Zurich 0 Milan 1

Milan have been lucky over the last couple of games. Can't deny that. We scored an offside goal against Inter and somehow managed to scrape past Zurich. Kudos to the Zurich attack that helped us achieve this result. I personally would have been pleased with a draw as well.

Milan in the 1st half were exposed at the back. Surprisingly, the Zurich attack was so bad that Dida dint have to even move a muscle. What caught my eye was the excellence of the sync of play upfront. Ronaldinho+Seedorf+Kaka+Shevchenko=Mesmerising!!

Zurich defense was left pleading for mercy. Ronaldinho has probably gotten Laporta thinking if selling the Brazilian was a wise decision after all. Seedorf has certainly done away with his personal differences with the the 'Gaucho'. And then the goalscorer, Andriy. Abrahamovic's best friend is showing return to form. He was a constant threat to the Zurich defense. This goal will certainly do great deal of good to the confidence of the striker. This is his first goal for Milan since the return from the Blues. The chip from Ronaldinho leading to the goal was one of his trademark moves.

Now coming to the controversial penalty. I agree it was a penalty. Zambrotta's awful sense of tackling was displayed again. And Milan were not punished. Maybe if the penalty was given, the scoreline could have been very different.
Antonini is a player for the future and he is a handy player, want him to stay in the team. Emerson, what you 'still' doing in the team mate?? Kaladze and Favalli were injured, and I could not be happier with an injury to one of the squad players of my favorite club. Bonera is a better right back but Ancelloti prefers to play him at center,the gaffer has certainly lost his screws. Flamini and Ambrosini were ok, wouldn't want to expand on the attack, as i have already mentioned how good they were

Milan take on Cagliari in the weekend, and here is hoping for the a 'Cagliarian Demolition'.
