AC Milan Lose Againts Unknown Team
The Rossoneri put in a mediocre performance in Albania and were beaten 2-1 by Tirana, despite Ronaldinho bagging a late consolation goal. The Ukrainian played the entire second half and had a few scoring chances that he was not able to convert, but eventually provided the assist for Dinho's second goal in a Diavoli jersey. "I am very happy," Sheva declared after the game, "my physical condition is getting better, I had a good match with my national side and I think my rhythm was fairly decent tonight too. "These are all good omens, it means my fitness is going back to its best level, even though I know I still need to train hard." The former Chelsea flop substituted Superpippo at the beginning of the second half, after the former Italy international suffered an apparently slight injury, but the extent of it is still unclear. The ex-Juventus marksman picked up a knock to the right thigh towards the end of the first period, and despite Carlo Ancelotti reassuring that the injury-ravaged striker left the pitch as a precaution, the Milanisti medical staff has yet to release an official statement to dissipate the doubts over his condition and his possibilities to be in the squad for next Sunday's Serie A game against Sampdoria at San Siro. Milan Dipecundangi Tim Antah Berantah.... Tirana (Albania) 2-AC Milan ( Italia )1 Milan melakukan lawatan ke Albania guna mengikuti pertandingan amal bertajuk "Taci Oil Albania Reads Trophy" yang disponsori oleh satu organisasai di bawah PBB UNICEF.
Sayang, dalam pertandingan 90 menit itu, AC Milan tidak terlihat seperti klub papan atas. Mereka kalah 2-1 dari klub gurem Tirana. Bahkan, satu-satunya gol Milan datang dari Ronaldinho yang terjadi di menit akhir, menit ke-91.
Dua gol tuan rumah diperoleh melalui Memeli dan Musaka, masing-masing pada menit ke-29 dan 72.
Meski kalah, Carlo Ancelotti (foto) melihat positif hasil tersebut. Ia menilai, kelihaian Ronaldinho sudah mulai terlihat. Tidak penting kalah, yang menjadi perhitungan sang pelatih adalah kembalinya sang superstar. Dan itu terbukti lewat sumbangan gol.
