They had to win and they did. There was only one team in it at the San Siro stadium and Milan are now top of group H in the Champions League.
Allegri went with Boateng behind the strikers and Taiwo at left back. the team started with the pedal to the metal. Aquilani shot high after only 4’ and did so again on 8’. Cassano found him inside the area and the man from the capital hit the bar. Cassano also found his strike partner Ibtahimovic in the box after 18’ who tried a chip but it was off target. 10 minutes later Cassano exchanges passes with Taiwo. The Nigerian crossed in the middle for Aquilani who brought out a good save from the visiting keeper.
Milan risked a bit after 32’. A glaring error from Van Bommel let Bressan in but his shot was well saved at the expense of a corner by Abbiati.
Finally the Rossoneri break the deadlock. A cross from Abate on the right finds Aquilani in the box. His shot is blocked but finds Ibrahimovic who makes no mistake with a shot from inside the area. The Swedish striker could have doubled the lead on 36’ but fortune was not smiling on him. The teams head to the dressing rooms with the score at 1-0. Milan looked well in charge of the first half.
The second half kicks off with a few too many mistakes from Allegri’s men. Abate starts off with a mistake that lets Kezman in, but Nesta is there to clear up. Bressan then has a shot but hits it high. Bordachev has another chance after 3 minutes but Abbiati is up to the challenge. Milan look dangerous after 11’ but Ibra hits high from a good position. Robinho replaces Cassano and makes an immediate impact. He beats his man on 21’ but his shot is wide. Just as the visitors are looking dangerous, Milan double their lead. Boateng controls a cross from Abate with consummate ease and his shgot is ferocious. Milan are 2 nil up.
Game over. Just enough time for the crowd to give a standing ovation to Boateng as he makes way for Emanuelson. Philippe Mexes also came on late on for Nesta to make his Rossoneri debut. Then that’s it. Milan are now joint top of their group with Barcelona who beat Viktoria Plzen at home. Both teams are sitting pretty with 7 points.
