by under Transfers and Rumours

ALBERTO AQUILANI’S agent says the player wants to stay at Milan and there will be news in 10 days.

Aquilani’s move to Milan was a disappointment for many Rossoneri fans as they were promised Mister X – a star midfielder – who didn’t come. And after a year he could already be on the move back to England.

Highlights: Milan 2-1 Novara

by under Highlights

THE DAY of farewells turned out to be pretty good thanks to one special Pippo Inzaghi, as Milan hosted Novara Calcio at Stadio San Siro on Sunday afternoon for the final match of the 11/12 season. Santiago García scored after 20 minutes to give the visitors the lead. Milan looked very bad in the first half, turned off, but the second half was a lot different and better for them. Mathieu Flamini, who came off from the bench for Kevin-Prince Boateng who got injured early on, scored the equalizer for Milan in the 56′ minute following a clever pass from Antonio Cassano. Filippo Inzaghi entered the pitch in the place of Cassano and got the cheer of the crowd. Alessandro Nesta replaced Alberto Aquilani so all the veterans were on the pitch at the same time – Captain Gennaro Gattuso, Zambrotta, Nesta, Seedorf and Inzaghi. The last on that list stole the show with a great appearance. Seedorf delivered a smart ball to Inzaghi who scored a golazo to win Milan the game and make the day a lot sweeter (82′). Milan say goodbye to the legends of the past with tears as they finish this Serie A season in the second place.
