^It was a great game! Made up for the snoozefest last week.

I knew it would end in penalties!

 

What is up with Sheva? anybody know? After this it's either him or Mourinho leaving Chelsea.. but it's probably Mourinho cause Sheva's BFF owns Chelsea :P

 

I'm hoping the finalists are those of Istanbul... with a different result this time :D

Those effing Roma Ultras better get the hell away from Milan. :angry:

AC Milan 3-0 Man Utd (Agg: 5-3)

 

_42877087_kaka_new203.jpg

 

AC Milan will face Liverpool in the Champions League final after crushing Manchester United at the San Siro.

 

Milan started the semi-final 3-2 down but were ahead on away goals after just 11 minutes when Clarence Seedorf headed down for Kaka to drill into the corner.

 

Seedorf capitalised on confusion in the United defence to fire in a second after half an hour.

 

And substitute Alberto Gilardino broke away to wrap up an easy win as United limped out in disappointing fashion.

 

The result ended United's dreams of repeating their 1999 Treble, but they can have no complaints after being totally outclassed by their Italian opponents.

 

Sir Alex Ferguson named Nemanja Vidic in his starting line-up after the defender's recovery from a broken collarbone but the Serb, like his colleagues, was overwhelmed by Milan's superior passing and movement in wet conditions.

 

The thunderous skies only added to the intimidating atmosphere at the San Siro, and when Milan began at a blistering pace, United were simply awestruck.

 

The hosts threatened in the very first minute when Kaka delivered a dangerous ball across goal, after three minutes when Seedorf forced Edwin van der Sar to tip over and again on seven minutes when Kaka shot straight at the United keeper.

 

The goal, then, was no more than Milan deserved, Seedorf nodding the ball down for Kaka to hammer home his 10th Champions League goal of the season.

 

United's much-vaunted attack was proving toothless.

 

Cristiano Ronaldo, who started on the left, was hardly in the game while Wayne Rooney's touch seemed to have deserted him.

 

The striker was guilty of giving the ball away on numerous occasions but at least his errors were nowhere near as catastrophic as Gabriel Heinze's moment of madness.

 

As United tried to play their way out of defence, the left-back inexplicably passed back to Vidic, who then compounded his team-mate's error by slipping as he scrambled to clear.

 

Milan regained possession and the ball eventually fell for Seedorf, who rode Vidic's challenge before finding the same corner as Kaka.

 

At half-time, optimistic United fans might have pointed to their side's recovery from two goals down in the 1999 semi-final against Juventus in Turin, but Milan were simply too good for their lacklustre opponents.

 

United had far more possession in the second half but rarely threatened a calm and composed Milan defence nor did they really test Milan's out-of-form keeper Dida.

 

Rooney finally found an accurate pass to set up Darren Fletcher, but he skewed wide and that was as good a chance as United fashioned.

 

And Milan booked a repeat of the 2005 final against Liverpool when Gilardino galloped through the United defence and stroked the ball past a stranded Van der Sar.

well done AC, thoroughly deserved as United didn't turn up tonight. Good luck for the final, you'd best hope it doesn't go to penalties!

Gerrard will give shortarse a lesson in midfielding!

Maybe he can't tell the difference between grass and water and that's why he's always diving into the grass. :laugh3:

:lol:

 

 

*sigh* Well...Milan did well.

 

That's all I'm gonna say.

Mark's having a field day when he gets back to this thread :stunned:

What happened to him?

 

 

Did he get eaten or something? :thinking:

someone tickled him on the ski slope and he went sprawling. Mentioned something about baby's legs and he's gone down clutching his ankle. Has Mark got a tan and black hair?

I don't know...never seen a picture of him. :shy:

 

 

 

I'd like to know what he looks like...because I don't really like the 'Mark' I envision in my head.

 

 

Anyways....footie.

 

 

Tough day for Manchester. :\

 

 

Hmmmmmm.... Ronaldo kinda lost it at the end...not good at all.

So the match-fixers are winning...

Someone is a sore loser eh? STFU Milan got to where they are fair and square

:D I'm hoping! Gosh Reina OWNS in penalties

 

The first half was probably the best I've seen Milan play all season :smug:

 

FORZA MILAN

I'm not a Milan fan myself but damn..they played sooo good yesterday evening, and I'm happy for some of my friends :nice:

Oh and Gattuso is the man :cool: and luckily enough he didn't punch Scholes for his unfair-play :rolleyes:
