Juventus, Lazio and Fiorentina relegated
Published in FilGoal on 14 - 07 - 2006

Italian champions Juventus, Fiorentina and Lazio have all been relegated to Serie B after being found guilty in the match fixing scandal that rocked Italian football, while AC Milan will stay in Serie A.
Juventus have been stripped of the two league titles they won in 2005 and 2006 and the club will kick-off their Serie B campaign with 30 points deducted from their tally.
Fiorentina will suffer a 12-point deduction while only seven points will be docked from Lazio in the next season.
AC Milan, who also faced charges of Sporting fraud, escaped relegation but they will not play in the UEFA Champions League after 44 points were deducted from their last season's account.
Milan will also start next season minus 15 points.
Former Juventus general director Luciano Moggi has been suspended from the game for five years.
Milan deputy president Adriano Galiani has been hit with a 12-month ban with Fiorentina chairman Andrea Della Valle banned and Lazio president Claudio Lotito banned for four and three years respectively.
Former Italian Federation president Franco Carraro and referee Massimo De Sanctis were suspended for four-and-half years each.
The seemingly harsh verdict was still lighter than what the Italian Football Federation (FIGC) prosecutor Stefano Palazzi asked for.
Palazzo demanded Juventus to be relegated to Serie C with Milan, Lazio and Fiorentina to be relegated to Serie B plus a 15 points deduction for the latter two teams and three points deduction for Milan.
