Milan did not play at all well and looked a tired side against a very well organised Brugges. The team failed to take the chances it had and both Inzaghi and Shevchenko loked off form. Seedorf is still looking the shadow of his former self and Kaka could not do much to inspire the forward line. The Brugge goal came from a counter attack move which saw mendoza finalise well with a well taken shot from Dida 's left which found the corner of the net.

Very drab match with Milan' first and only shot at goal coming in the 82nd minute. Match was played in a constant rain and with half the floodlights system not working and therefore in semi-darkness.

Milan defeated Ajax again at the San Siro with the solitary goal from Pippo Inzaghi in the 67th minute. hero of the match however was Dida who made a super save in the 92nd minute from a van der Vaart close range shot from about 2 metres after Milan were reduced to 10 men with the expulsion of Gattuso.

The match was a balanced one with Milan showing the best efforts especially through Kaka, who was however, only brilliant in the first half. His touches were a delight to watch and the crowd is already rooting for this great upcoming star. Milan has several chances through Shevchenko and Inzaghi but failed to materialise for some reason or another. Costacurta went off injured in the first half to be replaced by Laursen who had a good match marking the dangerous Ibrahimovic.

Second half saw more of the same with Milan keeping possesion and finding Sheva and inzaghi up front. Milan took the lead when Inzaghi controlled the ball on the right, turned his defender and moved to the left finding Shevchenko in the box. The Ukranian in turn turned his defender and immediately shot. Lobont made the reflex save only to find Inzaghi pouncing on the rebounding and slotting home into the empty net.

Ancelotti then made a few moves moving Ambrosini for Inzaghi in order to defend the result. Milan could easily have closed the match but Shevchenko saw Lobont making some good saves. Kaka then hit the post after beating his marker but the nailbiting affair was again left to the dying minutes. gattuso was sent off for a reaction on Ibrahimovic. Ajax saw their chance to attack and moved menacingly forward with all their men. From one of these attacks the ball fell to van der Vaart whose immediate shot saw Dida make a superb save which will not be easily forgotten at the San Siro.
