Before writing this post I briefed over an article in the English news press that reviewed the
game. The English view of it is that Milan were 'awful' and 'deserved to lose' and that they did so
in 'disgraceful' fashion. Admittedly, the scenes did get ugly last night. Gattuso was repeatedly
involved in altercations with [.
It was the first real test for Milan in their preseason and despite penalties being required to
separate the two sides, it was a less than convincing performance from Max Allegri's league
champions. Milan started the contest in relatively positive fashion and it did not take long for
the away side to open the scoring [.
If there ever was a match that highlighted how a football game can be a story of two halves, it was
this one. AC Milan managed to claim the Italian Super Cup in Beijing but only after coming back
from one nil down with two goals in the second half. In typical fashion Max Allegri's [...]
AC Milan faced juventus and Inter Milan tonight in Bari and unfortunately the red and blacks did
not have victory over them. Antonio Cassano scored a goal for Milan but a late goal from Alessandro
Matri saw the Bianconeri win the first 45 minutes match by two goals to one. AC Milan later faced
Inter [.
After last Wednesday came to an end and no big signing was announced, I must admit I was
disappointed. Like last year when the club landed two great players late in the transfer window I
was hopeful the club would do so again. Far from arbitrary, the promises of the fabled Mr. X gave
my [...]
After last night's draw with Udinese, Milan remain winless after three rounds played which makes it
official: this is the club's worst start to a season since 1997. Back then, the Rossoneri failed to
beat Piacenza in their opening game, only managing a draw. Then against Lazio they were denied by a
late Giuseppe Signori [.
If ever anyone needed convincing that a football match is divided into two 45 minutes games, this
is the one you would sit them down to watch. An incredible rollercoaster ride it was for us fans
whilst for neutrals it would have been first class entertainment. So often maligned for being
defensive and boring, this [.
Last night Milan put on a display that was worthy of a championship winning side. It was not the
greatest performance and for the last thirty five minutes of the game they played with ten men, but
despite not being at their best the Rossoneri still managed to score two goals to claim victory and
[...
Last night Milan played host to Lazio in a clash where the Rossoneri were eager to continue on in
their winning ways. It was an ill tempered match and one that from the start showed that only one
team was ready to play, and that was Milan. Lazio, on the other hand, were happy to [...]
Milan's grip on top spot is now under real threat. A second consecutive draw has seen Napoli climb
to within three points whilst Inter are just five points behind with a game still in hand. The
Rossoneri have looked short of ideas in their last two matches and as a result have struggled to
create [..
Yesterday Milan got their title challenge back on track with a comprehensive four nil victory over
Chievo. Clarence Seedorf got the ball rolling with his opener before Antonio Cassano opened his
account for the club with his first goal. In the second half Milan closed the game out with two
goals from Robinho both superbly [.

Following the midweek loss to Tottenham Milan seemed to be suffering a hangover against Chievo. The
side was lacklustre throughout the whole match displaying no rhythm in their play. But,
importantly, in the end all three points were collected and for a side chasing the Scudetto this is
all that matters.
Last night it was party time in Milan as the Rossoneri paraded through the streets to celebrate the
club's 18th Scudetto. It was an unforgettable night for all Milanisti not just in Milan or Italy
but around the world and it all started with the team's hammering of Cagliari. Max Allegri's side
did not need [.
Last night Milan were eliminated from the Coppa Italia after yet another defeat against Palermo in
Sicily. After clinching the title last weekend and with the trophy parade set for this weekend for
the club's last home game of the season, it was a loss that will put a slight damper on this week's
celebrations.
It was not Milan's best performance of the season, but, few will care after it was enough to see
Milan clinch the Scudetto for the eighteenth time. It is a success that is fully deserved as the
Rossoneri have been by far the most consistent team throughout the season. As for the match against
Roma, [.
