00:05Hello, good afternoon to one at all like you we are very much ready to go here
00:11Looking forward to a game
00:13That has been the topic for a universal conversation in this part of the world
00:18much of the last
00:23Real chance and a real let-off Oh Kaka put absolutely everything he had into that
00:29Maybe better look next time
00:35Jarvis
00:39They really should have been made to pay well
00:42I think the opposition was pretty sloppy in creating the problem for themselves then but he goes on to it so quickly and very nearly made them pay
00:52Challenge he just stood firm
00:55more than happy to take the muscular approach
00:58Castledine
01:01Jarvis provides an outlet
01:13Has a hit
01:15Big relief it just needed better contact. Oh, no, that was a chance. What a chance
01:22And it's paid forward
01:37Spezia have played a lot of games just lately squad rotation or tinkering start to become prevalent at times like this
01:46Absolutely. I think nowadays the science that goes on behind the scenes can tell a manager who's in the best shape
01:52So he can use that information now to juggle the squad
01:55He's on the move and he's going to have to go and he's going to have to go at Jarvis
02:03A collective sigh of relief from the defense
02:05He gets past his man
02:10He gets past his man
02:12Milan are still boasting a perfect record with a quarter of the season gone
02:20And i'm thoroughly enjoying the run and for me they're the best team in the league so far
02:24They've set a standard that will be hard to maintain, but what a fantastic start for them
02:35Spezia getting a lot of touches here, but they're not making much progress
02:39Chavez
02:47Hits off target and by quite a way yeah on another occasion all that went wrong may come right
02:53Hits off target and by quite a bit of solidity they've not conceded in five games
03:12Oh
03:17Surely that deserves better it didn't quite come off on this occasion, but it only needs a gentle tweak
03:31I've just joined us well you've missed no goals
03:34In look battles to win it back and it's a caca
03:48And he heaves it forward
03:50Milan get it back again
03:53Spezia have a free kick
03:56Jarvis gets his final warning
04:04Caps it out
04:15Jarvis
04:18Looks to play him in a minor communications breakdown
04:31That is as far as they go to go
04:35Shoots
04:39I can't speak hype oh that is asking for trouble
04:50Up for a header
04:53Decent attempt but not quite good enough
04:55Chavez
05:04Caliguri
05:05Caliguri
05:06Shapes to shoot
05:09He's pulled up a fine save
05:11Caliguri really must have felt he had the measure of the keeper then but how wrong he was
05:16Massively
05:21In his head but couldn't steer it in
05:23It'll be a throw-in
05:37It'll be a throw-in
05:38He's got options out wide
05:46Up to meet it
05:47Goal
05:49What's a super header
05:55Dispatch beautifully
05:57Well look it's it's often the timing of the jump that dictates what you can do with any header and if you get it slightly wrong
06:02Don't be wrong and you'll struggle but that was beautifully met it really was
06:12You
06:14Milan draw first blood here
06:25Well that's the currency he deals in
06:27And he's come good yet again never the one to let you down in these situations
06:46Hardly anything between the sides and it's one nil
07:01What a throw in
07:04He's not played the ball that's a foul
07:07And the referee has showed him a yellow card
07:16He's played him through
07:32He's on his way it's Chobis
07:35Oh that is rather wayward
07:37Yeah, they got away with it, but that was a defensive let down to see him march through like that
07:46Oh
08:01Spezia to retain the ball, but
08:04No rush to break forward
08:07That's a foul free kicks been given
08:16It's a loose ball
08:23Spezia being made to look sloppy in possession here
08:26This could spell danger
08:29That's just very well played he can't hurt you with his back to go and he didn't go for the back here
08:39Has gone out
08:46Cross deflected behind for a corner
09:16Spezia couldn't do a whole lot with it there, they could do with more sharpness in their passing, and that has been clubbed away.
09:29Made into space out wide.
09:42Gets it back.
10:04In with the challenge, whistle's gone, that's a foul.
10:12Foot in, brought forward, what does he try from here, played out to the right, going through, he's had a shot!
10:32Oh, just lacked a decent finish, still a cracking effort, really looked like a man on a mission the way he went through on goal.
10:40Go for it, he's given a throw.
10:56Go for it, he's given a throw.
11:08And it's been taken straight back.
11:10Okaka!
11:28There is the half-time whistle.
11:30There we are, off they go for half-time.
11:32The Pensacola's win indeed come in the first half, but there has only been that one goal.
11:37It is very, very tight.
11:40It's the first half compared with your expectation.
11:42Milan deserved to be ahead, and probably should be in front by more, considering the amount of chances they've managed.
11:49Everything points to more of the same second half, and a good solid win.
11:55Milan needing 1-0 at the break.
11:58Already up and running for the second half.
12:02A solitary goal.
12:03That has been the crucial difference.
12:05And here's Okaka.
12:11He's found it.
12:12Jarvis!
12:15Oh, denied brilliantly!
12:17Well as Tesco, Peter, the keeper, he's just received an A-plus grade.
12:21That's great.
12:32Hedda!
12:34Another chance!
12:36Into the forward!
12:38It's a goal!
12:42Two to the good!
12:43They have grieving space!
12:47He was so alert to the possibilities there.
