Milan 1 - Juventus 1


Milan tied Juventus 1-1 today, pretty much ending whatever incredibly remote chance there was that they could catch Inter and win this year's Scudetto.  The tie also means that Juventus still have their own (remote) chance of catching Milan for second place in Serie A.  Seedorf scored for Milan early in the second half, but then Iaquinta tied it up only a couple of minutes later.  The most important statistics are these, however:
  • Number of loud explosions set off by the fans during the match: 6.
  • Numbers of times Inzaghi was whistled for being offside: 4
