Injured Dida To Miss Celtic Clash
Nelson Dida is almost certainly out of Milan’s Champions League match with Celtic and will be replaced in goal by Zeljko Kalac.
The Brazilian shot-stopper missed Wednesday’s 2-1 defeat to Palermo after picking up an injury to his left shoulder. The 33-year-old has undergone a series of medical tests, which have revealed some inflammation that will require 10 days of rest.
Milan travel to Glasgow to face Scottish champions Celtic next Wednesday and Australian keeper Zeljko Kalac will once again fill in for Dida.
The ex-Leicester City flop is not the most inspiring of choices for the Rossoneri and looked suspect during the midweek defeat in Sicily. Kalac allowed Fabrizio Miccoli’s last minute free-kick to go through his hands and appeared nervous all game.
However the 34-year-old did play against Celtic in the Champions League last year and managed to keep a clean sheet during the 0-0 draw in the first leg of the first knockout round.
Milan went on to beat the Hoops 1-0 in the return leg at San Siro, with Kaka scoring a magnificent solo goal in extra time.
Great,...
I really would like to see Fiori in action. That would be his 3rd appearance for us, am I right?
