Alex stood on the balcony of his office, sipping an espresso. He looked at the league table pinned to the wall.

Serie A Table:

Como 1907 - 78 pts

Inter Milan - 76 pts

Juventus - 74 pts

AC Milan - 70 pts

Two games left. Two points clear.

Mark burst into the room. He was wearing a headband that said CHAMPION LOADING... and holding a stopwatch.

"IT GETS LONELY!" Mark argued. "IT NEEDS A HOME! MY SHELF IS READY!"

"We have to win first," Alex said. "Lazio away. Then Verona at home."

"Lazio," Mark shuddered. "The Eagles. They have big beaks."

"They have Immobile," Alex corrected. "And Luis Alberto. They are dangerous."

Rome. The Stadio Olimpico.
