Match report: Milan 1 - Marseille 1
- Goals scored: Borriello 10', Lucho Gonzalez 16'
- What happened: Both sides looked like they were trying to lose the match on purpose. Defenders failed to defend; midfielders turned the ball over; attackers missed wide open shots. Milan were lucky to get a draw.
- What this match teaches us: Match-fixing scandals can make us wonder whether out favorite players are incompetent or deceitful.
- What happens next: On December 8, Milan travel to Switzerland to play FC Zurich. If they win, they qualify for the next round of the Champions League. Marseille are at home against Real Madrid, who have already qualified for the next round. If Marseille tie or lose, then Milan moves on to the next round. The only way Milan cannot qualify for the next round is if they lose or tie and Marseille wins.
