UCL: Tottenham Hotspurs Vs Ac Milan [0 - 0] On March 09, 2011 by mukina2: 1:42pm On Mar 08, 2011
Probable Starting XI

Tottenham: Gomes, Hutton, Dawson, Gallas, Assou-Ekotto, Lennon, Palacios, Modric, Bale, Van der Vaart, Crouch.

AC Milan: Abbiati, Abate, Nesta, Thiago Silva, Jankulovski, Merkel, Flamini, Seedorf, Robinho; Pato, Ibrahimovic.



The second leg between the Italian table toppers Ac.Milan and the Englishmen Tottenham is edging closer and Allegri is more confident than ever in his squad.

Massimiliano Allegri after defeating Juventus in their most recent Serie A match spoke about his situation in the Champions League and looks pretty confident despite having lost against Tottenham in the first leg match with the score line showing 1-0.

The odds just cannot be any better than this for the English team as now they are to face ‘The Rossoneri’ in their own turf and so far Hotspur have a 100% record when playing at home and have score at least 3 goals in each of their matches.

Hotspur also have the highest number of goalscorers in the Champions League having scored 19 goals they are only goal behind Arsenal the current team with most goals.

While Ac.Milan have the lowest number of goals along with Manchester United having scored 7 goals and a average of 1 goal per match.



Match Prediction
Ac.Milan have been unstoppable in Serie A and have defeated Juventus and Napoli but they just aren’t the same team when playing in the Champions League and besides Allegri shouldn’t risk important players in a match like this.

Match

yeah I agree with you. You will never see a spurs player doing a backheel in his own penalty area
Re: UCL: Tottenham Hotspurs Vs Ac Milan [0 - 0] On March 09, 2011 by FBS: 8:29am On Mar 10, 2011
Gallas. He kept you in. His goal-line clearance was priceless. I think he has done well for you.

How you Survived? ''Audere est Facere'' (To Dare Is to Do)
It is the resilience, self believe and maturity of your team especially the sterling performance of your back line (Asuo Ekotto, Dawson and ever reliable Gallas, etc Sandro was outstanding too) although the strikers didn't score.

I have always opined that teams hardly and dont win trophies and titles with teen back lines and another teen manning the goal post (Los Blacos Casillas is a one-off), that zone is for veterans, perhaps William .G. has been vindicated at last after his objective scathing comments that warranted him been stripped of his captaincy when he was still plying his trade for a certain 5-years-trophy less club.

Ironically, while he was clearing balls off his goal line to help keep The Spurs dreams alive in the race, his former team mates were giving assists to opponents to score, ''Nani style''.
Footie sure do follow a certain superstitious pattern.

Your next door rivals should appreciate your achievement and not showing up with dour sour faces all over, duh!!!! ( I hope i can do same if Madrid gets the better of my team this season cheesy)

Congratulations.

We are Barcelona grin

Congrats Manmustwac and all the other Spurs fans even though the win was undeserved. At least, you showed determination unlike your neighbours that became the first team in the history of the CL not to get a shot on or off target.
Re: UCL: Tottenham Hotspurs Vs Ac Milan [0 - 0] On March 09, 2011 by debosky(m): 11:58am On Mar 10, 2011
^^ Completely senseless idiot on the loose - Inter didn't have a single shot on or off target at Camp Nou last year either.
Re: UCL: Tottenham Hotspurs Vs Ac Milan [0 - 0] On March 09, 2011 by medjai(m): 12:48pm On Mar 10, 2011
^^ Go check the stats again. Inter had a shot on target.

Arsenal first Champions League without a shot at goal – Opta stats

London, England (Sporting Alert) — English Premier League side Arsenal became the first Champions League side to finish a game without a single shot at goal during a game.

The stats were presented after the game, but now gurus Opta, which have kept detailed records for eight years confirmed the new-low for Arsene Wenger’s men who were sent packing by Barcelona on Tuesday.

“There have been 981 Champions League games since 2003-04 and Arsenal are the first of 1,962 sides not to manage a shot of any form in a match since then,” an Opta spokesman reportedly said.

Arsenal entered the game with a 2-1 advantage, but failed to hold on and went down 3-1 at Camp Nou to go out 4-3 on aggregate.
