Terrible decision and now Spezia make it 2-1 in injury time.

Terrible second half from Milan. Looked in trouble any time Spezia made a rare attack and couldn't finish some great chances.

Good to see Calabria back and Rebic needs to start ahead of Diaz now that he is back. I doubt Juve and Inter are going to be too worried after seeing that game tonight

Reckon you'd have to be nuts to take over at Genoa, they looking completely Serie B bound

Sounds like a job for Sam Allerdichi.

Shocked Milan lost that one. Apparently the ref has apologised and could be set for a suspension. Rafael Leao looks like he's ready to have a superb 2022. Very excited to see what he has in store this year.

It's a pity because I really liked the way he reffed the rest of the game. Took no nonsense from the players who fall over when someone just breathes on their back.

Milan shouldn't have been needing to chase the game like that in the first place though. Really thought Poli made the wrong changes too when he took off Leao and Saelemaekers.

God that was an awful match tonight and it's no fault of Atlanta with their injuries.

Inzaghi did some job with Lazio and they'd played entertaining stuff compared to Sarri

Mr.Nice Guy · 23-01-2022 12:34AM

Milan vs Juve tomorrow is going to be fascinating. Juve are quietly creeping up the table.

breezy1985 · 25-01-2022 12:34PM

Anyone know why Serie A is taking a week break ?

That's what I thought but when I googled it all I got was a few random asian games.

I now see it's a window for non UEFA countries who still have qualifiers to catch up on

The Golden Miller · 27-01-2022 04:56PM

Hard to watch Inter creep ahead. Spiezas last minute goal felt like a punch to the gut. Milan needed to win this year to catch Inter in titles, as next year normal service will be resumed with Juve and their domestic consistency under Allegri. You can slowly see him get them back to where they were.

Apart from the outrage in Milan, I'm surprised there's not being more made of the San Siro being knocked down. Europe's most iconic stadium being binned. Irreplaceable stadium, absolute cauldron when full. Nowhere like it really

It's an absolute kip though. One section of the top tier is condemned and falling down. Having the stadia council owned was a disaster as the lack of funding has really left clubs with little choice. Best we can hope for is a new stadium but in the same location.

Ye was in it. Can nearly see the weeds growing. VIP seats and section even very poor. They said neither club will invest as the other will benefit, and the owners, the council, broke. When they came together, none can agree on how to renevate it. So this is the result I suppose.

A shame, nowhere like it. When you see a goal on TV, you can always see the rush forward behind the goal. Looks brilliant. The game v United in 08, the place was an absolute cauldron, very intimidating, United beaten before the first whistle, could see it on the players faces. Even from the TV, you could feel the stadium that night

Milan derby won't be starting on BT until 5.15 tomorrow. Stone age stuff. Surely foreign football shouldn't come under the English law of no football between 3 and 5.15.

Mr.Nice Guy · 04-02-2022 11:14PM

Yeah I noticed that. Very frustrating since there's a lot riding on the game.

Looking forward to it. An Inter win would give their title hopes a big boost since they've also got a game in hand.

Mr.Nice Guy · 05-02-2022 06:50PM

Inter lead by a goal at the break. Dumfries probably should have scored as well but Maignan made a nice save. Milan need to improve in the second half.

1-1. Giroud equalises. Thought Sanchez might have been fouled in the build up but officials saw nothing wrong.

2-1 Milan! What a turnaround this is. Giroud gets another.

Headshot · 05-02-2022 07:56PM

It was awful keeping from Handanovic but this is brilliant for the title race

League is really hotting up now

Mr.Nice Guy · 05-02-2022 07:58PM

Theo Hernandez sent off in the final seconds but Milan see it out. Good result for the neutrals certainly.

06-02-2022 02:50PM

Two wins for the hunchbacks and they haven't been on the field yet

Smell the glove · 06-02-2022 09:07PM

Blatant foul by giroud in the build up to Milan's first goal last night. Good for the league though that Milan won. Might make it more interesting as was said by others.

Absolutely horrible seeing Vlahovic in that horrible hunchback jersey tonight.

Makes up for the ref fking it up for Milan last week.

justshane · 06-02-2022 09:42PM

Vlahovic with a great finish, super start to his Juve carrer.

recyclops · 07-02-2022 12:34PM

Quick question, how much notice do you get of games being changed for tv etc, I am heading over to Naples in March and hoping their game will be on the sunday.

Last time I went it was a midweek game and couldnt be moved

Smell the glove · 07-02-2022 07:01PM

The times were confirmed two weeks before the latest bunch so I would imagine the march times will be set in stone soon maybe late next week? They seem to be better this year with the times.

Smell the glove · 07-02-2022 08:57PM

Some start to the game tonight. Verdi with a peach of a free kick for Salernitana and now Spezia have a penalty after a VAR review. Which they score, 1-1 with 11 minutes gone.

The Golden Miller · 09-02-2022 07:22PM

Over the moon Milan got the result. Will be hard to stomach if Inter win the league and go two titles ahead. This season is Milan's best chance to draw level as Juve will be back to their best next season I fear. That Spieza result could still be a killer come the end of the season. Hopefully Milan do it

breezy1985 · 09-02-2022 09:57PM

Milan 3-0 Lazio at half time in the Coppa Italia.

Headshot · 09-02-2022 10:43PM

That Lazio team is really awful.

A lack of investment and a manager that shouldn't have been hired