When someone sent me a link for the line-ups for the Berlusconi Trophy on Twitter, I will admit
that I was not overly confident of a win. My response, in fact, was that Juve would be the
favourites if these were the two teams that were to take to the field. And there was good [...]
We Milan fans are lucky. Many a night have we been blessed with magical moments in Europe's premier
club competition, the Champions League. The greatest recent memory was the year of 2007. Italian
football was a mess after Calciopoli reshaped and distorted the Serie A as a viably competitive
league. Forget the Azzurri's triumph in [.
Milan have finally notched up a win. What a relief. Heading into the game the team was languishing
in 16th position after the club's worst start to a campaign in 14 years. But, with this win over
Cesena Max Allegri's team have leapfrogged to 8th on the table, albeit temporarily. It was not a
great [.
Milan recorded their first win the Champions League this season after a 2-0 win over Vitkoria
Plzen. Zlatan Ibrahimovic was the hero on the night as he scored the first and set up the second
for Antonio Cassano. A full review will follow.
Following last night's loss to Juventus at their impressive new stadium Milan coach Max Allegri
admitted to reporters that his side were ‘second best' and that Juve ‘deserved it'. The former
Cagliari tactician was spot on with these comments. However, he veered astray when he added,
"there's nothing worrying at all.
Match Day – 6 – Milan Vs Palermo – San Siro – 15th Oct 2011 With the slowest start to the
season in the last 21 years the defending Serie A Champions entered match day six needing a win.
There were positive signs heading into the match with Palermo. Robinho was making his first
appearance [..
I have been holding my breath before declaring this, but, I think it is safe to say now; Milan are
back. In the fight again Last night's win over Roma at the Stadio Olimpico made it four wins from
four for Allegri's men. Few teams in Europe are in this kind of form, Real Madrid [...]
Milan got back to winning ways after their disappointing draw with BATE Borisov last week in the
Champions League. Playing host to Catania, Milan marched to a four nil victory to claim all three
points and to move up two places to second in the table. Zlatan Ibrahimovic go on the scoresheet
via the penalty [.
Milan continued their winning form with a 4-0 thumping of Catania at the San Siro on Sunday night.
It was their fifth win in a row and an impressive one at that. The Sicilians have been no pushovers
this season, they have beaten the likes of Napoli, Inter while they got a point from Juventus.
[...]
In the end Milan had to settle for a point thus bringing to an end their five-match winning streak.
It was perhaps undeserved, the Rossoneri dominated the affair at least up until the final twenty
minutes when Fiorentina finally decided to take the match to the visitors. Perhaps then did they
only realise they were [.
When Thiago Silva popped up to head home from Clarence Seedorf's corner deep into injury time at
the Camp Nou, I celebrated like it was the winner. But, it was not. It was merely an equaliser that
earned us a draw yet that felt like a win. By universal consensus, Barcelona are the best team
[...]
Heading into Sunday night's match Milan had won nine matches in a row against the Flying Donkeys of
Verona. With such a record and given the Champions' resurgence after a slow start to the season
Milan were clear favourites to win this one. And, Max Allegri's side duly lived up expectation as
they trounced a [.
After the Fiorentina game a couple of weeks ago I suggested that Milan could be top of the table by
Christmas because of their fairly easy run of matches before the New Year. As things stand, at
least until tomorrow morning, Milan are top of the heap having beaten both Chievo and Genoa since.
Last [.
Milan started off their Champions League campaign in truly inspirational form after stealing a
point away to Barcelona on the opening match day. Their next two games ended according to
expectation, with routine victories over BATE Borisov and Viktoria Plzen. However, following their
2-0 win over BATE Borisov on matchday three, the Rossoneri failed [.
The last time Milan entertained Siena before the Tuscans' visit to the Giuseppe Meazza on Saturday
night was on January 17, 2010. That was the game that Ronaldinho, for me, showed his best in the
red and black. A superb hat-trick, one from the spot, one off his head and an absolute
wonder-strike in the [.
