Juventus and Fiorentina draw, 1-1
Adrian Mutu scored in the 88th minute to assist Fiorentina score a 1-1 draw with Italian Giant Juventus. Mutu’s goal came on a penalty kick late after a controversial play in the box.

Gianluigi Buffon could not stop the well placed penalty.
Vincenzo Iaqunita scored in the 23rd minute to put Juventus on top, only to be equalized late on the controversial call in the 88th minute.¬† Mutu, who left Juventus for Fiorentina in late 2006, beat Buffon from the spot after former teammate Nicola Legrottaglie handled the ball in the box.¬† However, Juventus’ goal was equally controversial.¬† TV replays prove Iaqunita’s edge-of-the-box blast should have been disallowed.¬† After a poor defensive header from Alessandro Gamberini, Juventus striker David Trezuguet seemed to confuse Viola keeper Sebastian Frey by blocking his line of sight, clearly in violation of the offsides rule.
