TBH, it is a bit conspicous that Canna's face was shown as the faces of all the doctors, but Crespo's and Veron's faces were hidden. Is it a coincidence that the Milan club's players are protected? Why show Canna's face but not the others? Bullshit.
Veron admits taking Neoton
by Nadia Carminati - created on 29 Apr 2005
Internazionale midfielder Juan Sebastian Veron has admitted to using the legal drug Neoton involved in the Fabio Cannavaro storm.
Cannavaro was filmed injecting the drug before Parma's Uefa Cup final win over Marseille in 1999 and Veron has confessed to using the same substance.
The images have provoked a huge reaction in Italy and an inquiry by the Italian Olympic Committee or the Football Federation (FIGC) has not been ruled out even though the images are six years old.
"I've used that medicine on a few occasions, in particular when we had many matches to play in few days," Veron told Rai tv.
"That medicine is used normally and is a licit substance.
"The doctor knew what he was giving us and should it be forbidden surely he wouldn't have given it us," he added.
"It hasn't been good seeing that video, but what is seen is stronger than what it really is."

TBH I was waiting for the players that were in the room at the time to defend Cannavaro. it would have been really ****ed up had they left him on his own.
and they only talked about Gattuso and Pancaro for a couple of days. Did anybody get the results of the blood test that Gattuso supposedly took? NO because he never took it.
Something like "This is the proof that we suck". "Look at him, I'm 25 and he's killing me." "Great, more more". "Seba(Veron) is getting injected haha".

Ancelotti Defends Cannavaro
4/29/2005 4:58:00 PM
The Milan coach came out to support Juventus defender Fabio Cannavaro following the ‘shocking’ video shown on Italian television last night.
Italian state broadcasters RAI showed a video of Cannavaro using a drip the day before the 1999 UEFA Cup Final between Parma and Marseille. However Carlo Ancelotti did not find the video as scandalous as it was depicted.
“I saw the video and surely it was not a nice scene. However, Cannavaro did something absolutely legitimate; the fact that he joked about it is another story.”
