Thats just bitterness and jealousy talking...we were better for half of the season...and all you really did in the second half of the season was beat the small teams while we tied them. We beat you in the encounter. We played in Coppa Italia finals, CL semis all 7 days apart. We made it by last minute goals as you did. If you now about Serie A and derbies you know what its like to play your city Rival ... imagine in the CL semi. We outplayed you in the final...scored a goal...and your keeper had to make God like dives to stop us from scoring. You had to switch your D because Sheva was making holes around your D. Don't be naive and use that arguement but its starting to stink like a dead RAT. That lucky theory is your denial at work.
Ii dont agree with Oded (Edgar Davids)... I think that Juve was not superior to Milan at all, but neither was Milan. only PKs coudl seperate us. The SuperCoppa Italiana final also backs this argument because even then, both teams were even. Also, each time juve and milan played in the serie a, the home team won 2-1. sounds pretty balanced to me.
Milan played very well for most of the season, but dont forget juve's big victories against Mighty Madrid and away to Barca who had a perfect record in the CL. We both had great seasons.
Also, I still dont see how most the Milan fans say that they outplayed juve in the CL Final. get real!! you act as if juve didn't attack. whether you milan fans admit it or not, you're also forgetting that you didn't play juve at its best in the final. Nedved Didn't play and Tudor came out with an early injury that screwed things up. I'm not making excuses, but you use the Champions league Final as an argument to suggest that Milan were superior to juve overall for the whole season. how can you be "superior" when you couldn't even beat a below-strength juve (keep in mind that i'm not suggesting juve are superior).
It's not like there was a huge difference in posession anyway...it's not like we didn't have chances to score. (Conte's header that hit the post! )
I agree, Milan did deserve the Final, but if juve scored more penalties and won, I would also say that Juve deserved it.
you argue that milan didn't score because Buffon saved our ass!! That's not an argument at all. It's Buffon's job to save those shots. that's why we paid Millions for him. It's as dumb as us saying that juve couldn't score vs. Milan because of milan's defense!!
About playing in serie A, Coppa Italia, and CL. playing a couple more games in the coppa didn't make much difference. you sent out youngesters anyway.
Neither juve fans nor milan fans have the right to say they were superior. both teams were (and IMO still are) are on the same level.
