[LIVE] AC Milan vs Manchester United

[Suprah]

And my prediction for the final is 3-2 Milan Revenge from 2005 against Liverpool.

Knowing Liverpool....the game will probably finish 1-0 or at most 2-1 regardless of who the winner is given their style of play.

well that was a disapointing game. needless to say any soccer fan would point out that milan deserved to win that game. manchester just sucked asss. lets see what they do agianst liverpool.

[VivaItalia]

Some lessons for ManU fans:

Never underestimate your opponent, even if they are 39-year grandpas.
Never humiliate your defeated opponent, even if it's a half strength Roma team.

and learn from Milan fans. We don't make fun at Ronaldo and Rooney today. We won't push this result and dominating game into your face the way you did to us (Roma Fans).

and of course this is not pointed at respectful members and ManU fans such as Suprah.

I remember commentators supporting Man Utd saying a while ago that Italian football is "dull".

Milan took that dull opinion and shoved it right up their...

now is the chance for all the people who were oblivious and say that kaka is not the best player in the world to atone for there mistake and give credit where credit is due. There is nobody better in the world today than kaka. Nobody.

i only watched the 2nd half, but from what i gathered milan's best players were kaka, gattuso and ambrosini. dida didn't need to do much so i think 3.5 is a bit unfair, and inzaghi was a pain to watch.

i used to really dislike milan before, but now my dislike for them is slowly disappearing, a lot of it has to do with kaka now i'm hoping milan kick liverpool's ass in the final
gosh i'm dying to catch the first half, i woke up too late

btw doobs, looks like gila's hair is growing back thank god

Wow what a beat down 3-0 for AC Milan. I watched the game and it was clearly obvious who the better team was today. Congrats to AC Milan fans here on IK. To Man U fans sorry for that brutal loss.

[yashar_fasihnia]

i didnt see the match, but from wat i have heard, looks like bayern wasnt as weak as many people thought.

its just milan who are unstoppable inspite of their poor goalkeeper, aging defense and thin striking force...

reminds me of esteghlal, u dont need to have a strong squad or paly attractive to win, u need to have a "champions character" to win, or wat we call in farsi, "shakhsiyate ghahremani"

this doesnt mean the other teams dont deserve to be champions or dont have championship character, it just means u cant rule out a team simply because their squad isnt strong enough or popular enough or the team doesnt play a very eye catching football

Knowing Liverpool....the game will probably finish 1-0 or at most 2-1 regardless of who the winner is given their style of play.

by 'style of play' do you mean knowing how to defend and clear the ball rather than pass it back to your center back who is not left footed?

ummm...................kinda

in seriousness it the tempo and tactics used by Liverpool that are totally different for most English teams. They have a strong defence and midfield to rely on. The strikers are mostly 'meh'.
