TURIN, Italy -- Mirko Vucinic scored in extra time to give Juventus a 2-2 draw with AC Milan on Tuesday and send his team to the Italian Cup final with a 4-3 win in the two-game series. Tony Carter Womens Jersey . Getting a rare start in his final season with Juventus, 37-year-old Alessandro Del Piero put the hosts ahead in the 28th minute and Algeria left back Djamel Mesbah equalized for Milan in the 51st. Second-half Milan substitute Maxi Lopez silenced the Juventus Stadium with a powerful shot from the edge of the area in the 81st to draw the clubs level on aggregate but Vucinic then found the top corner from 25 yards in the 96th to put Juve through. "It was a great game," Juventus midfielder Andrea Pirlo said. "Were happy to reach the final against a squad as great as Milan. Weve attained our first objective of the season." In the May 20 final, Juventus will face either Napoli or Siena, which meet Wednesday with Siena holding a 2-1 lead from the first leg. While Milan holds a four-point lead over Juve at the top of Serie A, Juve holds the edge head-to-head this season with a win and a draw in each competition. Juventus remained undefeated in all competitions this season. Both sides rested their first-choice goalkeepers, with Juventus using Marco Storari in place of Gianluigi Buffon and Milan calling on Marco Amelia for Christian Abbiati. Milan threatened early with Zlatan Ibrahimovic but it was an effort from former Milan standout Pirlo that set up the opening goal. Having transferred to Juve before this season, Pirlo caught Milans defence off guard for a split second and delivered an excellent pass for Stephan Lichtsteiner, who held off a defender to slide in the cross for Del Piero to dribble around Amelia and score. First-year Juventus coach Antonio Conte has found little room for Del Piero this season and club president Andrea Agnelli announced in October that this -- Del Pieros 19th year in Bianconero -- would be his final season with the team. Perhaps sensing this might be his last chance to shine before his home fans, Del Piero leaped in joy and stuck his tongue out to celebrate his goal. Juve fans chanted "Theres only one captain" as the half wore on, and again when Del Piero exited midway through the second half. Perhaps with upcoming matches against Roma and Barcelona in mind, Milan manager Massimiliano Allegri replaced Ibrahimovic with Lopez to start the second half. Just as it seemed the match was heading toward a draw, Mesbah scored with a diving header following a long pass from Philippe Mexes after being left unmarked by Simone Pepe and then Lopez gave Milan the lead. Marco Borriello had a chance for Juventus in the 86th but couldnt finish off a counterattack and the match entered extra time. In the 93rd, Amelia did well to stop Juventus midfielder Emanuele Giaccherini but three minutes later Vucinic calmly controlled the ball and had time to line up a long shot that gives Juve a chance at its record 10th Italian Cup title. Juventus and Roma currently share the record with nine cups each. Ronnie Hillman Womens Jersey .J. Miles are out for Tuesdays game against Sacramento because of injuries. Quinton Carter Jersey . A goal machine for the MLS team when healthy, the former striker is back in his native Netherlands these days.COLLEGE PARK, Md. -- Up by 12 points with just under six minutes left, No. 4 Syracuse appeared poised to secure an unusually easy victory. Not a chance. After letting the seemingly comfortable lead dwindle to a single point in the closing seconds, Syracuse squeezed past Maryland 57-55 on Monday to end a two-game losing streak. It was another close call for the Orange (26-2, 13-2 Atlantic Coast Conference), whose previous four games were decided by a total of 12 points. "Were in a lot of these games," coach Jim Boeheim said. "For the most part weve made good plays at the end of them, and thats why we are where we are. Were not overpowering too many people, I can promise you that." Syracuse led 51-39 with 5:45 left but allowed Maryland to close to 56-55 with 47 seconds remaining. After C.J. Fair missed a jumper for the Orange, Baye Moussa Keita blocked a driving layup by Nick Faust to keep Syracuse in front. "I thought Nick got fouled and the replay showed that," Maryland coach Mark Turgeon said. "Its been that type of year for us." Trevor Cooney was fouled and made one of two free throws with four seconds to go before Marylands Seth Allens off-balance shot bounded off the back of the rim as the buzzer sounded. Tyler Ennis scored 20 points and Fair had 17 to help Boeheim secure his 946th career victory. Like many of the previous ones during Syracuses first season in the ACC, this was not easy. "How many we played in the league now? Weve had one that wasnt close," Boeheim said. "This was the game we were most ahead of in all except two. This has been how weve played since the league started. We were actually ahead, which we probably werent used to." After opening the season with 25 straight wins, Syracuse dropped successive games to Boston College and Duke to lose its stature as the nations top-ranked team. Saturdays game at Duke was decided by a pivotal call in the final seconds that caused Boeheim to storm the court, receive two technical fouls and an automatic ejection. In this one, Boeheim was relatively calm on the sideline as the Orange forced 18 turnovers and limited Maryland (15-13, 7-8) to 35 per cent shooting. The coach took exception to Turgeons claim that Faust was fouled on his drive to the hoop. "They shot 27 free throws. If anybodys going to complain about the officiating, Im going to complaain," Boeheim said. Orlando Franklin Youth Jersey. "If they didnt turn it over 18 times, they wouldnt have to worry about that." Syracuse finished the game without forward Jerami Grant, who hurt his back after making two baskets in 13 minutes. "It was a really big win for us," Ennis said. "We played without Jerami for the second half, which kind of hurt us, but I thought everybody that came in really stepped up." Including Fair, who went 8 for 17 from the field and grabbed nine rebounds. "This is definitely a big win. It mightve been the biggest win of the season so far," Fair said. "That game to break your losing streak is always like the hardest. Because youre so anxious and you want that game so bad that sometimes it can go bad for you." Allen scored 22 points for the Terps. He was 6 for 9 from beyond the arc, but his teammates combined to go 2 for 13. It was the first sellout of the season at Maryland, which does not have traditional rivals Duke or North Carolina on the home schedule during its final season in the ACC. "I think late we got stops," Allen said, "and you know the crowd got us into it, it kept us going." The crowd of 17,950 lost much of its enthusiasm during a stretch in which the Terrapins went scoreless for nearly 5 minutes in the second half while Syracuse upped its lead to double figures. Ennis, a 6-foot-2 freshman, made a three-pointer and two baskets in an 8-2 spree that put Syracuse up 42-30. After the Terps closed to 44-37, Michael Gbinije popped a 3, Faust botched a dunk on the other end and Ennis hit a jumper for a 49-37 lead. It barely held up. Syracuse shot 50 per cent and Ennis drilled a three-pointer just before the buzzer for a 32-24 halftime advantage. After a steal by Dez Wells set up a dunk by Charles Mitchell to put Maryland ahead 5-3, the Orange got four points apiece from Fair and Grant in a 15-3 run that made it 18-8. At that point, Syracuse was 8 for 12 from the field and the Terrapins were 3 for 13. A three-pointer by Allen capped a 9-2 spurt that got Maryland to 20-17 before the Orange rattled off three straight baskets. The Terrapins were still in it, though, despite missing 12 of 17 shots and committing nine turnovers. With 4:55 left, Fair picked up his third foul and hit the bench for the remainder of the half after scoring 10 points on 5-for-7 shooting. wholesale nfl jerseys ' ' '
