MATCHDAY 2 GRUP FASE AC MILAN vs FC ZURICH

Player Ratings from Goal.com : AC Milan 0-1 FC Zurich

AC MILAN

Marco Storari - 6.5: Pulled off a couple of fine saves that stopped the scoreline from being even more humiliating.


Ignazio Abate - 6: Adventurous and did well to charge forward and hit early crosses into the box.

Alessandro Nesta - 7.5: Faultless as ever, dictating play as Milan kept a high line and used his still impressive pace and intelligence to marshall the defence.

Kakhaber Kaladze - 5.5: Strong and aggressive but his positional sense should be a lot better by now. Marking space when the corner came in that led to the goal.

Marek Jankulovski - 5.5: For someone who is used as a wing-back, the Czech Republic defender is not exactly Cafu-like going forward. Makes the runs but rarely does anything useful with the ball.

Mathieu Flamini - 5: Anonymous and lacking the kind of bite and enthusiasm that Gattuso has always provided.

Andrea Pirlo - 6: The Metronome is actually starting to look a little bored of chipping and lobbing balls up to the strikers. Needs a new challenge.

Massimo Ambrosini - 6: Worked tirelessly, ran a thousand miles and yet you can't help feeling that he isn't the ideal player to have in the box.

Clarence Seedorf - 6.5: A decent first half saw him drifting left and using his skill to beat Swiss defenders with ease. Replaced at half-time through no fault of his own.

Alexandre Pato - 5: Another dismal showing for a young talent who looks as if he has fallen out of love with the game.

Filippo Inzaghi - 6: Played on the shoulder as usual, got into goalscoring areas as usual, but couldn't find a way to get the ball in the net.

Substitutes:

Gianluca Zambrotta - 6: One last minute strike hit the woodwork.

Ronaldinho - 6.5: Tricky and productive, nearly forced an opening.

Oguchi Onyewu - 5.5: A debut characterised by a lack of communication and a small heap of indecision.
