What a great result. Great to see our captain really show up for a big game. I thought his performance, as well as Camoranesi's, was masterful. Any news on Camo's injury? We'll need him for the run-in as there are still 9 points on the table and NOTHING is decided.

Come on now, Juve for the Scudetto and Milan for the European Cup.

Am I the only one here who thinks that Milan got screwed??

Don't get me wrong, I'm happy with the result, especially because Juve played very well, especially our Captain, but come on.

Zambrotta's pulldown of Cafu in the Box?
Cannavaro blocking that shot inside the box with his arm??


Juve for the Scudetto, Milan for the Champions League

Sergio, I don't think you can call anything in the arm block as intentional, as it was a cannon shot that canna knew nothing about.

Cafu's shirt was pulled in the box late in the match, but I figure that if Collina the thief (who lives to rob from Juve) didn't think there was a foul, then there must not have been. The thief did manage to award 6 minutes of stoppages after initially calling for 4, without any additional stoppages during those 4 minutes, so what about that?

Zambrotta's shirt tug wasnt enough for a penalty IMO, Cafu just made it look good, he's abviously been taking acting lessons from Pippo. The pulling was there, and perhapse it would have been a penalty had he tried to stay on his feet, but IMO the way he fell was a dive.

AS for Canna, you'll se that the ball actually hit his body before his arm, and it didnt hit his hand, it hit his arm just above the armpit. It was unvolountary, and IMO not enough for a penalty.

And how about Pippo hitting Thuram, and 6 minutes of injury time?

Well, I can't see how holding a shirt that deliberatley hinders a players progress not be called a foul, but I digress.

As far as the extra minutes, hell, maybe it was some sort of a makeup call. Can't say for sure. That match wasn't officiated very well at all.

Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm checking out that Italian chicks' legs on 90 Minuto. I really can't be bothered right now.

I think the reffereeing was fair.

Next game Zlatan will be back and Mutu will be able to play the game after. It seems that things are only getting better.

Yeah and if they win the Champions League, then all this smack talk is a moot point.

I'd take a CL trophy over 5 scudetti any day of the week.
