| MILAN, Italy -- Fiorentina was held to a 1-1 draw at home Sunday after a late Cagliari equalizer ended its perfect start to the Serie A season. Custom Baseball Jerseys . Vincenzo Montellas team dominated but failed to make the most of its opportunities. It eventually took the lead in the 71st minute when Giuseppe Rossi nodded Alberto Aquilanis cross on for Borja Valero to head home. Fiorentina looked set to clinch a third straight victory but Mauricio Pinilla headed Victor Ibarbos cross in off the inside of the post in the final minute. Matters grew worse for Fiorentina when David Pizarro was sent off in stoppage time for a comment he made to the referee after Rossi was denied a penalty. "Since Ive been in management I have tried not to comment on refereeing decisions, but I feel the need to say something now," Montella said. "Ill accept a mistake on the pitch, but I dont accept the fact that theres no consistency in judging incidents, you see pictures of players clearly insulting the referee and they dont get punished. "There needs to be uniformity, or you lose credibility. Lets not talk about conspiracies because Im not saying or thinking that, but we cant accept certain situations after going through them last season too." Fiorentina also had star players Mario Gomez and Juan Cuadrado forced off with injuries. Gomez, who was signed from Bayern Munich in the off-season, has sprained his knee with ligament damage and could be out for up to six weeks. Fiorentina is two points behind Napoli, which still has a perfect record after a 2-0 victory over Atalanta on Saturday. Roma could join last years runner up at the top of the standings if it wins at Parma Monday. Genoa picked up its first points of the season with a 3-0 win at city rival Sampdoria in the Derby della Lanterna on Sunday night. There had been a bizarre buildup to the match with Sampdoria catching a Genoa youth team coach in full camouflage gear hiding in the bushes to spy on a training session. Luca Antonini was making his debut after signing from Milan and he got his Genoa career off to the perfect start by volleying home Davide Biondinis cross from 15 yards in the ninth minute. It was the defenders fifth goal in 149 Serie A appearances. Emanuele Calaio also scored on his debut, doubling Genoas lead five minutes after halftime when he fired in Sime Vrsaljkos cross. It was another new signing who sealed the points as Francesco Lodi curled one of his trademark free kicks into the top left corner in the 66th minute. That goal sparked scenes of jubilation on the Genoa bench and coach Fabio Liverani raced onto the pitch to hug the players. "After two straight defeats, many difficulties and then a derby like this, at the 3-0 we all released some of that pent up tension," Liverani said after his first ever Serie A win. "I dont think these scenes will be repeated ever again." In the afternoon matches, a clinical Lazio cruised to a 3-0 victory over Chievo Verona, with all its goals coming in the first half. Antonio Candreva got the home side off to the perfect start when his effort was deflected past Chievo goalkeeper Christian Puggioni in the eighth minute following a counter. Lazio doubled its lead against the run of play in the 38th minute. Puggioni flapped at Cristian Ledesmas cross and Luis Pedro Cavanda volleyed it in from a tight angle for his first Serie A goal. Senad Lulic all but sealed the result three minutes later, drilling home Eddy Onazis through ball. Udinese captain Antonio Di Natale snatched a point for his side as a late goal on his 300th appearance for the club secured a 1-1 draw against Bologna. Alessandro Diamanti had given Bologna the lead in the 71st minute with a stunning free kick into the top corner but Di Natale volleyed home Luis Muriels pass five minutes from time. Sassuolo remains pointless after wasting an astonishing number of chances in a 2-0 loss at fellow promoted side Hellas Verona. Raphael Martinho and Romulo scored for Verona, which beat AC Milan on the opening day of the season. The other promoted side, Livorno, beat Catania 2-0 with a second-half brace from Paulinho. Catania is also still to pick up a point. Custom Nike Baseball Jerseys China .com) - The Kansas City Chiefs activated linebacker Joe Mays from short-term injured reserve on Saturday.

SALT LAKE CITY -- When Dirk Nowitzki was shipped to Dallas in a surprise trade before his rookie season, it seemed like a major gamble for a franchise that had endured a stretch of several rough seasons. That little deal worked out in a big way for the Mavericks. Nowitzki had 21 points Tuesday night to pass Oscar Robertson for 10th on the NBAs career scoring list, leading the Mavs to a 95-83 victory over the Utah Jazz.

I knew how many points I needed, but I wasnt trying to think about it. I was just trying to think about the next shot and how I can get open." Dallas coach Rick Carlisle has spent 30 years in the NBA as a coach or player. Seeing Nowitzki join the top 10 NBA scorers is one of the few times he has been in awe of an accomplishment. "Hes an original. He is a generational player," Carlisle said. "Now most teams start a stretch four. Hes changed the game in so many ways. The kind of humility and dignity he does it with, it leaves you standing there in awe." Derrick Favors scored 19 points for the Jazz (24-54), who lost for the 18th time in their last 21 games. Reserve Enes Kanter added 15 points and 19 rebounds, and Richard Jefferson had 15 points. The Jazz outrebounded the Mavericks 47-36. They also enjoyed a 52-34 advantage in points in the paint and a 22-7 edge in second-chance points.

It helped Dallas grab control before the quarter was done. "They didnt seem like they were missing any shots in the first quarter," Jazz coach Tyrone Corbin said. "After that, we did a better job of staying closer to them." Samuel Dalembert made back-to-back baskets to tie the game and the Mavericks claimed a 20-18 lead on a Shawn Marion layup with 5:01 left. Dallas eventually made 16 straight baskets before finally missing a second shot. Wayne Ellington had a jumper on first possession of the second quarter, giving the Mavericks a 41-26 lead. "They just made shots," Jazz point guard Trey Burke said. "I dont think we just played awful defence. They hit open shots. Dirk hit shots. We expected him to make some tough shots, but they shot 94 per cent in the first quarter. I dont think it was a lot on our defence. They just made shots tonight." The Mavs never really cooled down before halftime. Dallas shot 70.3 per cent (26 of 37) from the field in the first half, preventing the Jazz from mounting any sort of big rally. Utah closed to 52-40 after Kanter made back-to-back baskets. Marion then scored on an alley-oop jam to stop the run.
