good result.
buffon 5 - didnt have much to do actually. that punch out wasnt good, but he only came so far out ebcause thuram was wide on the left trying to block the crosser.
zebina - 4.5 poor game compared to his recent performances. did get up much, so camo was fairly isolated. made some roma-esque mistakes.
thuram - 5.5 decent game but marred by that wayward pass to kaka who he then had to foul. but made an excellent tackle on sheva and was solid in the middle.
cannavaro - 7 very good game. that backheel tackle on sheva was
zambrotta - 6.5 very good but shouldve got forward more. when he turned pirlo and kaka outside his own box
nedved - 5 made a couple of wayard passes and never really conducted the game. made some rash tackles too, although hes the most fouled player in serie a.
emerson 4.5 - very quiet. when he had the ball he hardly ever played it forward, only square. that or he ran forward and turned around and passed back.
blasi 4 - this was supposed to be the game where he confirmed his status as a top serie a midfielder. instead he didnt get around, lost the ball a few times and was generally quiet. he shouldve been tackling seedorf and gattuso, not nedved.
camoranesi 5.5 - okay. was a bit isolated. no one was really in the box at any time. del piero was...
del piero 3.5 - well, he was playing as though he was a left full back. he forgot the forward part in the word forward. when he did get the ball, the crowd wanted him to do something so bad, but usually lost the ball. once he held the ball with a couple of turns on the corner of the milan box. crowd cheered. juve fans rose. instead of passin to camo ahead of him, he tries to do it again. fails. the stadium just groaned. whats indicative is how reluctant players were to pass to him.
zlatan 6 - was good in parts. was alone though because until zalayeta, he had no strike partner. did show his skills but where he should have someone to pass to after he does em, there was no one. the crowd like him.
zalayeta 5.5 - held the ball up well. good flick to zlatan that time and was strong.
LOL at people saying they miss lippi after a nil nil with milan. weve got trezeguet to coem back soon. olivera is THAT extra midfielder, and the defence is solid.
basically, we didnt have anyone in the box half the time. we missed trez THAT MUCH.
im the man.
