A hard fought draw but most importantly, two points lost, but the silver lining in all this is that Inter drew their game as well. Meaning that Milan maintain their five point advantage, but the bad news,,,the next 3 game will be without the giant Swede, that means he'll miss the Milan derby!
Bari drew first blood, it resulted from a well worked free kick in which Rudolf was left unmarked and Van Bommel saw him too late to do anything. They were behind, after having much of the ball early on. Luck was not on the Rossoneri's side as they had two goals disallowed, the first was judged to be off side which clearly wasn't, and the second which was chalked off for a Zlatan hand ball, which it was. The second half saw a more determined side but still Bari did have their chances.
Late in the second Bari born Cassano made it level and from then on it was all Milan. As the half went on Milan were increasingly getting frustrated and they knew a draw will not suffice. Milan had over 70% possession, but their was still no winning goal. At this point Ibrahimovic was getting viably frustrated and resulted in him getting a red card and leaving Milan to play the rest of the game with 10 men.
I do wonder if there is something in the water in the north of Italy, as all northern teams went down to 10 me, Inter, Milan and Juventus- Maybe the pressure is getting to them!
