 on a high by tearing Genoa to shreds, as the 6-1 scoreline could’ve been even more damning.
Bortolo Mutti earned a dramatic point on his Palermo debut, though the 10-man Sicilians had been 2-0 up in Novara.
Parma incredibly threw away a 3-1 lead in this six-goal thriller, as Catania prove they never give up.
Both sides had great chances to break the deadlock, but the Tuscan derby between Siena and Fiorentina ended all square.
Both Udinese and Juventus had chances, but the finishing left a lot to be desired in their 0-0 draw, so Juve end 2011 as joint leaders with Milan.
