Excellent first half, fairly decent second. 3 very much needed points.
My ratings:
Kalac(6): Other than his terrible mistake, he was solid and looked confident on high balls. He is a good sub, no doubt about it.
Bonera(8): It's not an exaggeration to say that Bonera was one of the best on the pitch today. He was certainly the most consistent player and kept running and making good challenges until the final whistle. A very positive game from the rossoneri supporter\ player.
Maldini(7): He had a very good game. He ran the show in the heart of defense and kept composed at all times. Although it's worth mentioning he clearly suffering and making some physical a sacrifices to be there.
Kaladze(7): Also had a good game. Looked solid throughout the whole game.
Favalli(7): He made some nice runs up the field on the left flank and linked up well with Seedorf. Good display until his injury forced him off.
Gattuso(7.5): The good ol' Gattuso was back in this match and he absolutely fought until the last minute when he was stretched off.
Pirlo(7.5): Played a great game in the first half and ran the show in midfield. But he had nothing left in the tank in the second half and was replaced by Gourcuff.
Ambrosini(7.5): Fought for every ball and won many challenges. He also did well to keep the game flowing with his short passes.
Seedorf(6.5): He had a good game, but gave the ball away one too many times. Despite showing flashes of greatness, he still made some avoidable mistakes.
Kaka(8): Fantastic first half display coupled with a trademark Kaka goal really got the crowd going today. He was leading the front line with great pace and technique.
Inzaghi(8.5): Man of the match performance and two great goals after coming off a fairly lengthy injury. Pure Super Pippo stuff. (IMG:

Cafu(4): Not only did he add anything to the team by his arrival, his mistake nearly brought Cagliari back into the game. His hair line and performance are starting to give away his age.
Brocchi(7): Got into the game quickly and gave a lovely through pass to Pippo for his second goal. Good display.
Gourcuff(6): As mentioned before by I_rossoneri, he is clearly afraid to make mistakes. But that's no excuse for him even though he had a decent run toward the end there.
Ancelotti(7): He had done good to motivate the players for the first time in a long time, but he should have demanded Milan to keep the pace in the second half. All in all, good game for him.
Forza Milan!
