Several shock results this match day or perhaps not so shocking once considering the intense midweek action.
Palermo – AC Milan
Milan was mauled in Sicily with all goals in this one coming in the second half. Palermo manhandled AC Milan after the interval with early goals by Fabrizio Micoli (50′) and “El Matador” Edinson Cavani (59′). Brazilian midfielder Fábio Simplicio added to the Palermo tally in the 80th minute taking a 3 – 0 lead over the Rossoneri. Ronaldinho would score a consolation goal for the visitors with a converted penalty in the dying moments.
After the match Palermo manager, Davide Ballardini, was questioned by reporters on the performance of his players and how it felt to defeat the visitors from the North.
“We played a great game tonight” said Ballardini continuing, “it is a great feeling to defeat a team who are favourites for the Scudetto, in my opinion.”
