What happened: Roma beat Inter on Saturday to move into second place. Milan needed to win in order to keep pace and move one point back of Inter. Everyone tried very hard, but Milan only managed a tie.
Milan players who were unavailable today: Nesta, Pato, Huntelaar, Abbiati, Beckham, Bonera, Mancini (all due to injury); Ronaldinho, Pirlo (due to suspensions)
Milan players who played well today:Flamini, Abate, Antonini
Strangest quote by the announcer today: "I've just been informed that there is a possibility of the game being stopped for a time due to the fans singing derogatory songs about Clarence Seedorf." (The fans in question were supporters of Lazio.)
What this match teaches us: Milan may have too many players injured to compete for the Scudetto.
"Hockey ought to be sternly forbidden, as it is not only annoying but dangerous." Halifax Morning Sun, quoted in Michael McKinley's Hockey - A People's History
