AC MILAN

Dida: 7.5 – We saw Dida circa 2002 tonight as he made some wonderful saves especially on Dzemaili and Paloschi.

Oddo: 7 - Is starting to round into form for the Rossoneri and galloped forward at will this evening and although the final product was lacking at first, he fixed his radar and whipped in three or four excellent crosses.

Kaladze: 6 - Deputised for the injured Nesta and while he doesn’t instil confidence in the Rossoneri faithful, he did a solid job keeping Paloschi and Bojinov off the scoresheet.

Thiago Silva: 7 - Is settling in nicely in the centre of defence and he almost put the match to bed with a spectacular run that he finished off by heading the ball against the crossbar.
