Match report: Juventus 0 - Milan 3

Above-- Nesta celebrating his goal

Below-- Gattuso in action

  • Goals scored: Nesta 29', Ronaldinho 72', Ronaldinho 88'
  • What happened: Second place Milan beat third place Juventus in Torino. Despite the excellent result, the match was sort of boring.
  • How the goals were scored: All three goals were from corner kicks, which apparently Juventus do not know how to defend anymore. Actually, to be fair, I am not sure how well Juventus defended on the last goal, because the pitch was completely obscured, either by fog or else smoke from the fire set by angry fans. (See photos below)
  • What this match teaches us: Milan are the only team left who can catch Inter.

Why do they set fires at matches?

The fans set the fires because they were angry with the team's performance lately. Juventus are sort of the Yankees of Serie A, and their fans expect wins, trophies, and championships.