12:49Great stuff!
12:51Look, there's only one player who merits all the praise for that.
12:54Not only did he finish it, but his instincts for being where he was.
12:58Absolutely top notch.
13:15Things starting to look very comfortable.
13:17Well that second goal has given them so much more command and confidence now,
13:21and they should be able to take it on from here and either add to their lead or close it out.
13:26Yeah, he's fouled in there.
13:27He ran himself into trouble there.
13:28Free kick given away.
13:29See?
13:30He's fouled in there!
13:31.
13:51Ran himself into trouble there, free kick given away.
13:54.
13:59.
14:15Okaka, who's steaming forward.
14:18He's on a charge, but he's on his own for now.
14:21.
14:24Big relief, he just needed better contact.
14:27I think he still deserves full marks for making his way through.
14:31It was a cracking run.
14:35Spezia seeker performance here, which reflects rather better on the boss.
14:39He's taken a fair amount of criticism in the wake of the last game.
14:43Yeah, but he brought the criticism upon himself by making substitutions that didn't really make sense.
14:49They added confusion when he really needed cohesion.
14:52He's gone away.
14:54.
14:56.
14:57Okaka.
14:58.
14:59.
15:00.
15:01Reprieve albeit perhaps momentary
15:12Well the moans and groans from the stands now are very audible and they found themselves tending
15:24This defense is is weary about opposition pace, so they're just not getting too tight
15:29Yeah, they know that if they they step up there their keeper could get a whole lot busier
15:41He's left his man and here's a cucka
15:52Hoy sit forward
15:54And always looked inevitable the defense dealt with that really well
16:03Danger averted for now
16:11Christian that's a foul
16:13There's the talking to I think yes, it is well with them already been on a yellow. He should know much better than that
16:29Promising move that good inroads into enemy territory, but no joy
16:35Gets away from his opponents
16:37That's been levered clear
16:49Time and again, they are repelled and note that is pretty much the end of that
16:58Can he deliver
17:00Cowering header
17:02Forward it goes
17:06Struck first time
17:08Well, even for him that may have been a touch ambitious
17:11Very well to intervene
17:25Very well to intervene
17:27Gets the better of his man
17:29Arcas
17:31Has a goal
17:33Yes
17:33Yes
17:36And the lead is three
17:38It is surely done
17:44Looking back at that that's how you play on the counter quick and decisive and ruthless with the finish
17:49I thought it was a stunning stunning break alone
17:54He's made it two and no doubt he's hungry for more
17:56More
18:13Milan take a three goal lead and they are romping out of sight
18:17Almost 75 minutes on the clock now
18:32And it's Bocchetti
18:35Going through
18:37It's one
18:39And a second time
18:41Back of the net
18:43It is no contest
18:46It is a landslide
18:52He was never going to miss from there
18:55Our players like this fella almost have a sixth sense to get themselves in such great coaching positions
19:00How quick London was that?
19:04When the manager called on him, he was only too happy to repay that faith
19:07Well the instruction from the manager would have been go on and make yourself a nuisance and see if you can snatch a goal
19:13Mission accomplished
19:30Things looking so easy almost too easy here
19:32Well, they're very much the better team at the moment Peter and no doubt we'll be looking to to cause even more damage here
19:41He gets past his man
19:45Greatly!
19:47That has flown over
19:49Oh, I'm not sure what he had in mind and I don't think he knew either
19:52I don't think he knew either
20:12Just brushed off the ball there
20:14Spezia are stuck in central station
20:16And they might find the fast track out wide if they care to look
20:23Oh, he's shot at goal!
20:26No, it's wide
20:28Look, I don't want to sound too dismissive
20:30But from here that looks the harder thing to do
20:32Great strength too strong for his opponent
20:50Chavez
20:52He could be in here
20:54He could be in here
20:55And Orcas
20:57Really well taken goal
20:59A contest no more
21:03It is nothing short of utter humiliation
21:10It's part of the game Peter, it has to get ruthless
21:13Sympathy just doesn't play a part
21:14Just doesn't play a part
21:44It's become a case of men against boys
21:50Well, it's been an absolutely fabulous spell for them and they're starting to look unstoppable
21:58There could be more on the way
22:01This is gone, that's a foul
22:03There could be trouble here
22:05But for now the referee is keeping his cards in his pocket
22:08Can't get the better of his opposite number
22:22It's been intercepted and that will come to nothing
22:26Five minutes left on the clock
22:29Just brushed off the ball there
22:33Needless to say, he was expecting a better ball than that
22:38Not much subtlety, he's launched himself there
22:50And the shots
22:53He's put it wide
22:57So now we're going to get those changes we have been expecting
23:00Yeah, he's run himself into the ground hasn't he
23:03And it's good to see that the crowd appreciate his efforts
23:05Because he has put in a real honest shift
23:14Gets it back
23:16Time added on
23:18Four minutes
23:22The balls come loose and the chase is on
23:23And the chase is on
23:35Oh, good interception
23:40Castledine
23:42Inla
23:44And it's Calicuri
23:46Castledine
23:48And that will be the final act
23:51And that will be the final act
23:53And a great day for attacking football
23:55The artists have painted their pretty pictures
