good one-time ball long over the top by pirlo to inzaghi, and last man hand ball, red card. down to ten men siena. edit: now down to ten men, milan is holding well onto possession here and trying to burn clock and hope to find the killer second goal. 88' right now edit: and right as i say that, kalac saves our asses. great save.
daaaaamn what a sick goal from paloschi and kalac saves us again last week vs fiorentina was the same too bad juventus beat udinese tho
Great win given the circumstances. I know I've said this before, but we really should start Cafu and Serginho some more. Cafu is a classy marathon man at almost 40, Serginho is still a massive boost to the attack. Pity we didn't get to see Gourcuff, but at least Paloschi made my day. How funny is it that both our keepers have a knack for Hollywood saves and both are error-prone? One thing is for certain tho, it always makes the game more interesting.
FT. 1-0 no pato no gila, nesta got a rest (at least, i hope that is what it was ) for a half, seedorf only played a half, no gattuso, oh, and on top of that the reigning ballon d'or winner kaka was also out. plus siena is on pretty decent form and full of confidence. It wasn't the prettiest match ever, but a good 3 points considering all the circumstances. I feel good for paloschi. first touch in serie a was a nice goal and a winner, and then he did some good defending and won some fouls and worked hard. kalac had another good game as well. a game in hand and only 2 points back. if wednesday is a victory, then fourth spot is attained (tocca ferro).
I was watching Sampdoria-Napoli on RAI, and I hear the trumpet and see Paloschi celebrating. I'm very happy for him, hopefully he gets some more playing time, as he did save and grab Milan three points today. FORZA PALO'!
Well that was painful at times, I'm just glad that we got the points today. As for Paloschi, man, to score with your first touch in the league is bound to boost his confidence. Edit: Ka-Pa-Pa. it makes sense.
What a class finish from Paloschi. Beautiful on the volley, placed into the lower far corner. Hopefully the first of many for him in Serie A. With a win against Livorno on Wednesday we reach the 4th place objective, but we have to stay there and not drop off form.
Milan-Siena 10/02/2008 Kalac 7 -Prestazione di livello. Sempre sicuro su ogni palla, salva il risultato a 3` dal termine deviando in corner un tiro insidioso di Frick. Bonera 6 -Buona la sua prova. Ha rilevato Nesta nella ripresa ed ha trovato subito la posizione al centro della difesa. Jankulovski 6.5 -Al rientro dopo mesi di stop e` apparso in buona condizione. Ha giocato una buona gara soprattutto nel primo tempo, trovando un`ottima intesa con Sergihno. Maldini 6 -Ha fatto buona guardia su Maccarone e Frick. Ha trovato qualche problema in piu` sulle incursioni dei centrocampisti. Nesta 6 -Solita prestazione senza sbavature. Nella ripresa ha lasciato il posto a Bonera. Cafu 6 -Prestazione altalenante. Alterna momenti di gran calcio a minuti sottotono. Si porta con costanza al cross. Non riesce a creare le sovrapposizioni richieste da Ancelotti con Brocchi sulla fascia destra. Brocchi 5 -Non ha convinto. Troppo poco deciso nei contrasti ed evanescente in fase di impostazione. Pirlo 5.5 -Non e` stato il solito Pirlo. In una giornata in cui mancavano i centrocampisti piu` tecnici, dovevea essere il faro del centrocampo, ma e` stato messo in difficolta` dal gran pressing degli avversari. Seedorf 7 -Col suo ingresso in campo nella ripresa e` cambiata la partita. Ha innalzato il tasso tecnico della gara, e` andato piu` volte al tiro mettendo in difficolta` Manninger e soprattutto ha servito l`assist vincente per Paloschi. Ambrosini 6.5 -Come al solito, prestazione di gran quantita`. Un gladiatore in mezzo al campo, ha corso e lottato su ogni pallone. Serginho 6.5 -Nel primo tempo le occasioni per il Milan sono tutte nate da delle sue giocate. Ottima l`intesa con Jankulovski, ha spinto tantissimo sulla fascia creando superiorita` numerica e servendo alle punte cross precisi . Inzaghi 6 -Si e` mosso tantissimo rendendosi pericoloso soprattutto partendo dalla linea del fuorigioco. Poco preciso al tiro. Paloschi 7.5 -E` stato il protagonista assoluto della gara. Dopo appena 20`` dal suo ingresso in campo ha realizzato il gol che ha deciso il match. E` entrato subito in partita dimoistrando grande personalita`. Colpisce anche un palo. Ronaldo 5 -Non e` mai entrato in partita. Doveva essere il collante tra il centrocampo ed Inzaghi, ma non e` mai riuscito a proporsi e a inserirsi in avanti in maniera pericolosa. datasport.it
I Cant Believe I Missed This Game.... I Absolutely Have To Have To Watch The Replay... Paloschi.... I Got So Excited As Soon As I Saw The Scoreboard.... Unbelievable... Scoring 15 Seconds Into Your Debut... Watch Out Coz Ka-Pa-Pa May Just Be Here To Stay... And Be The Youngest Attackin In Serie A i think you may have seen enough...
I must admit, even though I'm not a MIlan fan I couldn't help but smile when I saw this kid score. It really was a brilliant goal by him and he definitely made a case for himself after today's performance. Him and Pato are going to form a lethal combo for quite some time.
Its rather low IMHO. He wasn't up to his 8-9 standards but definitely no 5.5. Reading this you may think he was the worst player on the field (Discounting Ron's a no participation and Brocchi's evident lack of skill). So Ancelotti can smile... Nice. The future seems bright.
First Pato then Alberto Paloschi......who says Milan is too old? I guess they were just waiting for 2008 for these guys to turn 18 , mature and so they could contribute right away..... He is also on the B list roster for the Champions League......they must have a lot of faith in him..... http://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alberto_Paloschi http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alberto_Paloschi
Just finished watching a delayed tape game. I am very happy and not because we won, but because we did it wthout our major weapons and Ronaldo was not playing all that well today at all. Also, I am extremely satisfied that Kalac is doing so well, he will be huge for us this season in Serie A and CL. Moreover, Jankulowski seems to be back and that's huge for us!!! Congrats to Paloschi on an awesome goal - I wonder what he told Pippo after his goal.
Wow Paloschi what a goal.. still very early to tell.. but suddenly our future attacking options don't seem so bad. Pato - Paloschi next year
I think that could be stretching it a bit to be fair. Don't get me wrong, I'm extremely proud of the kid and glad he was able to turn his first ever chance in an official league game into a goal. However, what makes Pato an extraordinary player at 18 years is his remarkable body type and speed. Basically Pato isn't far away from where Ronaldo was before his prime; contrastingly Paloshci is a little on the shrimpy side and I strongly doubt he forms a partnership with our number 1 prodigy in the future. I know Paloschi wasn't on for very long but I think thats a good thing, any time he was pressured while he had the ball he fell over and the rare time he was in space he didn't seem to possess any kind of def touch that separated him from the other hopefuls. I could be too harsh but thats my take on him atm. About the game: Gourcuff must not be doing something in training that will get Carlo to play him; I mean if Serginho is selected over a supposedly very talented player with youthful exuberance than there must be something going on we don't know because the moment I saw the lineup with no Gourcuff I lost my mind. Or maybe Carlo is losing his mind its hard to say?
hmm... reminds me of a certain younger, super pippo inzaghi... and by this i do not mean he will or even may turn into the new pippo inzaghi, but that, given 3 chances he has scored 3 goals and the stats just speak for themselves... we all just hope that he does well, but that does not mean that he will... but atm, 3 goals in 3 games, atleast 2 of which were as a substitute(I am not sure if he started the first catania game) is not a bad record to have... i am honestly shocked, absolutely shocked that gourcuff did not play that game, he will most likely be out of milan come summer time...
Paloschi: "Non ci credo" Il Primavera del Milan è l'eroe del giorno: "Il gol non me lo aspettavo. Ora devo solo migliorare". Ancelotti: E' un predestinato". Galliani: "Con lui e Pato, il Pa-Pa, siamo diventati la squadra più giovane. Abbiamo una linea http://www.gazzetta.it/Calcio/Primo_Piano/2008/02_Febbraio/10/Paloschi.shtml
You're right, its remarkable really. Ironically Paloschi's idol is Inza; the most idea scenario I guess would be to see Paloschi develop into a future Inzaghi but with a better touch and passing ability?
