Lippi, Ancelotti And Shevchenko Comment On Milan vs. Juventus Match

MILAN, December 10 (DS) - "I have always felt myself the head coach of Juventus even if I have been outside the club," Marcello Lippi announced after the draw between AC Milan and Juventus FC.

From the very beginning of the match the tense atmosphere between the benches of the rivals' head coaches was obvious. The Old Lady head coach is offended when he is told that he has never won in the personal skirmish with Ancelotti.

"I haven't won, but I have many other successes," Lippi announced proudly. This match was a competition between two Italian titans as well as Ancelotti and Lippi. And each of the coaches tried to prove that he is the best.

After the match Lippi announced: "Juventus played magnificently in the beginning even despite the fact that after Shevchenko's goal I thought that I am in nightmare again like in London. Penalty? They should to award it. "

In his turn, Ancelotti declared: "Milan are a great team. We dominated and we deserved to win. Penalty? I have my own opinion about it. Shevchenko? He wanted to score and he did."

Andriy Shevchenko, who became an author of a magnificent goal in this match, announced: "The fortune itself played its role. I am sure that if I try even million times to repeat that goal I will not manage. I saw how Buffon advanced and I couldn't help but score."

I like the goals that I scored in Udine last year and in Rome against Lazio, and this goal is not the best of my all goals."

Of course, Shevchenko regrets that they didn't win: "Of course, in matches against Juventus one can never be confident of winning. But we played very well and even we could win. Penalty? I think it should not have been awarded.

Referees must not have personal sympathies. Of course, it is not pleasant when the penalty kick decided the result of the match when it was in our favour. "
