His partnership with Juninho Paulista was evident during the season, with 5 of his goals coming from the Brazilian's killer passes.
On 29 January 2000 while refereeing the game between Manchester United and Middlesbrough, D'Urso awarded Middlesbrough a penalty kick when Juninho was tackled by Jaap Stam.
However, due to the 1st team concurrence (specially with Juninho Paulista) he ended up not being much used and by the second half of 2006 he went to Coritiba on loan.

The first leg went Middlesbrough's way with them taking a 1-0 lead thanks to a Juninho goal.
The game now is globally promoted and controlled through the International Confederation of Futebol de Salão, based in the United Kingdom and set up by Simon Clifford after a chance meeting with the Brazilian Footballer Juninho's father at a Premiership football match.
