FC Zürich vs AC Milan Highlights Video



FC Zürich 0 - 1 AC Milan
70' 0 - 1 Goal Andriy Shevchenko
While Zurich were outmatched and got a good look at what Milan are capable of two weeks ago, they will not easily recognize the side they face on Thursday. Milan are now a much improved team, and the confidence and self-assuredness of the players seems to have gone through the roof.
In the Derby della Madonnina on Sunday, the Rossoneri were the better side, even if they kept the 1-0 score secure largely in part to Inter Milan’s inability to finish their attacking movements; but it wasn’t just that. Milan had the better of the chances, and each time they had possession in the final attacking third of the field, you almost got the sense they could have scored.
When Milan and Zurich first met, Milan were unsure of themselves following two losses in their first two matches of the season, against Genoa and Bologna of all teams. Now, Milan are brimming with confidence, and must feel that they can go all the way in the UEFA Cup, even if it is viewed by most in the Milan camp as a secondary goal.

37' Ronaldinho Scored
77' Red Card Nicolas Burdisso

Jose Mourinho tasted his first Milan derby and his first defeat as coach of Internazionale on Sunday night, going down to Carlo Ancelotti's AC Milan.
Ronaldinho scored his first goal for the Rossoneri in the 36th minute and his goal proved to be enough to down the defending champions.
Inter lost Nicolas Burdisso to a red card in the 77th minute while Marco Materazzi was also sent to the stands from the Inter bench after protesting vociferously in a fiery end to the match in front of 80,000 fans at the San Siro.
It was a very tight beginning to the 269th Milan derby with the fear of falling behind prevailing over the ambition to go ahead.

After retiring in 1992, Ancelotti moved into coaching, taking the helm at Reggina, Parma (winning the UEFA Cup in 1999) and then Juventus. After two trophyless years in Turin he moved to Milan, where he has masterminded one Serie A triumph and two Champions League wins, either side of the dramatic 2005 final where a three-goal lead was thrown away.
