Wow guys, San Siro is full and you can hear all Milan fans chanting for the rossoneri!
Both teams going to the field and my heart pounds of emotion to see our Milanisti. It's the UEFA Cup Group Stage E Matchday 2.
Here is the starting eleven formation for AC Milan by Coach Carlo Ancelotti:
Goalkeeper: Dida;
Defenders: Luca Antonini, Senderos, Kakha kaladze, Marek Jankulovski;
Midfielders: Gennaro Gattuso, Emerson, Mathieu Flamini;
Forwards: Andriy Shevchenko, Filippo Inzaghi, Pato.
Here is the starting eleven fromation for Braga by Coach Jorge Jesus:
Goalkeeper: Eduardo;
Defenders: Frechaut, Moises, Rodriguez, Evaldo;
Midfielders: Vadinho, Alan, Cesar Peixoto, Luis Aguiar;
Forwards: Renteria, Meyong.
It's showtime! Referee Rasmussen whistles the beginning of the match. Guys, in the absence of Maldini and Massimo Ambrosini, the captain is Gennaro Gattuso. Great choice for our roaring lion!
News is AC Milan Coach Carlo Ancelotti using a tridente! Sheva-Inzaghi-Pato. It's a 4-3-3. Dida in the starting lineup instead of goalkeeper Zeljko Kalac. Ronaldinho and Seedorf on the bench. Clearly, Ancelotti is giving resting time for both and unless he really needs them, they will rest to have more energies on Sunday for the Serie A Week 11 match against Lecce.
Unbelievable, Inzaghi almost scored in the 4th minute! Defender Marek Jankulovski provides the cross from the left hand side and Super Pippo coming fast to head the ball just to miss the target to the left. Wow,,, it would have been a great start. Come on Forza Milan!!!
Immediately, a move by AC Milan forward Andriy Shevchenko coming from the right hand side but the ball went over the bar. Hey, guys, Milan is pressing. This is the way to go playing aggressive and trying to score in the first 15 minutes.
Suddenly, I see more domination from Braga! Wonder what's going on with the rossoneri. Just hope things change because Braga is having more goal opportunities.
Guys, midfielder Mathieu Flamini not having a good match. I hope to see Pato scores.
In the 35th minute, Braga forward Albert Ze Meyong commits a foul on Milan defender Mathieu Flamini and is a free kick for Milan. Taking the free kick is Milan defender Luca Antonini with a right footed shot ... nothings happen.
Hello, what's going with Ze Meyong!!!! In the 37th minute Meyong commits another foul, now on Luca Antonini!
In the 40th minute great chance for Super Pippo Inzaghi with a headed ball but the ball goes over the bar.
In the 41st minute, Braga midfielder Peixoto commits a foul on Emerson and is free kick for Milan. Gattuso shoots the freekick with a right footed shot making a pass and is blocked by Braga defender Rodriguez. Uuffaaaa!! Come on Milan!!!
Unbelievable, first half is over and no goals. Some Milan fans are getting impatient. So do I!!!
Second half starts with Braga making their first substitution. Meyong out, Paulo Cesar in.
Just about time Meyong is out, he was making many fouls.
Milan fans start to whistle the team! Hello, I was expecting a different match. In the first 15 minutes Milan was more aggressive then Braga gained confidence.
In the 64th minute, AC Milan coach Carlo Ancelotti makes his first substitution. Pato out, Ronaldinho in.
In the 69th minute, Milan makes the second substitution. Emerson out, Clarence Seedorf in. Well, I agree with the change because Milan needs to create more speed and work the midfield. Dinho and Seedorf might bring a faster rhythm.
Hey, what a save by Milan goalkeeper DIDA!!! In the 70th minute, Braga midfielder Luis Aguiar almost silence San Siro with a shot testing Dida!!!! Dida saves and Milan VP Adriano Galliani shows a face of relief.
Guys, 10 more minutes!!! Still 0-0!!!! Where is Milan??? Where are the goals???
Oh wow, !!! Stand up San SIRO!!!! In the 91st minute, in extremis, in an agonizing moment and what a GOAL!!!
Ronaldinho Gaucho saves Milan with a great goal after an assist by midfielder Gennaro Gattuso. Dinho with a right footed shot from about 30 yards sends the ball to the top left corner blasting Braga goalkeeper and giving a great joy to Milan fans in San Siro who were whistling the team!!!
Click the video to watch the goal of Ronaldinho. It is just "a last minute victory and Ronaldinho becoming again Milan's savior like he did in the Milan Derby." Thumbs up also for our captain the courageous roaring lion Gattuso for making the assist!
Bravo Ronaldinho.. you are bringing goals and joy as you promised!!!
