"AC Milan" became champions of Italy © EuroFootball.com

The 32nd round of Serie A was played. It was revealed that the champions title was finally secured by the Milan footballers. They defeated their pursuers Roma at home and became unreachable, as there are only two rounds left to play. Unexpectedly, Parma rose to fourth place because Inter lost to Lecce, and Lazio played a draw with Reggina. Turin's Juventus continues to struggle, and this time they were defeated by the underdogs Perugia, who kept their hopes alive to stay in the league. Marius Stankevicius' Brescia club won in particularly tense and nerve-racking matches, earning three points and securing safety. In the battle for a place in the UEFA Cup against league newcomers, Sampdoria defeated Udinese.
