3 Goals For Ronnie( AC Milan 4-0 Siena)

A hat-trick from Ronaldinho guided AC Milan to a 4-0 home win over 10-man Siena on Sunday, moving Leonardo's side to within six points of Serie A league leader Inter Milan.
Ronaldinho converted a 12th minute penalty following a red card for Siena goalkeeper Gianluca Curci and Marco Borriello hit his seventh goal of the season before the Brazilian struck two more goals after the break to seal Milan's win.
"Ronaldinho scored a great goal, one of rare beauty," Leonardo said, referring to his fellow Brazilian's curling shot past Siena's substitute keeper Gianluca Pegolo from the edge of the area.
"But that's what he's like, a player who does fantastic things. It all comes down to him. If he is in the mood and determined, then he does things no one else in the world can."
Inter is top with 46 points following its 2-2 draw with Bari on Saturday. Milan is second on 40, but has a game in hand and meets Inter in the Milan derby next week.
"Now for the derby," Leonardo said. "It is an important game, but not decisive. Of course, the fact that the two teams are six points apart in the league gives it an extra edge."
AS Roma is third with 35 points after a 3-0 win at home to Genoa, Napoli moved up to fourth on 34 after 0-0 draw with Palermo, while Juventus lost 1-0 at mid-table Chievo Verona and slipped to fifth, one point further back.
Italy striker Luca Toni scored his first goals since joining Roma on loan from Bayern Munich after Simone Perrotta had opened the scoring in the 17th minute.
In the late match, Napoli missed the chance to move into third with its draw at home to Palermo. Napoli needed goalkeeper Morgan De Sanctis to save a first half penalty from Fabio Miccoli to help secure the point.
At San Siro, Milan started brightly and came close to scoring in the third minute when Alessandro Nesta crossed from the right and Ronaldinho volleyed the ball narrowly over.
However, the Brazilian made no mistake from the penalty spot just nine minutes later.
Siena defender Brandao dithered with the ball in the area, Borriello stole it and rounded Curci who brought him down. After the referee sent off Curci, Ronaldinho beat substitute Pegolo from the spot.
Siena striker Massimo Maccarone missed a great chance to level in the 26th when he forced his way through the Milan defence, but fired over with only goalkeeper Dida to beat.
Borriello made Siena pay for the miss when he volleyed in Andrea Pirlo's cross two minutes later.
Milan continued to dominate after halftime, with Ronaldinho heading home a corner taken by David Beckham in the 72nd minute and then scoring his third a minute from time.
"Today we won and we had a great game because we prepared for every eventuality," Leonardo said. "We were conscious that Siena could cause us problems and we prepared every detail for this match.

Juve 0-3 AC Milan ( As We Should Do To Man Utd)

AC Milan kept up the pressure on table-toppers and city rivals Inter Milan with a 3-0 win away to Juventus - a result which turns the heat firmly on home coach Ciro Ferrara.
Alessandro Nesta put Milan ahead in the 29th minute with Ronaldinho adding a second in the 72nd minute as Juve struggled to produce a performance that would ease the calls for Ferrara's head.

Another goal from Ronaldinho two minutes from time came amid protests from the home fans, who shrouded the field with smoke by burning any item possible, and sealed the win for Milan, who move within eight points of Inter with a game in hand.
Juve started well with Diego looking lively and taking the game to Milan.
He had the first opportunity in the 13th minute when he cut in from the left and curled a shot just wide of the far post.

Milan, who played with the same players and formation that had defeated Genoa 5-2 in midweek, were struggling to find the same rhythm with loanee David Beckham struggling to make an impact.
But the Rossoneri still went ahead with their first chance of the game in the 29th minute, Nesta taking advantage of a defensive mix-up to pounce onto an Alessandro Pirlo corner.

Christian Poulsen and Felipe Melo both failed to clear the corner at the near post and the ball filtered through to the former Italy defender, who had the simplest of tap-ins to open the scoring.
A lucky break at the other end gave Giorgio Chiellini the chance to level for the Bianconeri, but his shot at full stretch was collected at the second attempt by Milan goalkeeper Dida, who was in for a quiet night at the Stadio Olimpico.
Alexander Manninger was the busier of the two goalkeepers at the other end and he was forced into a full-stretch save to turn Thiago Silva's rasping 35-yard effort wide.
From the resulting corner from Beckham, Ronaldinho's header deflected off his compatriot Amauri to go over the crossbar.

Juve's greatest threat came from their central defender Chiellini, who again came close at full stretch just a minute into the second half.
There seemed to be a bit more urgency about Juve at the start of the second half, but just like in the first 45 minutes, they conceded when they were looking at their strongest.

Another Pirlo set-piece was the source of the danger and the slightest of flicks from Ronaldinho, which took a greater, unintended deflection of Zdenek Grygera, diverted the ball past Manninger and into the back of the Juve goal.
The goal prompted protests from the already irate Juve fans, whose patience with their team - and in particular their coach - reached boiling point.
Playing in a fog created by the home fans' burning of fireworks, as well as a few burning seats behind Manninger's goal, Ronaldinho's second and Milan's third goal almost went unnoticed.
It was Beckham who provided the cross to the Brazilian, who was given all the time in the world at the far post to stroke the ball home and complete another resounding win for the Rossoneri.

