Claudio Ranieri was right once again. He'd identified Gigi Buffon as a possible star of the match and so it was. The main protagonist of the game between AC Milan and Juventus was indeed Juventus' keeper, alongside his AC Milan colleague Dida.
If AC Milan-Juventus finished 0-0, this is mostly due to the two keepers; especially the Brazilian, perhaps, who saved twice on Zanetti in the first half and most stunningly on Salihamidzic in the second. And when the Brazilian couldn't get to the ball, the post saved him, when Trezeguet had a chance at the beginning of the match. Meanwhile Buffon made a fantastic save on Kakà.
This draw is useful to everybody and nobody at the same time. The Bianconeri for the time being climb to second place alone, two points behind Inter Milan. And having played against all title rivals in this first half of the season, the following matches would appear - at least on paper - less insidious.
