The AC Milan higher-up, Silvio Berlusconi, was delighted with the outcome of the Milan-Juventus fixture, especially because of the questionable penalty kick
The supremo seemed highly pleased with the turn of events, case in point being the penalty. The reigning champions were obviously displeased with the match official’s decision for a spot kick but the same incident seemed to satisfy
the Milan President hugely.
"A dubious penalty? Beating Juventus like this makes the win even better for me," Berlusconi commented.
The Rossoneri were forced to face a meaningless draw last time these two sides clashed. The http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Sulley-Muntari-c34312 header had clearly crossed the goal line but the officials disallowed it. This time around the Bianconeri were on the receiving
end of a bad decision.
As Nicola Rizzoli awarded a penalty against http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Mauricio-c24899 Islo for a hand ball violation, the Italian Giants accepted this as Karma and to them it was justice being served after last year’s incident.
The President of the club was also happy that the team demonstrated a positive state of mind on the pitch in Sunday’s game. Something that the side was missing in their past fixtures, since the beginning of the season.
Berlusconi had met with the team earlier as well before the game with http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Napoli-c40003 where he boosted the morale of the team which many think resulted in the 2-2 comeback the team was able to pull off.
This win over the Old Lady shows further proof that all that is required from the side is a positive state of mind since the lack of talent or the drive to win is clearly not a factor.
"For the first time the players seemed to realise what it means to play for a club like Milan. I think I played a role in this."
"Juventus play some great football and [Antonio] Conte has done some great work with his philosophy." Said the head of the club.
Milan have skipped four places after the win to secure the eighth position in the Serie A tables. A sigh of relief for the followers of the club who were clearly annoyed at being the bottom ten for some time now.