Milan 3-0 Sampdoria (The Race To End Serie A Title Drought )

The Blucerchiati were staring defeat in the face from the get-go as Marco Borrielo put the ahead in the first minute of the match before Clarence Seedorf adding a second in the 21st minute.
Ronaldinho was in inspired form, creating the first two goals, and fellow Brazilian Alexandre Pato completed Milan's fifth straight win in the 23rd minute to pile the misery on the Luigi Del Neri's side.
The visitors have now lost three games in the last week following a 3-0 reverse in the Genoa derby last Saturday and their elimination from the Coppa Italia at the hands of Livorno in midweekMilan got off to a flying start when former Genoa striker Borriello nodded in the opener

Antonio Cassano's weak pass was cut out by Luca Antonini, who raced forwards before spreading the ball wide to Ronaldinho.
His cross was lifted right between Sampdoria's two central defenders where Borriello was on hand to head in from seven yards out.
Ronaldinho was at the heart of every Milan attack, and looked a threat every time he touched the ball.
It was the former Barcelona man's pass in the 21st minute which led to the second goal.

He threaded the ball between two Samp defenders and into the path of Seedorf, who provided an emphatic finish to leave Luca Castellazzi with no chance as the ball flashed past him.
It was the Dutchman's 50th goal in Serie A - and surely one of his best.
Two minutes later Pato's determination earned him his seventh goal of the season.
He latched onto a Borriello header and, although his first shot was saved by Castellazzi, the ball fell kindly for him to place a shot into the net to end Samp's hopes with only a quarter of the match gone.

Milan coach Leonardo allowed himself the luxury of withdrawing Ronaldinho 10 minutes before half-time as the Brazilian felt a slight muscle twinge.
Ignazio Abate was introduced as Leonardo preferred not to risk perhaps his most important player ahead of Tuesday's decisive Champions League game away to FC Zurich.But there appeared to be no respite for Samp.
Abate sent in a cross which provided Pato with the chance to make it four, but his shot hit the back of Daniele Gastaldello from eight yards.

Another Abate cross almost gave Borriello his second goal, but Gastaldello again intervened to take the ball off the Milan striker's head.
Samp tried to respond and Antonio Cassano's long cross found Reto Ziegler at the far post, but the Swiss midfielder's shot was blocked.
It was the only shot of note Samp had all match as Milan defended their lead with ease and without having to expend too much energy ahead of Tuesday's match.

Hunterlaar Hits 2

In a tense and largely tame encounter at the Stadio Massimino, only Ronaldinho really managed to perform at the kind of level Milan fans have become used to from their side in recent weeks.
Catania failed to muster even one shot on goal, but they still deserved a point which was cruelly taken from them in stoppage time by Huntelaar, who broke the home fans' hearts with two goals to take Milan to within seven points of league leaders Inter Milan.
With Juve losing at Cagliari earlier today, Milan knew that a win in Sicily would take them up to second in the table and make them the nearest challenger to Inter.
But tiredness in the legs after being made to run for the full 90 minutes of their Champions League tie with Marseille on Wednesday meant they were not quite as sharp as usual.
Apart from Ronaldinho.

The Brazilian has recently found his best form since joining the Rossoneri from Barcelona almost 18 months ago and he single-handedly led Milan's search for three points.
His new-found confidence was illustrated by a number of skilful tricks, but the problem was finding team mates who could keep up with him when it came to providing the killer ball.
Clarence Seedorf offered himself as often as possible, but he was always a step behind the Brazilian playmaker and was restricted to shooting from distance by a Catania defence who constructed a wall around their penalty area.
The Dutchman found the side-netting with his first shot while his second was a few feet over the crossbar.

The closest he and either side came was in the 77th minute with his 25-yard effort just inches over the crossbar.
Catania were unable to test Milan goalkeeper Dida, but he still had to be alert in the 15th minute when Jorge Martinez was just inches away from making contact with a low cross.
Nicolas Spolli wasted a good chance to trouble Dida when he chose to just help a long ball forward rather than taking it down when he had time to do so after beating the Milan offside trap in the 71st minute.

Ronaldinho was one of the few players on the field not to show any tired legs late on and he came within millimetres of giving Milan the lead with a corner which landed directly on the top of the crossbar.
And just as it seemed like both sides had settled for a point, Milan substitute Huntelaar volleyed in his first goal for the club from edge of the area, although Catania goalkeeper Mariano Andujar will have to explain how he let the ball squirm under his body.
The goal lifted a huge burden from the Dutchman's shoulders and he added his and Milan's second moments later, lobbing Andujar from just inside the area with a goal that Ronaldinho would have been proud of.

AC Milan 1--1 Marseille( Now The Real Milan Will Be Tested)

AC Milan dropped to second in Group C of the Champions League on Wednesday as they were held to a 1-1 draw by Marseille at the San Siro.

Marco Borriello scored 10 minutes into the match for Milan, but his opener was canceled out six minutes later by Lucho Gonzalez.

Marseille then had two chances to win the match in the second half when Brandao struck the crossbar from close range, while Souleymane Diawara nodded the ball off the post with four minutes to play.

The result, combined with Real Madrid's 1-0 win over FC Zurich on Wednesday, leaves Milan two points back of the Spanish side, while Marseille is third, three points behind Real.

Milan nearly scored six minutes into the match when Gianluca Zambrotta was denied at close range by Marseille goalkeeper Steve Mandanda, but Mandanda was unable to keep out Borriello's effort four minutes later.

The Milan striker took a pass inside the box on the right, and after beating a defender, he drove the ball underneath the keeper from a tight angle.

It took Marseille six minutes to respond, however, as Mamadou Niang got to the end line and crossed the ball towards the front of goal. Milan goalkeeper Dida got his hand to the cross, but it ended up on the foot of Gonzalez, who smashed the ball into the empty net.

Mandanda needed to make a good save on Borriello midway through the opening half, while Pato chipped the keeper from the top of the box and the ball ended up on the roof of the net.

