After a dull first half the Milan vs Juventus match has exploded into life with 5 goals in the second half. Milan coming from 2 down to lead 3-2 after scoring 3 goals in 6 minutes.

Some second half.
Only noticed last week that the Livesecore App has gotten the rights to show some La Liga and Serie A games.
Nice option to watch a few games.

That was unexpected

Milan are a fair distance off a CL spot in Serie A so not exactly a proud night for Juve. They were missing a few players but even so they look some distance from being a CL favourite, sacking Allegri and hiring Sarri really hasn't lead to this increase in performance and change of style that they were expecting.
Must be awkward for the Maldini and Pioli to have to feign enthusiasm when Ralf Ragnick is so heavily rumoured to be coming in to take over both their roles. At least it means Milan will have less people to sack next summer if that goes bad, it has for the past 3 seasons anyway.

Milan turning on the style the last two games to tempt Hendrick over

Seems a done deal I thought, looks like Maldini could be on the way out as well

Inter must piss Conte off something fierce. Threw away 2 points, they are fine for a CL spot but he'd have wanted to see more from them before the season ends. He'll need another season to build that squad and to keep Martinez around as someone like Alexis is a poor replacement.

Managed to lose the other night despite being a goal up, a man up and having a penalty (missed). There’s something rotten deep in the club and the mentality of the team, same old story of flattering to deceive and then piddling it away in the most stupid fashion possible. Could see Conte walking, what can you do when it’s so deeply ingrained?

Hopefully a great game to watch before the UFC gets underway tonight with Juve Vs Atalanta.

Lazio losing again at home, Atalanta can overtake them if they beat Juve later.

O Lazio ��. And I think Atalanta will win tonight

Jebus that was some goal

MeMen2_MoRi_

Great response from Atalanta from the Juve early pressure.

ERG89

Christ that looked painful

kksaints

Dybala looks by far the main threat for Juventus. Rest of the team haven't done very much.

MeMen2_MoRi_

The game has a feel of the Sheffield/Chelsea about it, Juve slow in their build up, Atalanta being allowed to get in position to defend.

MeMen2_MoRi_

Nsfw.. looked like nuts were being cracked, it seems he has none he recovered so quickly.

They really need to fix this stupid handball rule

ERG89

I think without a pen we would have been waiting a while for the Juve goal. Atalanta haven't been very authoritive in the second half though.

ERG89

Some power in that hit

MeMen2_MoRi_

Commentators said watch out for his left foot shot.. :rolleyes:

ffs what the hell is he suppose to do with that handball

The rules are disgraceful

ERG89

I swear Juve's main tactic in this game is kick it up towards their hands.

MeMen2_MoRi_

Crazy stuff, fcuk me

Ohmeha

I'm sure the idiot lawmakers to get around these penalty controversies will order footballers to amputate their arms

ERG89

That tactic might work in Italy but Juve will suffer elsewhere if that's the best they can muster up.

kksaints

Very frustrating that they're very innocuous handball but by the interpretation of the handball that's used in Italy they're both penalties. Real shame for Atalanta.
