    Kaka: AC Milan still in Scudetto race
    tribalfootball.com - February 12, 2006

    AC Milan midfielder Kaka insists their Scudetto hopes are still alive.

    "We are still determined to fight," he said. "We are well aware that Juventus are still favourites but we haven't given up hope of clinching the title."

    Internazionale's 2-1 defeat at Fiorentina and Juve's 1-1 draw at home to Parma in midweek appears to have galvanised the Rossoneri, who are now three points behind second-placed Inter.

    With Inter hosting Juve this weekend, Milan know they must take home three points on Sunday if they want to get back in the Scudetto race.

    "We first have to think about winning in Reggio Calabria, which will not be an easy task," said Rossoneri coach Carlo Ancelotti.

    "We cannot make any predictions, just take it one step at a time. The most important thing is that we find continuity in terms of our performances and in results.

    "There are approximately 100 days left until the end of the season and we know we face a battle in every game, but if we do well from now on, we may achieve something important by the end of the campaign."