The home side controlled the early part of the second half, but they were fortunate not to fall behind in the 65th minute when Niang's cross was met in front of goal by Brandao, who somehow shot first-time off the crossbar from six yards.

A Marseille corner kick with four minutes to play nearly won the match for the French side as Diawara's header beat Dida but came back off the far post.

The Great Form Continues..Milan 4-3 Cagliari

Ronaldinho scored the game-winner on a penalty kick and AC Milan edged Cagliari, 4-3 on Sunday for its third straight win and fifth in its last six to climb to third in Italy's Serie A.
AC Milan won just two of its first seven league games this season, and dropped a Champions League match to Zurich in late September at the San Siro, but is unbeaten since in nine straight in all competitions.
Milan's run includes a 3-2 win at Real Madrid in the Champions League, and has the 17-time Italian champions within seven points of first-place Inter Milan.

AC Milan scored at least twice for the eighth time during its nine-game streak and Sunday's outburst was the first time the club has scored four goals this season.
Clarence Seedorf and Marco Borriello combined on the opener in the fifth, with Seedorf finishing from the center of the area to beat Cagliari goalie Federico Marchetti.
Alessandro Matri answered for Cagliari in the ninth, and Andrea Lazzari fired past Dida to hand the visitors the lead in the 30th before Milan scored three straight.

Pato helped set up Milan's third goal when he forced Marchetti to make a save, and Borriello was in the right place to head the rebound into the net in the 39th.
Pato found the net himself two minutes later, accepting a pass from Ronaldinho before shooting into the top corner.
Borriello drew a penalty in the 62nd that Ronaldinho converted to put AC Milan up two goals but Nene's 69th-minute goal for Cagliari left the result in doubt up to the final whistle.

It has been a fun of good result for Milan and great form showed by some of the players.Kaladze is totally ruin the chance given by Leo to him and put the most pathetic defending last night,with Nesta out injured it clearly show us how vulnerable we will be when the best in world isn't there to protect the defend.Thiago is looking nervous without Nesta guidance too and it also show how vital Nesta is to us.

With Ronnie,Pato and Boriello in superb form we manage to take this one in good attacking fashion.Dida is looking slightly shaky in the first with some unconvincing saves,but he redeem himself with a superb 2nd half.Something we should be focusing is Leo's act by introducing Strasser and Abate and refuse to slow down the pace of the match and intent to keep attacking and playing good football.Strasser come on to the surprise of us,Leo prove he is wiser in managing the youth players that we have by giving them a chance to at least show some of their ability.

A good run of great form by us and something we should continue come the Champions League Clash with Marseille in 2 days.Lets cheer forza Milan to them and hope for the great to not stopping till the end of season!!

Lazio 1-2 AC Milan

Thiago Silva put the Milan ahead in the 21st minute before Alexandre Pato extended his team's lead before the break.
Lazio reduced the arrears in the 64th minute when Silva deflected Mauro Zarate's strike into his own goal.
The hosts had chances to level the score but Milan held on to claim all three points.
The outcome means it is four wins in the last five league games for Leonardo's Milan while Lazio are still searching for their first triumph since August 30.
The hosts went into the game on the back of a 4-1 midweek humiliation at Villarreal in the Europa League.

Davide Ballardini's men enjoyed a good start and should have taken an early lead.
Roberto Baronio's pass found an unmarked Tommaso Rocchi inside the area and he fired wide.
Shortly after, Aleksandar Kolarov's left-footed strike forced Dida to make a good save.
At the other end, Lazio goalkeeper Fernando Muslera did well to keep out Massimo Oddo's strike from the edge of the area.
There was little Muslera could do to prevent the Rossoneri taking the lead as Silva latched onto a free-kick by Andrea Pirlo and nodded past Muslera.

The Rossoneri maintained the pressure and almost doubled their advantage soon after.
Pato did well to get behind Pirlo's cross from the right but his weak header proved an easy catch for Muslera.
The home side reacted and almost levelled the score on the half-hour mark when Zarate smashed in a powerful free-kick that Dida managed to palm over the bar.
Ten minutes before half-time and Pato made it 2-0.
Ronaldinho's cross found his fellow Brazilian inside the area and Pato's header went inside the top right-hand corner of the goal.

Dida made sure his team went into the break with a 2-0 lead, diving to his right to parry away Matuzalem's stinging drive from distance.
Ballardini made his first substitution after the re-start, with Julio Cruz replacing Stefano Mauri, but Milan's dominance continued in the second half.
Pirlo's curled free-kick went just over the bar.

Shortly after, Marco Borriello did well to control Pirlo's pass inside the area but was unable to fire on target.
On the hour mark, Massimo Ambrosini made a crucial clearance inside the area with Cruz ready to strike from close range.
Lazio reduced the deficit soon after, with Dida having no chance to save Zarate's deflected shot.

The goal inspired the hosts, who surged forward looking for an equaliser.
They were almost rewarded with 15 minutes remaining.
Meghni's cross from the left found Rocchi inside the area but his header went wide.
The visitors dominated the closing stages of the game.
Muslera made a great save to deny Flamini while the Lazio keeper was forced to fully stretch to clear Pato's bullet strike from the edge of the area in what was the last chance of the game.

Milan 1-1 Madrid

Karim Benzema gave Real the lead in the 29th minute, but Ronaldinho replied with a penalty ten minutes before the break.

Alexandre Pato had a goal controversially disallowed moments later before Dida denied Raul a late winner in a dramatic game at the San Siro.

Both coaches chose form over tradition with their team selections. Filippo Inzaghi, just one goal short of Gerd Muller's all-time record of 69 goals in European competition, was left on the Milan bench with Leonardo preferring Marco Borriello, who scored both goals in the 2-0 win over Parma at the weekend.

