Milan thrashes Siena in a one sided battle

With Milan’s title hopes this season are all but over, both the club owner Berlusconi and its manager Ancelotti had earlier declared that the present goal is to qualify for next year’s Champions’ League. Milan proved their mettle and marched steadily towards the safe berth with a crushing win over struggling Siena.

Ac Milan, supported by an excellent show by the in-form Inzaghi and Pato, asserted supremacy with a 5-1 win against the 15th ranked side. The win was a major boost for the side, which is depleted of most of its star players due to injuries. The match saw the most awaited return of Ronaldinho and Kaka from their injuries.

Pirlo opened the scoring with a penalty in the 5th minute after Flamini was brought down by Kharja. Siena attempted to match Milan’s aggression with 2 shots the target in the 27th and 38th minutes. But it was Milan who sent in the second goal of the match when Inzaghi rolled it past Siena goalkeeper in the first half injury time.

Pato took the lead to 3-0 in the 54th minute with an incredible shot, 30 yards away from the goal. Inzaghi quickly followed it up with his second goal of the match, which was also his 300th career goal. Pato matched Inzaghi muscle for muscle and continued his excellent form with another goal in the 78th minute making it five goals for Milan. Except for Siena’s lone consolation goal in the 64th minute, Siena’s fans had nothing else to cheer or rejoice. It proved to be a completely lop sided affair for the home team.
