So, yet another friendly.
Milan are flying to Budapest tomorrow to play against a group of all stars from Hungary's domestic league. Whee.
Here's the schedule from acmilan.com's italian page:
what!!!! i hope we play none of the main players and seedorf and emerson start
Oh come on, are we so desperate to sell our product? Carletto clearly said he did not want any more friendlies...
Another glorious decision by the board. Beckham will play i presume?
Primavera and Beckham only for this one please
I'm sure all of our stars will play. R80 and Kaka undoubtedly that's the reason we're doing this in the first place.
So there was full training today. Warmups, drills, practice game.
The infirmary patients did the following:
Borriello did some running, Bonera worked in the Sand Pit, Kaladze worked in the gym, Abbiati worked in the gym.
Pippo did train separately today.
And Rino Gattuso trained with the squad!
EDIT: Here are the call ups for the game. LOTS of kids this time.
20 CONVOCATI PER L'AMICHEVOLE DI DOMANI
21/04/2009
MILANO - Sono 20 i convocati di Carlo Ancelotti per l'amichevole di domani: HUNGARIAN LEAGUE TEAM - A.C. MILAN
Kalac, Perucchini (50)
Darmian, Jankulovski, Senderos, Thiago Silva, Mattioni, Pasini (53)
Ambrosini, Beckham, Cardacio, Flamini, Strasser (51), Furlan (52), Osuji (54)
Kakà, Seedorf, Shevchenko, Ronaldinho, Viudez.
Can we transfer his powers to Borriello and the young Maldinis?
I'd like to see this team start:
Kalac
Mattioni Darmian Thiago Jankulovski
Beckham Flamini Cardacio
Ronaldinho
Sheva Viudez
So happy Gattuso is back...I want Viudez, mattioni, and Darmian to be put in the line-ups from the start!!!
we usually don't see them play so this is an opportunity to really see the talents we have
I want to see Darmian and Mattioni down the right. For heaven's sake we're so flaccid on the rightside, it's not funny.
Cafu...oh Cafu!!
I heard some day ago...Cafu comes back to football)) and he will play for one of Brazilian clubs))
I want to see young keeper.
P.S. No links to see this match(((
does anyone know what time this match will come on and does anyone know where i could watch it ?
thank you
It's going to be on Mediaset Premium at 19.30 Milan time, but I have no information on any streams.
Actually it's 19.00, Milan time. My bad. Mediaset's sports page is going to have text commentary but their text commentary sucks.
Also...someone want to open up the Palermo match thread? I would but we don't win when I open match threads.
Once again Galliani proves he's a big liar. I clearly remember him saying the friendly against Al Sadd [?] was our last friendly this season.
Hope our stars don't get injured or anything...
This is a weird decision. Surely, this won't pay us as much money. I'm guessing this is some kind of brand building exercise, while perhaps some kind of feeder-club agreement gets worked on in the background (like we did with the Macedonian clubs some time back). But even then, this is a very strange time to hold it. I'm guessing, the management doesn't care whether it's second or third place.
Yet again, they go behind Carlo's back.
Starting lineups:
HUNGARIAN LEAGUE TEAM: Nemeth; Miskolczi; Meszaros, Horvat, Laczko; Tisza, Horvath, Farkas, Sipos; Rajczi, Kabat.
MILAN : Kalac; Mattioni, Thiago Silva, Senderos, Jankulovski; Beckham, Ambrosini, Seedorf; Kakà, Ronaldinho; Shevchenko.
I hope 2nd half will be Primavera's half otherwise we'll have difficulties on weekend
Happy to see Thiago and Mattioni playing. if only Darmian was starting too...
so sad not having chance to see this match((
Yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah my friends!!

Can you provide a running summary, rivaldo? I'm at work and not able to do streaming stuff.
As soon as my stream comes on we conceed
Oops.
0-1
Our awful defence....
Sheva with a good chance from a freekick
Good move from Becks, Seedorf and Kaka but doesn't turn into anything
mattaioni with a bad tackle
on the counter dont know what beckham was attempting to do
huh Devid....
O_o
Heya !!
We are 19 mins in ?!?!?
Good chance for Kaka there. Hit straight at the keeper
why are we playing this
Go on Beckham
Great saving tackle by Senderos, could have been 2 down there
now we are fighting
As Tennie would say. Handbags coming out between Becks and the number 15
superb double save by kalac
Double save by the Spider.
We're complete sh!t at the back...
Devid.....what for to do this way...?
they seem to be really up for it and we only seem to losing stamina
So, is anyone looking decent in the game so far?
I just saw Galliani on the Bench is he comming on i think he's wearing the number 99 shirt.........
seriously tho hes next to Carlo at the Bench !
r80 misses a good chance
Just a thought: Mattioni seems to be very skillful on the ball, and I would think that with that sort of technique he would be raring to go forward, attack and bombard the box with crosses, but he seems reluctant to do so. He only goes in a few feet into the opponent's area and rarely venture anymore forward.
KAKA
Great goal
Devid + Kaka = Great goal!
1-1
kaka 1-1 good ball by beckham i think
Beckham makes a vertical lobbed pass, Kaka brings it down and slips it in from a tight angle at the right post
kalac is in form
Great save from Kalac, that was one great hit from the Hungary #7
beckham needs to go off he is playing quite rough
My stream did, can anyone keep us posted?
He tries ti replace Gattuso))
Half time
HT hopefully we will se a total new team in next half
we could've done better this first half...Jankulovski, seedorf (not a surprise) were poor...We really need to cover that Area cuz Janku's defensive skills suck...Mattioni needs to work more on his defensive abilities!!!
what's the score i only tuned in now
sheva with tap in 2-1 milan
awww..i just love Kaka..he sets up Sheva...sheva goal 2-1
Darmian just beat two attackers at d back
darmain made a major error whihc has led to goal 2-2
2-2 bad defending by Darmian
sheva with good goal 3-2
Sheva goal..at least he still knows how to score.. Dinho splits the defense
Fishdoll wonders what Darmian did wrong? Bad positioning? Bad tackle? Stop to smell the flowers?
kaka-pisini
beckham-cardaccio
nice pass by Sheva
sheva with very good ball a chip over the defence but as it was for seedorf nothing happend

YEA...Viudez scores...5-2
Thiago Silva is world class

Ronnie's having too much fun
Wow, so the primavera keeper is in now? How's he look?

I hope that this win doesn't get carried over our heads...We've got a tough opponent to play on sunday
FT 5-2
Great save from Perruchini off the corner at about 80 min
Thiago Silva is WORLD CLASS defender
Mattioni was great , he won us a penalty
Viudeze was also good
I liked Strasser and Cardacio too
i think Primavera did good job, but Darmian
Sheva got the armband? That's like throwing it at the garbage bin!!
I'm glad this is over with. Now let's get back to being a professional team.
I'm glad to see this match. Even in bad quality. It was funny.

There were some nicely taken goals in that match
thanks for the highlights
Also i did not realize that my profile page had a statistics page! 2.32 posts per day! maths ftw!
Looks to me like a good match and test for some players. Is Ševčenko coming back? Recent form is, slowly, rising.
Poor Darmain. That lost ball...
lome links with downladable hightlights please because a can`t see the match
