A public starved of good football was treated to a feast of a match today as Milan resurrected themselves from a 1-4 deficit, scoring three goals in the last three minutes to grab a point and seal their third place finish in the group stages.
The action began in spectacular style when Stuart won a ball in midfield,looked up to see Michael off his line and lob in a beautiful shot to make it 1-0. Four minutes later, on the opposite side of the pitch, Jacopo spotted an opening and hammered in an equally spectacular goal to make it 2-0.
At the other end, Luca was causing havoc among the Inter defense but Joao was trying to keep him under control. Then Nico played a lovely pass to Filippo C on the right and Filippo reminded us what a good finisher he is: 2-1.
Then, just before half time, Stuart struck again with another thunderbolt from the left to make it 3-1 and Francesco R finished off a good passing move to make it 4-1 at half time, the final assist coming from Filippo G on the left.
In the second half, Milan poured forward but Christian made some very good saves. With three minutes to go, Filippo made it 2-4. Then a good passing movement finished with the ball in the air and Joshua fired it in with a spectacular bicycle kick.
With the crowd now on the edges of their seats, Milan surged forward with only seconds remaining. Joshua played the ball in from the right and there was Filippo C again to make it 4-4!
Semi-final pairings now decided: Lazio vs Inter; Roma vs Milan.
