    Time:90'
    • Benfica
    • Milan
    • 90' It ends all square in Lisbon! Thanks for joining us, see you soon.
    • 90+2 Kaka misses the chance to win it in the last minute of injury time! It looks like Benfica have secured their point here.
    • 76' Liverpool are all over Porto right now! They just can't make the final breakthrough. They win a corner as Crouch ducks a cross for Kewell to volley, and it deflects off a defender. Hyypia's near post flick is caught easily.
    • 75' Crouch runs past Cech in the box and GOES DOWN.. NO PENALTY! Good decision by the referee.
    • 72' Babel puts in the cross for CROUCH... Helton manages to jump in and catch just before it reaches Crouchigol!
    • 66' Absolute heroics from Dida, as he saves first from Nuno Gomes and then from Leo!
    • 55' Milan make another change as Gourcuff comes on for Brocchi.
    • 54' RUI COSTA SHOOTS... GOOD SAVE DIDA! Rui Costa went for it against his old club!
    • 46' The second half kicks off! Carlo Ancelotti wisely brings in Paolo Maldini for Serginho, who is looking a liability.
    • 45' Half time is called in Lisbon! Milan's problems continue, though they still have enough quality to win this one.
    • 41' Serginho goes into the book for Milan now. The way they play football, they don't want too many people carrying yellow cards for a half.
    • 36' Kaladze is cautioned for a handball. Leo and Maxi Pereira both have shots blocked. The champions are looking shaky at the moment!
    • 20' GOAL! Benfica have levelled it through Maxi Pereira!
    • 15' GOAL!! Andrea Pirlo scores with yet another free kick! He got one at the weekend and he's got another one here! Is there anyone better in the world with a dead ball? Answer: No.
    • 7' It's end-to-end here, as first Gilardino and then Maxi Pereirra are ruled offside.
    • 4' Clarence Seedorf SHOOTS... SAVED by Quim!
    • 1' We're underway here in Portugal!
