This was a match ridden with chances on goal for both sides but the goals did not come until the 56th minute of the game. Both sides had closed defences and the keepers were on point until Genoa gave away a penalty which Ibra wasted no time in converting.
Being a goal up was not enough for us however so we kept chipping away at the Genoa defence with Robinho missing a goal by sending the ball over the bar from a few feet away. Finally, Milan got their second goal in the 79th minute from Nocerino who carefully directed a pass across the goal from Boateng into the Genoa net.
Despite being 2 goals up in the last quarter of the match Milan kept hounding the Genoa defence while keeping a hold on ball possession. All in all, the match was a fun game to watch and we are now topping the league table but we have a championship match coming up next, see you there!!!

AC Milan vs Chievo - 27th November, 2011
For this match, Thiago Silva was our esteemed captain and he showed good leadership by starting out a goal fest in the 8th minute of the game. After a dribble by Boateng who layed the ball down, Thiago delivered a stunning delivery that ripped through the defence and into the left corner of the goal.
The second goal came from Ibrahimovich who delivered a skillful lob at the edge of the area which the goalkeeper could not keep out. It was one of those Ibra signature moves that even the commentators recognised and acclaimed.
The third goal came from a corner kick which the keeper initially saved but was rebounded beautifully by Pato who skillfully displaced the keeper. Pato was not done however, as he played a major role in causing the fourth and final goal of the match.
After executing a beautiful dribble, Pato made a run into the Chievo box where he was promptly rumpled by the Chievo defence resulting in a penalty kick for us. The penalty was taken by Ibra who once again showed his amazing skill infont of the goal with a top right corner penalty that the keeper neither anticipated or expected.
All in all, Milan was sharp in front of goal, and tight at the back which I personally think is what is needed to win any match. This was a match worth watching and now we look forward to our next match, see you there.

AC Milan vs Catania - 6th November, 2011
This was another spectacular match by the Rossoneri which ended in a 4-0 win at the San Siro. Milan got their first goal when Robinho was fouled in the box and a penalty was awarded and was taken by Ibrahimovich. Ibrahimovich and Robinho collaborated again to get the second goal when Robinho recieved a cross from Ibra and proceeded to dance his way into the Catania box then delivered the ball to the back of the net with a great right foot shot.
Robinho was not done yet even after getting a penalty and scoring a goal, he was still active at the front and this resulted in the 3rd goal from a close range shot which could not be stopped. With 3 goals to their name, Milan was not satisfied however and went on to seal the victory with a final goal from Zambrotta who rebounded a freekick taken by Aquilani.
This win moved Milan to the third position on the league table putting us one point behind the league leaders. We are optimistic about the coming matches as it seems that Milan is gradually rising to form, see you at the next match.

AS Roma vs AC Milan - 29th October, 2011
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...

AC Milan vs Parma - 26th October, 2011
This was another impressive match by the Rossoneri which resulted in a 4-1 win at the san siro. Our first goal came when Ibrahimovich sent in an impressive pass from the edge of the Parma box into the middle which Nocerino picked up and proceeded to convert. The second goal came from an impressive shot at the edge of the box by Nocerino which the Parma keeper couldn't save. milan was on a roll, and so was Nocerino as he chased his hat-trick.
It was Ibrahimovich however who gave us our tthird goal as he ran down the parma defence and proceeded to score one of his classy goals which we know him for. Milan was 3 goals up but a defence slack gave Parma the chance to get one goal in by Giovinco making it 3-1. milan was not done however, Nocerino had yet to complete his hat-trick which he proceeded to do in the extra-time given at the end of the game. This time he scored with an impressive header that ended the game on a high note for Milan.
We have every reason to celebrate as we have packed 6 points from 2 games, but we now have to prepare for the upcoming match against Roma. See you there.

Lecce vs AC Milan - 23rd October 2011
Wow...wow....wow...wow what a match!!! The first half looked like the end of the match for Milan as Lecce got their first inside the 4th minute of the game and then proceeded to score 2 more during the course of the first half leaving the score 3-0. I was more than devastated...i was crushed - as were all of the other Milan fans who were watching - but the second half was yet to come.
The second half came with Milan subbing Robinho and Ambrosini and putting in Boateng and Aquilani. The change seemed to be exactly what we needed as Boateng scored a goal within the first minute of the second half and then went on to score two more within 16 minutes leaving the match score at 3-3.
Milan was back in the game with a hattrick by Boateng gotten in 17minutes ... it was unbelivable...I screamed till i was hoarse then I resorted to running around till i couldn't move anymore, then i decide to share it with you guys.
Anyway, back to the game, we played level for a few minutes but then close to the end of the match, Yepes gave us our winning goal with an assist from Cassano. This was definitely a match to savor and remember. Milan came from a 3 goal deficit to win the match all in the second half.
After this match all I have to say is ... Forza Milan!!!

AC Milan vs FC Bate Borisov - 19th October 2011, UEFA Champions League
This was our third match in the UEFA league and we were searching for a win which we got. The match ended with a 2-nil victory for Milan.
We got our first goal from a rebound shot by Ibrahimovich in the 32nd minute of the game. The second goal came in the 69th minute when Boateng recieved a direct pass then unleashed an amazing shot which the Bate keeper had no hope of saving.
This win places us level with Barcelona as we both have 7points each. The next match is critical and I know we are all looking forward to it.
FORZA MILAN!!!

AC Milan vs Palermo- 15th October, 2011
The match ended with a 3-nil victory to Milan. It was our second victory since the start of the season and it seems we are finally getting closer to hitting our form. Milan dominated the game from start off to the final whistle.
We got our first goal shortly before half time from Antonio after a very nice well placed pass by Ibrahimovich to Aquilani was played back to the middle of the box where Antonio was waiting. Milan pressed on for a second goal and were rewarded with a goal from Robinho who calmly placed a pass recieved from Ibrahimovich into the back of the net. Howerver, Milan was not satisfied and kept pushing on for more goals. We got our final goal from Cassano who placed a pass recieved from Abate into the back of the net.
Like I said earlier this victory signifies Milan coming into form, I'm looking forward to our next match and I hope you are too. See you there, ciao
