The Rossoneri lost to Juve at San Siro Sunday... here's from acmilan.com

MILAN 0-1 JUVENTUS

Milan went down to a first-half goal from David Trezeguet in the top-of-the-table clash. Coach Carlo Ancelotti made just one chance from the side that started at PSV Eindhoven in midweek, with Jon Dahl Tomasson partnering Andriy Shevchenko in attack. It was an even opening period as both sides probed for an opening. Dida got down to save a Pavel Nedved shot from the edge of the area on two minutes while at the other end Shevchenko was caught offside as Milan looked to spread play wide. On 19 minutes, Andrea Pirlo released a precise long ball through the middle which set Shevchenko running into the area but Gigi Buffon forced the striker wide and Gianluca Zambrotta got back to block the attempted cross. Juve, however, took the lead on 28 minutes when an Alex Del Piero overhead kick from the left edge of the area found Trezeguet totally unmarked in the area and the striker headed past Dida who got a hand to the ball. The Brazilian goalkeeper was called into action soon after as he dived to block Del Piero’s long-range effort.

Serginho came on for Pirlo at the start of the second half and immediately caused panic in the Bianconeri defence, with curling cross which just evaded Tomasson and Shevchenko. Cafu then arrived on the right of the area and swung in a low shot which curled wide of the far post. Filippo Inzaghi was introduced on 55 minutes in place of Tomasson and almost grabbed the equaliser when he latched on to a Shevchenko pass, only for Buffon to half-block the first shot and then Zambrotta got back to clear the ball off the line. Juve almost doubled their lead on 65 minutes as Del Piero rose in the area to send a header against the crossbar. Seedorf was replaced by Rui Costa as the Rossoneri chased that vital goal and Shevchenko whipped a header just over the bar. Cafu went down in the area under a challenge from Zambrotta but the referee waved play on although replays suggested there had been a tug on the Brazilian’s shirt. However, Inzaghi was whistled for a handball inside the area as he turned to shoot. With five minutes added on at the end of the game, Milan threw everyone forward and Alessandro Nesta headed over from a Rui Costa free-kick while Serginho’s surging run was cleared at the last moment. Then in the dying seconds Buffon was grateful to dive on Inzaghi header that bounced in front of goal.
