AC Milan played Palermo in a Serie A game on Sunday and I was not impressed. The final score of the match ended up being 3 - 1 with Palermo on top. AC Milan had their chances never really seemed to be into the game.

What's the deal AC Milan? I didn't even watch the whole match - it was starting to upset me. From what I saw AC Milan was playing horrible defense. There was no communication between players - if I was the goalie I would have been getting pissed at my teammates. I don't know how many times they let the ball just drop in front of them inside the box right in front of the goal. I'm surprised the score wasn't 5 - 0.

Palermo controlled the pace of the game throughout most of the match. The ball seemed to spend much more time in their possession attacking. AC Milan just couldn't get things going. They had a few chances that could have turned the momentum their way, but they couldn't capitalize. Ronaldinho had a chance early in the game (27th minute) to put AC Milan up 1 - 0 but missed a penalty on a very weak effort.

Fabrizio Miccoli put the first ball in the back of the net for Palermo in the 50th minute. It was only 9 minutes later when Palermo added a second goal scored by Edison Cavani. Fabio Simplicio put the game out of reach with a goal in the 80th minute to make it 3 - 0 Palermo. Ronaldinho spoiled a shut-out with a goal on a penalty kick in the 83rd minute.

With the lost AC Milan loses more ground on their city rivals Inter Milan for the top position in Serie A. This leaves AC Milan still in third place - six points off the leaders. The chances were there for AC Milan they just couldn't finish, and Palermo took advantage of a lack luster defensive effort on the part of AC.
