It does not make sense. If Moggi was doing it for his own benefit so Juve should be off the hook..
While on the Milan V Udinese case let see the facts (these are the converstations in summary from what I remember):
Udinese official: "How about if our match ends in a draw so we can reach the CL"
Meani: "Why would we agree for such a thing? Whats in it for us"
Udinese official: "You want Janckolovisky and Juve wants him too. If you do this we can see that he wears your jersey next season".
Meani: "ok"
Match ended 1-1
After the match:
Udinese official: "hahahahaha Sampdoria were trying hard hoping for our match to end up with us losing"
Meani: "hahahaha it was quite funny".
Milan presents Janckolovisky.
But no that is not match fixing in the italian sporting court, now is it???
Yes, for me, you and the world it's a prove they fixed the match. Becuase Meani couldn't have fixed it if the players, Galliani and Berlusconi didn't know.
But the bad thing is that this won't pass in any court in the world.
Meani can easily say that it was just a conversation between good friends, and how he never said anything about this to the players and Galliani, and how the match ended 1:1 without being fixed. The prosecutors can't prove he said it to them because they don't have him on tape saying this to Galliani or Maldini.
Moggi can as well say that he never told anyone about the things he did, but it doesn't matter because he was the GD, and the GD is the highest representative of the club. The club will be punished for every illegal action the GD took !
This is where we're getting fucked up. It hurts and it's totally unfair Milan to get out clean after fixing a match...but we'll have to live with that !
They played unfair, but they played it very smart . We didn't !
