We went to Rome with high expectations looking forward to carting 3pts away on our way back and we did it. We got an early goal in the 16th minute from Ibrahimovich when he used his head to guide a cross from Aquilani into the net. Our celebration was short lived as in the 27th minute, Roma equalised from a corner kick which was not adequately defended. But 2 minutes later, Milan were back in front when Nesta sent a corner kick into the net with a stunning header. Well, it seemed to be a day for headers and what wonderful headers they were.
It was a day for headers and it was also a day for suspensions as Boateng was red carded and coach Allegri was sent off from the field. Regardless of the turmoil on the field, Milan pushed on and got a third goal from an Aquilani-Ibrahimovic collaboration in the 77th minute of the game. The game was far from over as in the 86th minute Roma got yet another goal trying to make a comeback into the game.
Milan, however, were able to hang on till the final whistle of the game ending the match with 2-3 scoreline in favor of Milan. This was an interesting match to say the least, but its time to move on and focus on our next match. See you there...
