Referees anger rocked Juve
Tuesday 8 February, 2005
Juventus are refusing to panic after two consecutive losses but the club have begun to question some refereeing decisions.
The Bianconeri remain top yet they have seen their lead slashed from eight points to just two in 180 minutes of football.
"We’re still first and therefore the team to beat," stated director general Luciano Moggi. "A dip can occur but I see nothing to be alarmed about."
However, Moggi, whose club are often cited as allegedly receiving favourable refereeing decisions, believes the men in black have contributed to the Scudetto chase.
"When an official is in doubt this term they simply decide to blow the whistle against us," Moggi argued.
The transfer guru then spoke specifically about the penalty incident in the Milan-Lazio match after Jaap Stam fouled Tommaso Rocchi.
Moggi believes that the Dutchman, who was booked, should have been dismissed in a game that the Rossoneri eventually won.
He said: "You all saw the pictures, why should I comment on them? I thought it was a certainty…"
Moggi has also taken a swipe at his own goalkeeper after Gigi Buffon commented on the title situation.
"Milan may technically have more than us and a better bench but we have other characteristics to win," said the No 1 from the Italian training camp.
"We need to take a bath in humility and not hope in gifts from others. We need to start playing games from the first minute."
Moggi responded: "Buffon would have been wiser to just talk about the national side.
