Welcome to all here.
This is UEFA champions league at the San Siro
We're about to get started..
And they're off!
1min
irlo makes a run down the right, dribbles past Walcott, fakes Clichy, crosses, oh poor cross, Toure clears it, only as far as Gattuso,
He crosses
Pato rises
AND PATO MAKES IT 1-0 TO MILAN, its a dream start for the Rossoneri!
Arsenal have to buck up and prevent their opposition from scoring again.. Let me remind you the first leg was a goaless draw, Arsenal have to win or draw to progress through to the quarterfinals..
30 min: FOUL! William Gallas is given a yellow card for the tackle on Andrea Pirlo which leaves him groaning on the ground.. he gets up! with a smile to his teammates, You know what Andy Gray, i actually suspect he faked that cause there was very little contact on that..
41 min: Fabregas is through on goal and only the keeper to beat! he dribbles left, right, oh he has gone past the keeper! he shoots! it hits the cross bar!
Andy Gray:I'll tell you what the best do, they take their chances, he didn make use of that chance, lack of composure..
46min extra time: Arsenal really have got to buck up if they do want to have any chance of progressing through the competition, oh Flamini makes a run down the centre, he looks like he is going to shoot, he shoots! Dida pulls of a spectacular save to keep that out of the net.. It is a corner..
Fabregas takes the corner.. Adebayor heads it.. Smashes the crossbar! he could not believe that, his hands were up in celebration already!
Refree signals for half time..
45min:Arsenal kicks off, Fabregas decides to build up the attack, he passes it to Gallas, SUDDENLY, Kaka sprints to Gallas! Gallas is under pressure as he tries to shield the ball from Kaka, he passes it back to Almunia, Almunia runs up, he kicks the ball, he slips, AND FALLS DOWN! the ball continues to roll and i can't believe what has happened!
Captain William Gallas has just scored an own goal! Terrible mistake by the Arsenal goalkeeper Manuel Almunia.. Arsenal really have to pick themselves up, however, in recent champions league history, only 1 team have come back against AC Milan, and that was in the 2004-2005 champions league final where they were down 3-0 by the first half!
52min: William Gallas has brought down Clarence Seedorf! He is already on a yellow and several Arsenal players are surrounding the referee, the referee has called gallas.. OH its a STRAIGHT RED! Arsenal and down to 10 men and their hopes of progressing are surely down the drain..
68min
irlo is brought down by Fabregas 26 yards from goal.. Fabregas has just gotten a lecture, he is one lucky lad.. Pirlo steps up for the free kick, it is within striking range for the Italian, He shoots! It bends round the Arsenal wall! its in the top corner! 3-0 to Ac Milan!
73min:Kaka drives through the middle, Clarence Seedorf to his left and Pato to his right, who will he pass to? oh hes still running! he dribbles past Toure, Clichy and Senderos! Almunia comes off his line to cover the angle for the Brazilian playmaker but WHAT A WONDERFUL CHIP OVER THE DESPAIRING KEEPER! 4-0 to AC Milan!
91min: Will Arsenal pull 1 back? Fabregas running, passes to Walcott, he crosses, cleared by Nesta.. Everyone is here for the corner, my oh my even Almunia is here, he crosses! Dida punches, Kaka unleashes a long range shot inside his own half, the ball is soaring, it bounces! and it rolls over the line! Superb goal by Kaka and its 5-0 to AC Milan.. Oh my gosh, The Arsenal players are shattered..
Full time! This has been a one sided match and Arsenal really have performed poorly at the San Siro..
This is Andy Gray and Martin Tyler and thank you for watching the match between Ac Milan and Arsenal, the final scoreline, Ac Milan 5, Arsenal Nil..
No offence to any1
