I hope De Rossi elbows Ronaldo and breaks his nose today,even if Roma lose.

btw Does Van Buyten remind anyone else of BFG?
BFG??

:tup: on the De Rossi elbow

Justice was made at the end since kaka penalty was not true , bayern will qualify now , van buyten is great ,milan have weak defence-keeper and attack this season i was surprised that liverpool won 3-0 away
What Justice?
There was a penalty not given to Milan, a legal goal was cancelled for Gila, this is what u call justice buddy???

I agree with m_elayyan that Milan were lucky to get the penalty.But overall,i thought Milan were the better team.Had Shevchenko been at Milan,i would have tipped them to get a good result in the 2nd leg and go through,but i cant see it happening now.

The PSV- Liverpool game was a surpirse.I wasnt waching it,but a friend of mine told me that Liverpool played in 2nd gear all night,and did nothing too spectacular.PSV were pretty horrible,which cost them the leg,and now obviously the entire tie too.

Milan´s defence is good but Maldini is really ready for retirement, he looses concentration every match after 60 minutes, I don´t know what is Ancelotti doing, but IMO Bonera should be playing as a 2nd CB. Nesta was very good considering that he came back from a long injury. Jankulovski didn´t impress at all last night, Oddo was a little above average. IMO the best Milan players were Kaka, Pirlo and Gattuso.
Actually Maldini had a good game last night.

I´m with Rab. Maldini played a good match.

I swear when the referee was standing right next to that clear penalty in the first half and failed to give it, I was wondering whether he was trying to punish Milan for their involvement in the scandal.

Well yeah, first 60-70 minutes he was brilliant.
I meant in general/overall he was pretty good. I don't recall any mistake done by him. The two goals that Milan conceded weren't his fault.

Anyway not only Paolo but all Milan players stopped attacking and controlling the game last 15min.

Yeah, he did good. I didn´t say he was bad at all, it just seems he always drops in performance after one hour but that´s reasonable, he´s getting old.

Bayermilan will be interesting. :O IMO none of the teams were very good at creating chances. Pirlo misses that header 9 times out of 10. That isn't a penalty 19 out of 20. Plus both Buytens goals were flukes. Milan is the better team and I hope Gilardino can show some Parma form for once in the return...

Liverpool are throw, crap. I'd say with Benitez at helm they are the strongest contenders for the title.

Bayern made an excellent job in Milan. The game reminded me very much on the game Real Madrid - Bayer when Real also was better team, but after the lead they concetrated on the defense instead of playing in the same spirit and maybe score few more goals. Milan did the same mistake, they were superior team and I'm sure they could score more goals but they were pleased with 1-0 result and decided to go more defensive what gave Bayern space to score goal. This is the only thing I always object to Italian teams and coach, when they should finish opponent they are retreating.

Gila will not be playing in return his stupid act of scoring goal after the wistle brought him yellow card and now he can't play in return.

Who'd want PSV through to the semis, though? I mean, this years competition is a joke already. Hardly a game worth watching. Only interesting clash is Roma - Man U.