And Raul, who is just one goal behind Inzaghi on 67, was also benched as Real coach Manuel Pellegrini keeping his faith in Gonzalo Higuain, whose brace earned three points against Getafe.

Kaka was given a warm reception on his return to the San Siro but, after he inspired Real to a bright start, that applause soon turned to jeers.

Sergio Ramos and Benzema both sent shots inches wide of the post, with keeper Dida clearly beaten on both occasions. Milan threatened against the run of play when Clarence Seedorf sent Pato clear on Iker Casillas, but the Real goalkeeper kept his composure to save with his right hand.


Real then took a deserved lead in the 29th minute when Kaka skipped past Seedorf, who practically invited him to shoot. His effort took a slight deflection off Thiago Silva, which probably did enough to prevent Dida from holding onto the ball. It spilled into the path of Benzema, who shot into the far corner from a tight angle.

Milan responded and were gifted the chance to equalise when Gianluca Zambrotta's cross hit the arm of Pepe, just a yard away from him, inside the penalty area. Referee Felix Brych pointed to the penalty spot and Ronaldinho blasted the ball into the roof of the net.

The game was transformed and Milan looked to capitalise with Pato scoring what looked like a perfectly valid goal, but Brych saw something he did not like in the build-up and ruled it out.

There had been such a pace to the first half that the second 45 minutes simply could not carry on in the same manner, and so it was that the game lost its way slightly.

The best chance for Milan was squandered by Inzaghi - who, like Raul, was sent on as a final throw of the dice.

He was on the end of an inviting cross from Massimo Oddo in the 84th minute, but Pepe did just enough to unsettle the Milan striker, who lifted the ball over the crossbar from point-blank range. And Dida saved Milan in the 89th minute with a fine reflex save to turn Raul's shot behind for a corner when it looked like the Spaniards were going to steal victory.

Boriello Time To Shine!!

Marco Borriello netted both goals as AC Milan moved up to fourth in Serie A with victory over Parma at the San Siro.
Borriello was the Rossoneri's hero in a lacklustre clash between two sides who showed more tiredness than lucidity in their third game in six days.
Borriello opened the scoring in the 12th minute and added the winner in stoppage time to give Milan the best possible result in preparation for the visit of Real Madrid in the Champions League on Tuesday.

Milan perhaps had an eye on that clash but that did not tempt coach Leonardo into making any unnecessary changes to his team.
The in-form Ronaldinho kept his place in attack, where Borriello replaced Filippo Inzaghi with Luca Antonini in for the suspended Ignazio Abate.
Parma lined up with Paloschi, who is half-owned by Milan, leading their attack alongside Valeri Bojinov.


And Paloschi had the first chance of the game in the 10th minute with a fine dipping shot from 25 yards that needed a fingertip save from Dida to divert onto the crossbar.

Milan went ahead from their first attack of the game two minutes later, with Ronaldinho given the freedom to cover 50 yards before threading the ball, via a deflection, into the path of Borriello, who placed his shot between the legs of Antonio Mirante.

Parma still looked dangerous, with Bojinov forcing a fine save out of Dida to keep the Rossoneri ahead in the 23rd minute.
Pato should have doubled Milan's lead after half an hour but he lacked the conviction to reach Massimo Oddo's cross from eight yards out and his tame header went wide of the far post.

Daniele Galloppa should have done better at the other end when he was found himself free in the penalty area but his shot was weak and straight at Dida.
It seemed like nobody was really determined to score as Borriello allowed the next chance to go begging when he just stood pondering his options rather than shooting with only Mirante to beat after he was found by Ronaldinho.

Milan should have had a penalty in the 69th minute when Pato slipped the ball between two Parma defenders and was tripped by Francesco Lunardini as he tried to follow the ball through but the referee waved play on.
That decision almost proved costly for Milan, who saw Paloschi break through at the other end and volley just wide.

But Parma simply did not have the ideas or the strength to make a game of it in a tedious second half in which Milan looked to conserve energy for their midweek Champions League game and Parma showed they are not used to having to play three games in a week.

Thiago Silva almost wrapped up the win three minutes from time when he headed against the crossbar from point-blank range.
Borriello did seal the win in stoppage time with a scissor-kick goal from another Ronaldinho assist.

Kaka Who? Who Cares When We Have Pato!!!

Its the richest vs the poor,the striving vs the problematic,the stars vs the old legs but who cares?
at the end, it felt like a classic but mostly it had not been. Sixteen European Cups, two European Footballers of the Year, over a thousand European goals, and hundreds of millions worth of signings and yet for long periods this was a game defined by two goalkeeping errors. But two wonderful strikes and a final 15 minutes played in increasingly wide spaces led to a dramatic 88th-minute winner from Alexandre Pato that elevated the game to a status fitting of its billing as the “Derby of Europe”.

By the time the whistle went mistakes from Iker Casillas and, especially, Dida were forgotten. A wonderful goal from Andrea Pirlo had equalised Madrid’s opener.

A superb strike from Royston Drenthe equalised the goal that put Milan in the lead, to set up a rousing finish and a huge victory for Milan. Madrid had one disallowed for offside; so, more mysteriously, did Milan. And then, in the final minute, Pato volleyed home to make it 3-2.

After 15 minutes Gianluca Zambrotta appeared to go through Karim Benzema’s legs to challenge for the ball as the Frenchman closed in on the six-yard box. It looked like a penalty, but the Belgian referee Frank de Bleeckere signalled a goal-kick.

The decision bought whistles from the stands but Madrid did not need to wait long for the opening goal. It came on 19 minutes, thanks to an extraordinary mistake from Dida.

