Milan head to Parma where things continue to gradually improve. Milan NEED a win if they want to keep pace with Juventus. I see Milan winning this match.....2-1. Sheva and Kaka will both net goals for the Red & Black.
Why doesn't Calcio/Serie A do something about the flares? It wastes time waiting for the smoke to clear. Start banning people for a year or more if they are caught bringing flares to the stadium! So far, very wet/rainy conditions in Parma.....0-0
In a hell of a game Pirlo knocks in the winning effort. 1-2 Milan! After a Gilardino goal, Kaka equalized, and Pirlo's last minute strike won the game.
This comeback keeps our scudetto hopes alive momentarily. But I gotta criticize Ancelotti for starting Pancaro again. I thought Kaladze finally won his position back but Carlo decides to go back to Pancaro, who was awful today. He didn't complete one cross, he was caught upfield many times, he was beaten consistently down his flank(90% of Parma's attacks were down Pancaro's flank), his foul set up the Parma goal, of which it was his bad marking that let Gilardino score. PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE play Kaladze from now on! Pancaro is worthless.
Three points grabbed. Although Parma gave a scare but thanks to Kaká and Trilly we won the all important clash. I think Crespo was very un effective once again (no more lucky golas) once he was substituted and Tomo came in we did very well (reminded me of Lazio at Olympico) Sheva had a disappointing night too. But all what matters is three points. Lets see what favour can Lazio do to us tonight. We are a single point behind Juve and if Lazio make them a point or three point (drop) we sure will again be fav to finish it as no # 1 before the winter holidays. All it means now is Juve x Milan game at San Siro will take a centre stage. Keep the faith... FORZA MAGICO MILAN!
Great win. 2 goals in 7 minutes when it seemed all over makes it even sweeter. Bad news: JDT out till January after he clashed with Frey.
Milan got a hard fought win here, but that is what makes them a champion caliber side. If Lazio would have finished off Juve, the top would be seperated by 1 pt. Great put back by Kaka! Man, i love that guy. Both clubs played tough in unpleasant conditions.
