- Goals scored: Borriello 12', Borriello 90+3'
- What happened: Milan scored early. I spent the rest of the game dreading a repeat of Wednesday's blown lead against Napoli. Then Milan scored again.
- Who set up Borriello's goals: Ronaldinho made nice passes on both plays.
- About Parma: This is their first year back in Serie A, and they are doing quite well. Prior to yesterday's match, they were in fourth place. One of their strikers is Alberto Paloschi, whose contract is co-owned by Milan and Parma.
- Dida's game: Dida played quite well, with an excellent save on a long shot and another on a close header.
- Milan players who have returned from injury: Gattuso
- Milan players who were injured during the match: Antonini
- Strangest yellow card I have ever seen: Ronaldinho received a yellow card in the 42nd minute. The ball had gone out for a Milan throw-in. Ronaldinho went to take it. Before he could get the ball, another Milan player got a different ball from the ball person and threw it in. When Ronaldinho looked up to throw his ball in, he saw that there already was a ball on the pitch. He dropped his ball in such a way that it also rolled onto the field. The referee had to stop play due to there being two balls on the pitch, and he gave Ronaldinho a yellow card for delay of game.
- What this match teaches us: Always score more goals, especially late in the game.