He easily got behind a weak shot from Esteban Granero, patted the ball down on to the turf and took a step forward only for the ball to hit his thigh and drop loose. Fifteen years and 711 Real Madrid games later, Raul’s legs may be slower, but there is nothing wrong with his mind and he dashed in to apply the finish for his 66th European Cup goal.

Watching Ronaldinho grow increasingly frustrated, unable to produce the magic he once could was a sad sight; Milan’s impotence looked complete. And then, suddenly, incredibly, just after the hour they were level. Pirlo collected the ball from a throw-in 35 yards out and took aim and the ball dipped and whistled past Casillas at his right-hand post. The silence spoke of surprise. It was only Milan’s second shot on target.

Their third came only four minutes later and with the same outcome. Ambrosini’s curling ball dropped beyond the hesitating Raul Albiol, Casillas came for it and misjudged it, allowing it to skid beyond him. Pato maintained his balance to roll it into an empty net.

We Are Back!!

Ronaldinho inspired 10-man AC Milan to only their third win of the season with a come-from-behind 2-1 success against AS Roma at the San Siro.While the first half in Milan belonged to Roma's French winger Jeremy Menez, it was Ronaldinho who starred after the break, scoring one and creating the other -- and quite possibly saving countryman Leonardo's job as coach -- before captain Massimo Ambrosini was sent off late on.

The result moved Milan up to eighth in the Serie A table with Roma dropping to 11th.Roma, and Menez in particular, tore Milan apart in the first half.But it was with a helping hand from Milan centre-back Thiago Silva that the visitors went in front as Menez pounced on his fluffed back pass on three minutes and shrugged off the Brazilian's shirt pulling before beating goalkeeper Dida.A minute later Menez surged into the box again but this time his angle was more difficult and he shot straight at Dida.On 20 minutes he was in behind the defence a third time, however under pressure from Silva he shot wide as he fell.Moments later Daniele De Rossi drove forward unchallenged from midfield and brought a fine one-handed stop out of Dida.Menez burst into life again on 38 minutes as he teed up Mirko Vucinic, whose first touch was sublime to take him past Alessandro Nesta but he then hesitated and Dida blocked his weak shot.

Finally Milan created something on the counter-attack a minute later and Roma goalkeeper Doni had to tip a shot from Clarence Seedorf onto the post after the Dutchman benefited from a fortunate ricochet in the box.Leonardo had to react and he did by bringing on evergreen striker Filippo Inzaghi for midfielder Ignazio Abate and within two minutes Inzaghi's header from an Andrea Pirlo corner had been cleared off the line by David Pizarro.
Milan needed a helping hand to get back into the match and they got it with a highly contentious penalty award after Nesta crumbled under Nicolas Burdisso's challenge in the box.
Ronaldinho despatched the penalty on 56 minutes and the winner came from a moment of quality on 67 minutes as Ronaldinho's long diagonal ball found Pato, whose control on his chest was sublime and took John Arne Riise out of play before he rounded Doni and slotted home.

Its Ronaldinho night for sure,with Nesta as strong as ever we manage to overcome tough challenge from Roma.Pato,Abate,Thiago and Seedorf is at top form for this match too and its add to a more confidence display from Milan.
A step to the big clash with Real and i must say its a promising look comeback from the international week.
Some players is still looking doubtful but with Leo guide lets pray and hope for a big win and great showmanship in the match to come!!

Its The Pippo Factor!!

Filippo Inzaghi scored twice, including the match-winner in the 74th minute, helping AC Milan pick up a huge road win Tuesday in its return to Champions League play, 2-1 at Marseille.
AC Milan missed the Champions League last season, but Inzaghi returned to form with his 67th and 68th career goals in European competitions.
Inzaghi scored the opener at the rainy Stade Velodrome, and shocked the French side with his second goal midway through the second half - which Marseille had dominated.
Gabriel Heinze scored Marseille's goal in the 49th, but now the French club is in a big hole in Group C, which also features Real Madrid.



Milan got control of the first half in the 28th when Inzaghi, an Italian World Cup winner, managed to stay onside before latching onto a perfect cross to the right post from Clarence Seedorf. Inzaghi placed a right-footed shot from just a few yards out inside the right post for his 67th goal in European play.
Marseille nearly answered before half, but AC Milan goalie Marco Storari made his only save in the opening 45 minutes to deny Benoit Cheyrou. The Marseille midfielder found enough space at the top of the area to unleash a left-footed shot, but Storari dove to his right to knock the ball wide.
The French side took control less than five minutes after the break, though, when Heinze headed a free kick from Cheyrou through Storari's legs in the 49th minute.

Lucho Gonzalez, who nearly leveled seconds earlier, earned a free kick on the right side and Cheyrou delivered a perfect pass to Heinze. The Argentine raced away from AC Milan defender Massimo Oddo and used the pace of the pass to snap a header down and past Storari.
Heinze's goal ignited the sold out crowd in Marseille, and the energy was also apparent on the field as the home side continued to pressure Milan in the hard soaking rain.
Cheyrou had one of the better chances in the following 10 minutes but his shot from the right, that was dipping inside the far post, was saved by Storari.

Although Marseille dominated the first 30 minutes of the second half, AC Milan created a quick scoring chance in the 74th and Inzaghi buried his second goal. Off a short free kick on the left, Milan found Seedorf on the top left edge of the area, and he chipped a quick pass to the far post to a charging Inzaghi.
Inzaghi slid in just in front of a Marseille player and poked the ball toward the left post from 10 yards out, hitting the back of the net for the 68th goal of his career in European competitions.
AC Milan held on the for the win, and sits behind Real on goal differential.

