Roma vs Milan - Post Game Comments

Kaká deliberately got the yellow card so he can rest for the derby.

Wasnt it obvious? He was kicking the ball whenever Roma won a FK trying to get a booking. After doing it abt 3 times, Paparesta just gave the yellow to him.

I bet it was some kind of deliberate action So that means Rui or Dhorasoo will have one extra chance

Btw, great match that was, though I have seen only highlights...

I can not see any reason for a red card for Cafu.

Look at the situation in reverse. If Cufre had jumped in like that and it had been Cafu leaving on a stretcher i'd have probably thrown the remote at the TV in anger

It was a very reckless tackle and well deserving of a red card. If he had gone then it could have had serious implications as Roma were still in the game at 0 - 0. With the title race so close we really couldnt afford to give Juve a 2 or 3 point headstart, they f*cked a lead up once but they cant be relied on to do it again

Actually he was showing his old self every time he played but he kept getting injured in the end, finally he completed a match without getting injured.

When is Nesta back ?

He should be back for the Brescia game Staci!

As you know Warro, I live in Barbados, we have nothing when it comes to technology. Quite frustration moving from Europe to here, having to go thru all development another time.

Btw, they are launching GSM here now, that's how behind we are

Excellent performance by all team members. Don't forget that we where without the best defender and the best striker, we didn't missed them. BTW we won in the Olimpico without any help.... not like others

Great match overall.

firstly, lets get Cafu out of the way. He deserved red, simple as that and was VERY fortunate. He went diving in two footed, studs showing. Anyone who saw Cufre's injury will agree. Hopefully, he's ok.

Next about the yellow cards. I do agree Kaka tried to get his as he was constantly kicking the ball away etc and Seedorf may have been similar if he is now suspended too. Stam I don't think tried to get yellow, but got it anyway, as he got it for a very light tackle.

Moving onto individual performances...

Dida was very quiet mostly, but the two Totti shots he had to save were dealt with well.

Maldini was flawless, nothing new

Stam was excellent overall. Had the odd moment of panic, but overall he looks to be at his best and it couldn't have come at a better time

Kaladze was superb. Defensively he's looking very solid again and going forward he is doing well. Great crosses too.

Cafu was good and ran up and down the flank well. However, there is no excuse for his foul

Gattuso was simply himself. Seems to be playing with confidence too and is really incredible.

Pirlo was conducting play superbly. Great passing and control throughout the game and deserved his goal. I'm glad to see he didn't miss the penalty after missing a few this season.

Seedorf worked hard and had good control. He wasn't his brilliant self, but provided a lot for the side.

Kaka was himself, though he was brilliant sometimes and non-existent others. In the end, he deserves credit for his performance, especially as the Roma midfield did quite well to take him out of the match at times.

Crespo was good. Typical predator as he was quiet but at the moments he was needed he scored and won a penalty.

JDT was disappointing. Clearly lacks confidence and the dive summed up his match tbh.

Very good performance imo. The first half was pretty even though Roma probably just edged it. However, during the half, it was quite rare for Roma to get a clear chance, despite our defence not being at its best. We also made some decent chances.

The second half was typical Milan. Controlled, organised and VERY dangerous. We completely took control and Roma were left in big trouble. I love the way we can keep possession so well, which is one of our greatest assets.

Overall, a deserved and necessary win. Lets keep Juve panicking

FORZA CRESPO!
FORZA PIRLO!
FORZA MILAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!

Yes - Overall I always imagine the situation the other way. Just saw it again and would still not give any redcard, even if it was Cafu who had been injuried.

Cufre is going into this tackle also reckless - Not as much as Cafu maybe, but still this tackle is not clean.
I`ve always learn that if you make hard tackles on the pitch, it often also hit you.

Normally Cafu don`t make such hard tackles - that is maybe what is surprising.

i cannot believe u are still not convinced... if some1 had tackled me that way id say 'screw the whole in my thigh, im gonna kill this SOB' .... that is probably the worst tackle i have ever seen... what was he thinking??? ... u see the look on his face before he went down and u can see that cafu was eager to injure the guy...

i was really pissed off at the way kaka begged for that yellow, what the hell was wrong with him??? .. i feel sorry for seedorfs yellow, its one of those situations where u get blamed for doing nothing wrong! ... i wanna know what he meant when he raised his hand on kaka after kaka pulled him back. nothing serious i hope!

stam, hes a wall man, its so funny, people want to shrug him off they end up on the ground, imagine going into a fight with him!!!

so we have brescia next and i expect cafu to get a ban on that tackle so well be without stam, cafu, and kaka ... and some1 else if im not wrong... hopefully well have nesta, billy and rui to deputise plus SHEVCHENKO back!!!

You're taking this too far. Cafu has always been a fair player. This was merely the exception that proves the rule.

Only because you were likely not born when this legend made his debut, you shall be forgiven
