The Primavera beat Empoli's primaver 2-0 in the first leg of the Primavera Coppa semis.
Both goals (I think) by Verdi.

Damn! They weren't joking when Galliani two years back said, Milan are gonna be more like Arsenal. We kept thinking he was talking BS...when we were looking at the first team.
The primavera drew today with empoli 1-1 in the second leg of the primavera coppa semi. They go through on aggregate (the first game was a 2-0 win) and will face the winner of palermo-gobbi in the final.
Yay primavera!
Yay primavera!
At least one of our teams is doing well in a competition.
Is Verdi really that good? He seems to be one of the stars for the Primavera

He's highly rated and seems to be scoring regularly. Can't comment other than that; haven't seen him play a full game and youtube clips can be misleading.
Can I know from where you get the information about the primavera,calendar or something like that,thanks.
I think you can get most of this information through the club's official site
Pierre Aubemeyang, former primavera on loan at Lille, had some nice moves for them in their win over the dirtyrottenscousers today.

is there nay defender we could use from this team rite now ?? albertazzi came to mind but i think he is on loan rite now
Nah, Albertazzi is still with the primavera. Darmian's on loan.
DeVito is a fullback who I at least think didn't totally suck when he played in our coppa game.

I wasn't that impressed.
The last player from our primavera that really impressed me was Albertazzi tbh. It was a friendly againt Napoli.
Verdi also impressed for the few minutes he was on in the Coppa this season, he impressed me more in the 15 minutes that he was on then the over-rated Di Gennaro, who couldn't even control the simplest of balls.
Abate and Antonini were winners imo, that one is not...
Slightly off topic, but I downloaded the new FIFA 10 Squads for the winter transfer list, and Verdi was included so he is now a selectable player. I think his OVR is like 64 though lol.

Typical FIFA, the young unkowns are usually in the 60s range, maybe a 70 if they're lucky
We have quite a few talented guys in a prim:
Verdi LW
Zigoni CF
Baretta CF
DeVito FB
Hottor LM
Albertazzi CB
Pasini CB
Strasser DM
Novinic AM
Oudamadi CF
on loan we have:
Darmian CB
Aubemyang CF
upcoming U18 talents:
Uros Plbrik (has a rocket launcher of a foot) CF
Antonio Mihaylov (good finisher) CF

The future is bright

So the first leg of the Primavera coppa just ended: FT Boys in Pink 1-1 Milan
Milan goal by Zigoni.
The primavera keeper, Donnarumma, took down a Palermo kid in the area (with a clear shot on goal). The kid had to be stretchered off. Donnarumma got a straight red, but the replacement keeper, Perucchini, saved the resulting penalty.

I watched the match, that foul on Giovio looked a little rough...He was taken to the hospital and they said that he was alert and could remember everything that happened...so he doesn't seem to be hurt to bad.

Michelangelo Albertazzi and Gianmarco Zigoni have been called up to the U19s for a friendly against Switzerland on April 21.

They'd better score some goals and prevent some others if they wanna live to be called up again!! 
In a good moot today, I see.

So let's see if this year's lot can do something that was last done by a couple of immortals.
The game's going to be on Sky Italia if anyone can get feeds from there.

EVERYONE AT SAN SIRO!
The wait for second leg final of the Primavera Tim Cup between Milan and Palermo is growing. It will be played on Wednesday 14 April at 20.00. The warmth of the fans will be fundamental to spur on Giovanni Stroppa's lads.
MILAN - The moment of truth is coming. On Wednesday 14 April Milan and Palermo will play the Primavera Tim Cup final at San Siro.
The first leg at the Renzo Barbera the match finished 1-1 with Zigoni scoring for the Rossoneri. A balanced match which saw the two teams playing with personality and openness.
Now for Giovanni Stroppa's lads there is a unique chance, to lift a trophy in the air at San Siro which has been missing since the 84-85 season. Back then lads like Maldini, Costacurta, Giunta and Lorenzini won this prestigious trophy.
The wait, it's pointless to say, is great. The whole club is hoping that the pitch factor will push the players to victory, and that the fantastic San Siro stadium will charge up the young Rossoneri lads.
On a very important stage, it's therefore the club's desire to count strongly on the youth sector. For many lads it will be a dream come true. For the whole Rossoneri family it will be a party evening to experience together, from the Pulcini to the First Team, all of whom will want to give their support to the young Rossoneri.
So a great performance will be needed, but especially the support of a numerous crowd and full of enthusiasm to support our young champions together! Don't miss out!

