i only got to watch the first half, but this is a big disappointment. again it comes down to the way we try to WALK the ball into the net rather than run with it.

we are so fucking slow in playing the ball upfield. its as if we tell the other team to get into position before we even attempt to attack their goal.

our 1 goal advantages were only going to carry us for so long, it was just a matter of time before a team equalized (or won) in the late stages of the game.

the most bullshit part about this is that carlo is saying its the refs fault for calling the foul. i haven't seen it yet, but we should've won this game by a mile and a half.

borriello was absolute shit today.

Italy: Ancelotti turns on Milan referee
http://www.independent.co.uk/sport/football Ã¢â‚¬â€œ Monday, 10 November 2008

AC Milan coach Carlo Ancelotti blamed a refereeing mistake for his side's 1-1 draw with Lecce on Sunday. Ancelotti was furious that Ronaldinho's 79th minute strike was cancelled out by Andrea Esposito's last-gasp header at the Via del Mare as Lecce were awarded a controversial late free-kick.

The two dropped points also cost the Rossoneri their place at the top of the table, with city rivals and defending champions Internazionale assuming leadership of Serie A following their 1-0 win over Udinese.

"We had a lot of opportunities," lamented Ancelotti. "We were well balanced and consistent throughout the match, but we conceded a goal in the final moments, not because of a defensive lapse in concentration, but because of an error in the arbitration."

Meanwhile, vice-president Adriano Galliani has warned Milan that the loss of two points could well come back to haunt them.

"We continue to drop points where we shouldn't and in the long run this may come back to haunt us," warned Galliani. "We'll keep on fighting for the Scudetto, but we just can't accept results like this."

Elsewhere, AS Roma full-back Cicinho has apologised after his last-minute own goal handed Bologna a share of the spoils in Saturday's 1-1 draw at the Renato Dall'Ara.

The Brazil international headed Marco Di Vaio's hopeful cross past his own goalkeeper in the dying moments of the game to cancel out Francesco Totti's opener and leave Luciano Spalletti's side toiling in 17th place in the Serie A table.

"I am deeply sorry, but I feel calm as I could not have done things differently," said the former Real Madrid defender. "Truth be told, I just threw myself toward the ball trying to drive it out for a corner. I saw a shadow on my left and felt that, if I had moved out of the way, I would have committed a big mistake. The Bologna striker was right there, about to meet the ball and easily turn it in. Either way, people would have said I was at fault."
