2005-2006 (3rd in Serie A, Semi Finals in European Cup)

Milan's Serie A campaign appeared to be one of their most successful in recent years. The team ended the season with a league high 28 wins, but could not edge Juventus in the standings thanks to their (at the time) record setting pace of 91 points. However all this success was nullified by the Calciopoli scandal. Milan were named in the Serie A scandal of 2006 and deprived of 44 out of the 88 points they gained in Serie A 2005-06. In addition, Milan would start their 2006-07 campaign with minus 15 points. Later, however, these point deductions were reduced, to 30 and minus 8 respectively, giving Milan the chance to compete in UEFA Champions League 2006-07.

Milan's efforts in the Champions League that year also proved close, but ultimately unsuccessful. After coming out on top of their group, Milan advanced to the knockout phase of the UEFA Champions League 2005–06, first defeating FC Bayern Munich of Germany on aggregate and then Olympique Lyonnais 3-1 on aggregate. Advancing to the semi-finals of the competition, they were defeated by eventual champion FC Barcelona of Spain 0-1 on aggregate, thus ending their Champion's League run for that season
