[Marshy@Atletico]

AC Milan 0 - 2 Atletico Madrid

Milan were a little wounded with 2 players out, Atletico missing Sessegnon but good cover available. It was another relatively tight game but a shot count of 7-11 was enough to keep Atleticos mini revival going.

The three points has strengthened their 8th place position with Marseille, Barca and Roma all losing. The gap to Real and Fiorentina was closed.

Manager Simon Marsh commented "Very good victory for us and we are doing better at present. Had we not drawn a lot of game we would be not far off being in the title mix. 2 or 3 good results could give us a great shout of climbing the table from here".

In other news Atletico will play Real Madrid in the Champions League semi-finals. A good draw for the fans who can walk to both games.

Inter 1-0 Real

Disappointing performance, disappointing result. Thought we might be able to haul ourselves back into the game but Inter stood strong and were worthy winners. We face them in the cup quarters so will be gunning for revenge then but for now we have to accept we were second best. Played John.

[Neil@Fiorentina]

Sporting Lisbon 2-1 Fiorentina

And back to earth for Fiorentina, in a close battle against one of the manger's old clubs.
It started well enough with the early goal from Chuk, which then swung the tactics in our favour C V A, but no, that just spurred Lisbon on.
We only slightly edged the stats, and a draw would perhaps have been a fairer result, but it is what it is, and Lisbon deserved the win, gg dude.
So a stutter in the chase for the top spots, but Fiorentina still remain firmly in the top eight, which was the pre-season target, so unless this is the start of a slide, things are still rosy.
