Maicon's appeal is rejected
MILAN, 4 December 2009 - Maicon could have been called to the squad, but we will never know. Although he is too important of a pawn not to hope for a last-minute miracle, the Portuguese manager believed that "injustice" would have won; and indeed, CAF rejected the appeal submitted by Inter against the two-game disqualification of the defender after being expelled during the match against Bologna. The Brazilian, who has already missed one game against Fiorentina, will not be on the pitch tomorrow against Juventus.
When asked about the match, Inter's manager commented on his approach: "Juventus-Inter is always worth 3 points, the same points we won against Fiorentina and that we lost against Sampdoria. We are confident we will return from Turin still first in the standings."
Future Finally, a parting shot for those who question his future on the Nerazzurro bench. "I am the current manager at Inter. During the week, they were already calling me ex-Nerazzurro boss, but I will be here as long as Moratti wants and until he tells me to go away." Served.
