: EPL: Aston Villa at Sunderland

A rather boring game until Joachim scored early in the second half, then Sunderland fought back hard. They couldn’t score for a long time and it looked like they were going down, but finally McCann put it away and secured the draw. Final: 1-1.

: Serie A: Juventus at Udinesse

Excellent game. After a lag in which one began to wonder if Juventus would be happy with a draw, Zambrotta scored in the 38th minute. Udinesse fought back valiantly, but they couldn’t do anything against the tough Juventus defense. An hour in Inzaghi increased Juventus’ lead. There was some hope for Udinesse when Del Piero handled the ball and got his second yellow, but minutes later their own Alberto was sent off for the same offense. Juventus easily held on after that. Final: 2-0 Juventus.
