Luciano Moggi: Inter Also Cheated In Calciopoli

The former Juve man claims Inter showed their hand in Calciopoli...

Former Juventus director Luciano Moggi has hit back at Inter chief executive Ernesto Paolillo after his Calciopoli comments.

Last week, Paolillo spoke about the sentences that were handed out to a number of people including Antonio Giraudo, the former Juventus director. He said the result of the trial in Naples, where Giraudo was given a three year jail term, explained Juve's dominance over Inter pre-Calciopoli.

"The sentence shows that we lost many Scudetti in strange ways and it shows that what used to be said is true," Paolillo told the press last week.

Moggi has now responded to the Nerazzurri. He claims Inter also played a part in the 2006 scandal after Rosario Coppola claimed the club called up referees and linesman in relation to the Ivan Cordoba incident.

"These people [Paolillo] speak out while knowing what they are saying, but the reality is going against them," Moggi told Radio Erre.

"Two weeks ago the linesman Coppola showed how Inter pressured people so that Cordoba didn't receive a ban. Pressuring means making phone calls, calls that Inter did a number of times - this was also confirmed by former referee designators.

"It's just a shame that these phone calls just disappeared, of course. Telecom Italia was not owned by Juventus, but by Inter.

"And lets not speak about Guido Rossi. He took away Juventus' Scudetti and gave them to Inter. Then what does he do? Goes to work for FIAT. What more can I say?

"I am the only one who has been defending Juventus."