Fucking Bad Sign!!

AC Milan were held to a dull 0-0 draw at promoted Livorno.

Leonardo's side, hammered 4-0 by Inter Milan in the derby before the international break, gave a first start to former Real Madrid striker Klaas Jan Huntelaar with Marco Borriello injured but they could not break down an organised defence.

Milan, who won their opening encounter at Siena, lacked creativity early on with Andrea Pirlo spending the first half on the bench after recent exertions for Italy.

He came on for the again ineffective Ronaldinho early in the second period and soon hit the bar with a free kick but it was the closest the visitors came. Huntelaar was also replaced by Filippo Inzaghi.

Livorno, who had two players with their names spelt incorrectly on the back of their shirt, threatened sporadically and could easily have won.

Stuttering Milan must now prepare for their return to the Champions League in the clash at Marseille on Tuesday.

This game resemble how bad things are for us now,The lack of idea,creativity,pace and penetration nearly cause us badly.Livorno is at the same level with us at every position,we failed to work it as what the hype before the season started that Leo will play an attractive type football.

If this is the attractive way of playing football perhaps we should quit staying up(for asian) just to see such an disgraceful display from the team.
Imagine if we dont have Thiago Silva to conduct the defend,we would have lose this match easily.Ronnie dont show any improvement(still bullshitting on the pitch)the wingbacks is horrible the midfield is jaded the striker lacks confidence.

The question is how long can we rely on this kind of form and hope to conquered Serie A and UCL?
Theres big problem from the top to the bottom of AC Milan but who is the one to blame??

Its 4-0 Defeat!!

Inter Milan made clear their intention to retain the Serie A title, drubbing AC Milan 4-0 Saturday in a city derby that the Devils played for the most part with 10 men.
Brazilian Thiago Motta and Argentine Diego Milito, two arrivals from Genoa, had already put Inter up two goals when Gennaro Gattuso was sent off with a second yellow card.
A third goal sank the Devils' hopes before the break as Brazil defender Douglas Maicon beat Marco Storari off a Milito assist.

The win was secured in a matter of 15 minutes through an impressive display of offensive power that made Inter fans forget the embarrassing 1-1 home draw against promoted Bari that they had to watch a week earlier.
Milan had produced a good pressing in the first 20 minutes, threatening with a spurt from Frenchman Mathieu Flamini, while Brazilian Ronaldinho misfired off a precious feed from his fast compatriot Pato.
A further threat forced Inter's Brazil goalkeeper Julio Cesar to slap a dangerous cross to prevent Marco Borriello's close-range flick, but Inter gradually improved their game and secured the outcome before the break.



Motta opened the scoring on 29 minutes, stunning Storari with a classy volley off a piercing assist from Milito, who on 36 minutes converted a spot kick after Gattuso floored Samuel Eto'o as he headed for the goal off a long Maicon feed.
Inter's win was virtually secured 10 minutes later with the dismissal of Gattuso, who received a second yellow card for downing Dutch newcomer Wesley Sneijder.
With Milan on the ropes, Brazil defender Lucio had a tight-angle shot blocked by Storari before Maicon's third goal off yet another great assist from Milito.
There was little thrill in a second half that saw Inter control the game and beef up their tally through a
smashing long-range shot drilled by Serb Dejan Stankovic in the top right corner.

Its 11 vs 10(evev when 11 vs 11 we are pretty much pork shit),Some players looks a bit lost,Pirlo was not the creative head he always be,Borriello is stuck in upfront,Ronnie shows his unconsistant display once again.Flamini is the reason to smile for our midfield.The central defend lead by Nesta and Thiago looks steady but Janku is bullshitting out there on the pitch,perhaps now the baldie is starting to regret his decision to not buying any wingback this transfer season,Leonardo's early worries have come true thats his demand for Berlu to get a rock solid attacking wingbacks,as usual Berlu will deny his request and this first 2 match peformence by the wingbacks is a total disgrace.Theres a weakness in Milan's squad and no doubt about that but the 4-0 beating is a NIGHTMARE but if i can give a comfort word to us,i'll say we lose because Gattuso wasn't there(bad comforting words).2nd match and its the early sign of the bad beating to come through out the season.Pray for the last minutes buy Milanista.

First Game..First Win..First Step

Alexandre Pato scored twice, each time set up by Ronaldinho, as We opened our Italian Serie A season with a 2-1 win at Siena on Saturday.
Pato opened the scoring in the 29th off a direct assist from fellow Brazilian Ronaldinho and added the game-winner early off an assist from Mathieu Flamini, who easily set up Pato after a brilliant pass from Ronaldinho.

We have lost the former FIFA World Player of the Year Kaka to Real Madrid, handed new coach Leonardo a win in his debut.
Milan had a few chances early, with Ronaldinho setting up Pato in the 29th on a perfect pass to open the scoring. Ronaldinho delivered a pass to the right side of the box for Pato, who picked out the left side and drove a shot off the hands of Siena goalie Gianluca Curci and into the left side of the net.

Our defensive players should be the one to blamed as Abdelkader Ghezzal tied the match just five minutes later. Lukas Jarolim set up the easy goal with a hard blast, which AC Milan goalie Marco Storari could only knock down in front of the net. Ghezzal slid in at the right post and drilled the rebound into the net.
Milan regrouped at halftime and regained the lead in the 47th when Ronaldinho set up Flamini and he provided Pato with an easy finish for his second goal of the match.

Massimo Maccarone had Siena's first scoring chance of the second half, but hit a shot well wide from just eight yards out.
Ronaldinho continued to display his vintage form in the 68th, settling a pass at the top of the area with his right leg and, with his back go goal, got off a bicycle kick that Curci had to knock away from the upper corner.