Hopefully this means a couple of youngster will get promoted to the first team squad. If we win of course

Hopefully if a couple get promoted, it would be because they are 1st team material and not because we are cheap.

I have high hopes for Albertazzi and Verdi, while Zigoni seems very promising too. Also bring back Paloschi!

Strasser needs to Work a little harder to earn a chance to be our backup DM behind Flamini
Strasser hasnt convinced me in the same way Darmian or Albertazzi did. He needs to improve a fair amount
I sincerely hope De Vito gets more chances as LB considering the dearth of alternative we have. Could be one for the future though

What displeases me, is the starling lack of technical ability shown by the primavera we have seen. Di Gennaro was supposedly the most talented one of the whole lot, and he's sucked pretty badly. Not one sign of magic. Verdi shows a lot of application, but again no magic!
There's text commentary of the game on milannews in italian here: link
EDIT: Minute 3: Goal MILAN (Verdi)
EDIT: Minute 3: Goal MILAN (Verdi)
Go,Go you milan players!Let the magic of ronaldinho be with you.
Although I don't know Italian I think I will know when someone will score a goal 
Hee hee. Yep, at least they're keeping that word the same. If they really go native and only use Italian, it's usually 'rete'. (there's an italian lexicon in the 'other' section).
We seem to be having the best of the chances so far -- defense having no real problems clearing the occasional Palermo attack and De Vito getting in a couple of good crosses. fyi Albertazzi is playing in the middle.
The stadium isn't full (no big surprise there) but there do seem to be at least SOME folks there including a decent contingent from the curva.

I hope they win,this seems like an important cup,I hope someone posts a vid of the highlights
This is a very important cup and one we haven't won since the Primavera centerbacks were Paolo Maldini and Billy Costacurta. So it's been a while.
Scampini went out injured (calf injury of some sort) and was replaced by Pedrocchi.
HT Milan 1-0 Palermo

Ow,That's a long time,I'm pretty confident they will win this,fish do you know what pos we are in the primavera,not the cup.
I believe we're currently in second place in our division (the primavera squads are broken up into various geographic divisions), a couple of points behind the primavera from that other Milan club. We ARE ahead of Atalanta, which traditionally has a very strong youth program.
ok,thanks for the info.
Goal Zigoni!!!
Goal Zigoni! (minute 62)(Now dst won't cut off any bits!)
EDIT: Strasser has gone off injured (nasty hit to the knee) and has been replaced by De Sciglio.
Lol,these palermo guys are savage,we should throw flamini and gattuso at them,maybe they'll roughen up them up a little.
To be fair, in the first leg game played in Palermo, our keeper took out their best striker (kid had to be taken to the hospital). So there's probably a bit of payback going on.
Didn't know ,and Gratz for our Primavera!

Just for the record, it was FT 2-0 for Milan.
And also for the record, the last time we won the Primavera coppa, Maldini and Costacurta (as stated above) were in defense and the coach was a young Fabio Capello.
Perhaps it's a good omen.

Well if history repeats itself, who is the Primavera coach? It'd be nice to know which England manager I'll be slagging off when I'm 50.
The primavera coach is Giovanni Stroppa who was actually a teenaged player along with Maldini and Costacurta last go round. In his playing days, Stroppa was an attacking mid and was part of Sacchi's Milan and then, after a couple of years away, played another year at Milan under Capello.

Does anyone have highlights for the match?
Saw a youtube vid about Verdi and he really seems to have great potential,and he is still 17
