The 82 Point Thread

Week 31
April 18: Siena 2 - Milan 1
Pts: 60/82 ****** Every * signifies 10 points
Game: 27/34
Position on table: 2
Total points: 67
Scorers: Crespo

All credit to Siena who fought back from a goal down - something that teams like Inter and Man Utd were unable to do to Milan. Juve break away and reopen a 3 point lead over Milan, but as Ancelotti said after the game, Milan overcame a 8 point deficit in one week, so 3 points is very doable. The head to head against Juve seems very important now.

Week 32
April 20: Milan 1 - Chievo 0
Pts: 63/82 ****** Every * signifies 10 points
Game: 28/34
Position on table: 1
Total points: 70
Scorers: Seedorf

Back on level terms with Juve and Milan win and Juve lost to Inter. Never thought I would say this but THANK YOU INTER MERDA!

Week 33
April 23: Milan 3 - Parma 0
Pts: 66/82 ****** Every * signifies 10 points
Game: 29/34
Position on table: 1
Total points: 73
Scorers: Kaka', Tomasson, Cafu

The pressure is on Juve now as Milan take sole position of the numero uno spot in the scudetto race. Some points about this game:
1) Cafu scores his first for Milan this season
2) Pippo Inzaghi returns from injury - again.

we won't make the 82 points now, we can only make 81, but i don't care as long as we finish 1 ahead of juve thats all that matters. also we should have wrapped this title up long ago, we have dropped at least 15 points more than we should have.

doesn't matter. this thread is great for keeping track of games

81 is good enough for me. What's important is that if we get 81, we get the scudetto.

81 is good enough!

who said the max number of points we can finish is 81? ... dont we have 76 right now? and we can attain a max number of 12 in the upcoming 4 games so that makes it a maximum number of 88 points possible

Check the first page of the thread for the explaination of how Nadir is counting the points. 88 is the maximum points we can achieve, but not when adjusting for the longer season this year.

Week 35

Game of the season, watched in 180 countries, but Milan fail to show the world why red and black are better than white and black. Poor communication between Stam and Maldini led to Trezeguet being left wide open to head a goal past Dida. Pippo almost equalized twice. Three games left in the season and Juve have a 3 point lead. Keep believing in the boys...forza Milan!

And with Milan's tie with Lecce and Juve's win against Parma, the title race is pretty much over. Congratulations to Juventus on the scudetto.

I wouldn't congratulate Dopers. They will remain on top of my hate lists for a long time to come.

I will just face the music and accept the reality. FORZA MILAN!!


P.S. We now have 70 points from 32 games. To think we won the 98-99 Scudetto with 70 points out of 34 games.

I wouldn't congratulate Juventus either. They start off with a ten-point advantage every season, so winning is no big deal for them. I don't mind congratulating Lazio and Roma on their recent scudettos, or Milan for the win last year.

Me too, I wouldnt congratulate cheaters, cuz for obivous reasons. They have referee back up in many games especially when a situation was critical to dopers. Just remember that Chievo goal...
