Even at this age , miracles do happen.
We should not have even come close, this was the Barcelona dream team, we were merely the worst Milan fielded in over 20 years.
Yet somehow today I saw the passion of 11 players on the pitch, wanting to take down this giant.
Barcelona only had one shot on target all game. This must be some kind of record as they have never played this bad before. Milan marked out every player Messi had never look more lost in a game in recent times.
Ironically , it was a former pair of Portsmouth players, Ghana players that slayed the mighty beast, of Barcelona but every player played the game of their lives. This was the only reason we came as close as we did.The first goal came through a Montolivo free kick which riccishaded against Zapata's hand and into the path of Prince whom did not wait for a whistle and blasted it past Valdes.
Barca became impatient and begun fadding away from the game as Milan mustered terrific counters.
Milan played like kings today and deservedly slayed
Final Thoughts
Pique never beat milan.Great dad!
Ambrosini is a big game player
Stephan is truly class, he performed defenisvley well for a forward
Abbiati barely touch the Ball!
Possibly Messi's worst match in a long time
Milan's Best
*Note: This was not easy, nearly every player on the pitch could have gotten a vote*
3.Prince: Scored a great goal, defensivley superb in midfield and contributed to the attack
2.Montolivo : Helped Milan hold onto the ball when they had it.Organised the attacks for them.
1. El Sharaaway: His best performance this season and he didn't even score a goal. Though he did have the chance early on. He defendedly beauitfuly when needed and was always leading the counter attack.
We still have a long way to go in the 2nd leg, but I have never been more proud of the boys.