The first match that signified how comfortable Ronnie is as the Trequartista for us,his always sharp passing technique have made a clear different towards the match outcome.Pato's maturity is so vital and he have certainly shows the kinda result as we expected from him since the departure of Kaka.Pato have bring the sweet memory of watching the old Sheva,the passion and the awareness that he puts on is the reason we should not even think about selling him,the most lively player of the game.
Thiago Silva is the one that caught my eyes and his contribution last night brings a little bit of hope to out defensive line up and his strong display significantly improve the quality of the weaken backline of Milan.Nesta have been a little bit off form since he is just back from bad injury and is not looking good at the preseason game too.
The midfields is a little bit frustrating to see with Gattuso looking shaky and so do the Pirlo of all people but Flamini gave the most impression with the best match he have play for us,hardworking as ever and the engine behind Ronnie.Goodbye to seedorf if he continue playing like this and consistently making milan more and more steady at the midfield.

We have the players and the wise Leo to ensure a wonderful season ahead,but doesn't the squad look a little bit lacking in terms of subs if the Ronnie,Pato and Thiago get injured?

Huntelaar For Us..

AC Milan reached a deal with Real Madrid to sign striker Klaas-Jan Huntelaar, ending the player's unhappy eight-month spell with the Spanish club.
The Dutch forward arrived in Milan Thursday to sign his new contract, and the club said he would have his medical exam on Friday.

"We have a deal with Real Madrid," Milan vice president Adriano Galliani told Italy's Sky Sport 24 TV channel. "All that's missing is the player's medical exams and the economic agreement with the player."

AC Milan and the city of Milan "hold a special place for us Dutch," the Italian news agency Apcom quoted Huntelaar as saying after he arrived at Malpensa airport.

"I know Marco Van Basten. He was my trainer at Ajax as well as for the national team," Huntelaar said, referring to the former Netherlands striker who spent much of his career with Milan in the late 1980s and early 90s.

"I really want to train and to begin a real adventure," Huntelaar said.
Galliani did not disclose details of the deal with Madrid, saying only that Huntelaar would not be on loan but would transfer permanently to Milan.
Madrid also confirmed Huntelaar's transfer on its Web site.

Spanish sports daily Marca reported Thursday that Milan was prepared to pay between euro15 million (C$23 million) and euro18 million (C$27.8 million) for Huntelaar in a deal welcomed by Madrid, which is keen to offload players before the start of the season.

Madrid has spent euro254 million ($392 million) on eight players including Cristiano Ronaldo and Kaka since Florentino Perez returned to the club presidency in June
So far, the club has raised a reported euro15 million (C$23 million) through the sales of Javier Saviola and Javi Garcia to Benfica and Daniel Parejo to Getafe.
Expected to follow Huntelaar out of Madrid is his compatriot Rafael van der Vaart.

There are doubts over the futures of three more Dutchmen - Ruud van Nistelrooy, Arjen Robben and Wesley Sneijder - together with Mali's Mahamadou Diarra.
Huntelaar, who turns 26 next week, made only 13 first-team starts after joining Madrid from Ajax for euro20 million (C$30.9 million) in December when Ramon Calderon was the Spanish club's president.

However, a miscalculation by Madrid meant Huntelaar was ineligible to play in the second stage of the Champions League. Madrid was unaware that clubs could only field one new player who had played in European competition earlier in the season. Midfielder Lassana Diarra, the team's other transfer window signing, was picked instead.

Madrid recently agreed to transfer Huntelaar to Stuttgart for a reported fee of euro18 million (C$27.8 million) but the Netherlands' striker rejected the move and the deal collapsed.

Dzeko Is Milan's Primary Target

The Rossoneri have money to spend following their record-breaking sale of Brazilian superstar Kaka to Real Madrid.

While they are unlikely to reinvest all of the cash generated from that departure, they are keen to ensure that an adequate replacement is acquired.

Wolfsburg frontman Dzeko has been indentified as a suitable option and Milan are keen to step up their interest in the talented 23-year-old.

"We are still hopeful of getting him," said Milan general manager Adriano Galliani.

"The man himself should have a say about his future.

"It is difficult to keep a player who is unhappy, that is a rule which applies to everybody and is the law of the market."

THANKS PAOLO,THANKS CARLETTO AND THANK YOU GUYS

AC Milan clinched the third automatic Champions League place after comfortably winning 2-0 at fourth-placed Fiorentina on a day of goodbyes for Serie A on Sunday.
Brazilians Kaka and Alexandre Pato netted in the second half in Paolo Maldini's last game before retirement and the final match in charge for Carlo Ancelotti, who is now widely expected to join Chelsea.

"Today is the moment to say thanks because this club has given me eight splendid years," Ancelotti told reporters.
The match was also David Beckham's last for Milan until at least the end of the year. He plans to return to the San Siro from parent club Los Angeles Galaxy if a deal is reached.
Fiorentina could have snatched third spot with a handsome win, which would have put them level with Milan but with a better head-to-head record, but instead they will have to settle for the Champions League qualifiers next term

Final season for Maldini and Carletto,overall the season's achievement have been quite hard to rate.The season first expectation is we will be fighting hard and won back the Serie A with the addition of RONALDINHO to Milan's line up,the other expectation is to won the Uefa Cup and claim the least silverware the europe can offer us.Tactics of our coach Carletto have been question again and again through out the season,so its not surprising for so many Ultras who have voice their dissapointment over the mix strategy and confusion Carletto have brought this season.

