In the 23rd minute, Milan marched onwards once again in attack as the ball found its way to Mathew Flamini just outside the Juventus penalty area. The ex-Arsenal midfielder tried to blast a shot past http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Gianluigi-Buffon-c14833 inside Juventus’s goal but
his eventual effort was more a cross rather than a shot, as the ball went out of play.
In the aftermath, Flamini protested with the referee for a corner kick as the ball seemed to have taken a huge deflection of a Juventus player but the referee maintained his earlier decision as Juventus was awarded a goal kick.
In the 25th minute of the match, Juventus was given a free kick near A.C Milan’s penalty area. Traore took the set piece but he only managed to find a three-man Milan defensive wall. However, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Giorgio-Chiellini-c14963 was also wayward with his shot on
the rebound as Milan regained control of the ball.
In the 27th minute, Milos Krasic led a brilliant Juventus counter attack. The Russian winger tricked his way past two Milan players before crossing the ball to Matri. However, the young midfielder was caught in his tracks by Gattuso as Milan’s
captain cleared the ball away from danger and Milan survived a minor scare.
In the 29th minute of the match, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Thiago-Silva-c34903 went down inside Milan’s penalty area with some injury troubles. At first it seemed the Brazilian center back was severely hurt but the field doctors tended to his cramp immediately and the play continued
as Silva ran off his injury.
In the 35th minute of the match, Kevin Prince Boateng surged down the wing for Milan and then produced an accurate ball across the Juventus penalty area. However, Ibrahimovic and Cassano did not anticipate the pass as Juventus regained control
of the ball.
Juventus surged forward in the 38th minute of the match as the ball found its way towards Matri just outside the Milan penalty area. However, Abate showed great pace and defensive awareness to tackle the Juventus midfielder just in time before
he got a shot on the Rossoneri goal and the score line remained at 0-0.
In the 40th minute, Boateng was played in by Marco Van Bommel but Buffon read the pass and rushed out to claim the ball inside his own penalty area as the Ghanaian midfielder lacked the sufficient pace to get in behind Juventus’s back four.
In the 44th minute, Van Bommel became the first player in the match to go into the referee’s book following his woeful late challenge on Marchisio in the midfield region. The Dutchman was rightly shown the yellow card as it was a cynical challenge
to say the least.
Eventually the first half of the match between Juventus and Milan came to a halt with the score line at 0-0 despite the several goal scoring opportunities that were created by the Rossoneri side throughout the first 45 minutes of the match.
