A good news! Baggio is fit to play in the Italian Cup match against Bologna, and he may be playing for the whole 90 minutes.

A mistake correction, Vieri didn't play the match against Reggina, thanks to Montreal for telling me about this. Sorry because I'm just back to Hong Kong, at the moment I don't have much time to take care about everything. But this Baggio's World will still be filled with updated Baggio news!

Inter Milan beat the host Reggina 1-0, Vieri and Zamorano partnered up front, but the the winning goal was scored by Recoba. Baggio didn't involve because of injury.

According to Inter official site, Baggio's ability to play in Sunday's match against Reggina is still in doubt. Hope he can recover from injury as soon as possible......

Inter Milan 6-0 Lecce. Baggio and Vieri were not even in the bench because of injury.

Originally yesterday's training was to try Baggio, to see if he's ok or not. Before the training the situation was optimal, but Inter official site reported that Inter would be without Roby in today's match, which is really a bad news......

According to Inter Milan official web site, Baggio will be able to play in Sunday's match against Lecce. But we have to wait until the match begins in order to know whether he is in the starting line-up or not.

Inter Milan played a friendly and beat Pavia with a score of 6-1, Zamorano scored 3 goals, while Baggio didn't take part in the game.

According to the web site Italian Soccer, Lippi said that Baggio didn't play much was not because of tactic choice, the cause was his injury. He then said for sure that Roby would have more chances to play from now on.

Yesterday Inter played a friendly match with Tunisia at the San Siro Stadium, Baggio played the whole match and scored 1 goal as Inter beat the visitor 3-1. The other 2 goals were scored by Jugovic and Moriero.

On the other hand, the no-Roby Italian National team lost at home once again. The score was 1-1 before the Italians conceded 2 goals in the final 20 minutes, which gave the visitors Belgium a surprise win.

Here is a picture from Inter Milan official web site, this is taken during the match between Bologna and Inter, and it's the only one that I can find Baggio in it, but too bad that it doesn't show Roby clearly, he's the one in front of Bologna number 8.

Italian national team will play a friendly against Belgium this Saturday. Baggio is not included in the squad as expected. While his Inter teammate Vieri is out because of injury, goalkeeper Peruzzi and right-wing Moriero both are out as well. But defender Panucci and midfielder Di Biagio are included in Zoff's 21-man squad.

After playing Bologna, Inter now have 14 points and are in the 6th place in Serie A. This result is the same as the one at the same time last season. The coach at that time, Simoni, was under criticism. Now Lippi should think in the following 2 weeks, and put Baggio into the starting line-up when Inter meet Lecce at home 2 weeks from now, Vieri should be available, a win is not a hard job then.

Baggio finally had a chance to play, he substituted Jugovic in the 58th minute. However, Inter were beaten by the home team Bologna with a score of 0-3.

This picture was sent to me by Cesar Failla, the person next to Baggio is him. Thanks to Cesar Failla!
Today Inter Milan will travel to Bologna. Since Vieri is injuried, Ronaldo and Zamorano will be the strikers.
Will Baggio start the match in the bench again? If unfortunately this is so, will he have the chance to play?

The picture to the left was taken during Jomo Cup '99, by Masahide Tomikoshi from Japan. The main character in the picture is Japanese player number 8 Tsuyoshi Kitazawa, but in the background, Baggio is looking at him, this makes the picture meaningful, because Kitazawa's favourite soccer player is Baggio. In here I would like to thank Masahide Tomikoshi for his consent! To go to his homepage, click here.

News about Roby, the friendly match between Inter and Saronno ended up with a score of 3-2, Inter won. Baggio played the whole match, but didn't have goal. According to Corriere della Sera, Baggio said after the match that he didn't intend to leave Inter, although it seems that Lippi has in his mind who to be in the starting line-up already.