The injury of key players such as Nesta and Gattuso have gave the most negatif impact to Milan's progress in each cup we are fighting for,not to forget the shortage of power in upfront where Milan have not been impressive with the injury to Marco Borriello.
The up and down of players performence is something that i found very wierd in a way where the perform brilliantly for one match and failed to did the same in the folllowing weekend.Seedorf,Favvalli,Ambro,Pirlo,Ronnie,Sheva and even Kaka have sometimes failed to keep the good form going to even better.This have cause us the Uefa cup and Serie A.

The debate about the total clean up for Milan for the young players to get us back to winning form is still going hot.The decision to bring back the youth that we have loan out is the one the fans have welcome the most.The Becks factor have made us arguing of whether he will be a player worth wearing the Rossoneri jersey but he have us wrong with a consistent performence and gave milan the most critical help at the very critical time for us.I say he should dump Galaxy and come to Milan to play his last gasp of footie action before he call it quits.

The Kaka transfer saga to Man.city have gave us a few points to look at to.The interest Berlu have show in the money Man.city have put on the table and the keen Kaka and his family have show also made us become a little bit concern of how the outcome would be for us.He then decides to stay and pledge his future to Milan.Now we have finished 3rd and will be compiting in the Champions League.It will not going to be easy as what the Itallian have suffer this season.The new players the new look the new style the new philosophy will be add as Carletto bids farewell.

Carletoo,Thanks for many wonderful season that have make me cry in joy and pain.Thanks for the Serie A,Thanks for bringing in The champions league,Thanks for the sacrifise.Thank You Carletto.
Thanks To Il Capitano,Paolo will always be remebered as the best player ever in the history of the football,not even Pele and Marradonna can achieve such things as what he have contribute to Italy,Milan and the footballing world directly or indirectly.
Thanks friends for wonderful season of football from us,thanks for giving the very best comment and tagging the best videos,displaying the best and funniest photos and cheering the Forza Milan for so many days this season.

Your Truly

AC MILAN 2-3 AS ROMA(LET'S KILL THE REF!!)

Paolo Maldini's final Serie A appearance at the San Siro ended on a losing note as AC Milan slipped to a 3-2 defeat against Roma in a thrilling match.
The visitors twice lost the lead as Massimo Ambrosini scored a second-half brace before being sent off after Francesco Totti's 85th-minute winner.
The result seals Roma's place in the Europa League, while Milan are all-but certain of securing a spot in the Champions League group stages due to a vastly superior goal difference to Fiorentina, who go into the final round of matches three points adrift of a place in the top three.

Full-back John Arne Riise and French forward Jeremy Menez scored Roma's first two.
Pre-match talk revolved around Maldini's impending retirement and the continued speculation regarding manager Carlo Ancelotti's potential move to Chelsea and perhaps unsurprisingly it was Roma who started the game more focused.
With five minutes gone the lively Totti spotted a gap and drilled a shot just wide from 35 yards, before teeing up Philippe Mexes four minutes later, only for the centre-half to miss with a speculative attempt.

Totti continued to try his luck, again shooting from range as the home defence sat a little deep.
While his first attempts had been hopeful, the Italy striker made Rossoneri goalkeeper Dida work after half an hour, forcing a smart save from the Brazilian.
With nine minutes to go before the break, Riise went one better, burying a left-footed free-kick into the top corner from 30 yards.

With fans protesting loudly against owner Silvio Berlusconi and Milan continuing to suffer stage fright on Maldini's big day, things were close to getting even worse, with Mirko Vucinic unlucky not to make it 2-0 seconds before half-time.
Clarence Seedorf replaced David Beckham at the interval but the second half started slowly and it was not until the hour mark that the game truly cranked into gear, Andrea Pirlo lashing a right-footed drive just wide of the post.

Nevertheless, it was not until 15 minutes from time that the second goal was scored, Filippo Inzaghi laying the ball to Ambrosini for him to blast home from the centre of the box.
Parity lasted only five minutes with Menez collecting a Riise pass before burying the ball in the bottom corner.
By now, the action had sped up considerably and it was 2-2 within a minute.

Kaka was the provider this time, with Ambrosini again providing the finish.
The scene was set for Totti, perhaps unfortunate not to already on the scoreboard, and he gleefully claimed it, hammering home a free-kick with five minutes left to seal victory.
Ambrosini, meanwhile, blotted his copy book somewhat when he was sent off in the 88th minute

Never Stop Believing Milanistas

Second-placed Milan failed to close the gap on Inter after going down to European-chasing Udinese to give Inter their fourth straight Scudetto and Jose Mourinho's first in charge.
Gaetano D'Agostino gave Udinese the lead on 31 minutes from the penalty spot after Paolo Maldini in his 900th appearance for Milan felled Antonio Floro Flores inside the box.

Things got worse for the visitors when Cristian Zapata doubled Udinese's lead three minutes after the break with a close-range volley.
Massimo Ambrosini pulled a goal back for AC Milan in the closing seconds, but it was too little too late for the Rossoneri as city rivals secured their 17th Serie A title.


Thats sum up the dull season of Serie A football,the winner is a team full of bullshit including the players,backroom staff and the owner.Now its the fight for the 2nd spot and by losing to Udinese,we have to compete with another merda to capture the automatic spot for The Champions League.

We the Milanistas want the proper transfer strategy to ensure next season's success,of course it will be the same battle between the merda and us but we have to be the scary team to play next season not like yesterday when Carletto said that Udinese is a tough team to play.

We tired of being second best in everything and making the best out of the transfer season by making WORLD CLASS purchased will only do goods for us not the opposite.
Lets pray for a better last few games and pray for a better next season.
Like my friend Vitmaver use to say..
Never Stop Believing...
