    • - Thanks for joining us tonight... see you next time.
    • 90'+5 There goes the final whistle! And Milan are knocked off top spot as Lecce win a point in injury time!
    • 90'+3 NO! GOAL! LECCE EQUALISE AT THE DEATH! It's Espostio who heads home Zanchetta's free kick into the Milan box! Amazing scenes! And it looks like the hosts have done enough to take a point!
    • 88' Ronaldinho's goal is looking like separating the two sides... time running out.
    • 84' Ronaldinho is replaced by Emerson... his job is done here tonight.
    • 81' And now Pato races off towards goal again! He's already terrorising the Lecce defence! This time he shoots... wide of the mark!
    • 79' GOAL! WHAT AN INSPIRED SUBSTITUTION! MILAN TAKE THE LEAD! Pato bursts down the right hand side with his first touch... he crosses in and Ronaldinho is there to slide the ball home! He's done it again!
    • 78' Polenghi stays off... on comes Esposito... and Milan make a double change at the same time... Pato and for Kaka and Inzaghi on for Borriello.
    • 77' Gattuso collides with Polenghi... and the Lecce player comes out worse off...
    • 75' Oh dear, Borriello's having a nightmare! He again fires over from close range when scoring seems easier! Milan players are unhappy with Stendardo's challenge on Bonera moments earlier - they want a pen - but that doesn't excuse Borriello's miss.
    • 71' Borriello's not happy again with the ref's decision to penalise him for fouling the keeper...
    • 66' Giacomazzi's afternoon is over... Casserta comes on to replace him.
    • 61' Ronaldinho takes it himself! But it's wide of the mark and Benussi isn't troubled!
    • 60' Giacomazzi's not having the best of days... he's booked for a foul on Ronaldinho...
    • 58' Here comes a cambio for Lecce... off goes Munari and on comes Ardito.
    • 55' Jankulovski fires a volley wide when he should at least hit the target!
    • 52' Kaka breaks through the Lecce backline! One on one with the keeper... he gets to the ball first, but his stabbed effort past Benussi goes wide of the mark!
    • 50' Giacomazzi! How does he miss that? He's unmarked at the far post as the ball comes to him... it's a standing header, yet he fails to hit the target! Indeed, it's a couple of yards wide of the mark!
    • 48' Borriello threatens to burst through here... great challenge by Stendardo! That was risky, but he made the right decision in the end!
    • 46' Back underway!
    • 45'+1 Half time in Lecce! And it's goalless at the break.
    • 45' Diamoutene hauls down Flamini as the Frenchman looks to break forward... and he gets a booking for his troubles.
    • 40' Borriello's through here... one on one with the keeper but he doesn't look up and ends up running straight into Benussi! Real chance wasted!
    • 38' Kaka sends in a dangerous cross looking for the head of Borriello... Benussi comes out to punch clear...
    • 35' What a miss at the far post by Borriello! The corner comes all the way through to him, but from two yards out he manages to lift the ball over the bar!
    • 34' BORRIELLO! He slides in with Benussi... his effort takes a hefty deflection and loops up towards goal... Diamoutene hacks clear off the line!
    • 30' Half an hour gone and still no breakthrough in Lecce...
    • 24' The referee brandishes another yellow card, this time in the direction of Favalli's central defensive partner Bonera...
    • 21' Yellow for Favalli as the Milan defender piles into the back of Cacia...
    • 18' Oh dear, that's poor control by Cacia when he latches onto a flick on from a free kick... the ball slips underneath his studs and the chance goes begging.
    • 16' Cacia fires goalwards for Lecce now! Oooh! Just wide of Abbiati's upright!
    • 12' Real chance for Milan! Kaka fires in a shot which Benussi can only kick back out to Borriello! But the Rossoneri hitman hits the side netting from close range with the rebound!
    • 9' Stendardo flies in on Kaka.... that's a poor challenge from the on-loan Lazio man and he deservedly goes into the book.
    • 7' Borriello turns onto a through ball... he fires goalwards first time! Wide of the mark, but good intentions from the Milan striker.
    • 5' Ronaldinho sends over a dangerous looking cross into the box... no dice this time though and Lecce come away with the ball.
    • 2' Victory for Milan tonight would see the Rossoneri climb back to the top of Serie A, having been deposed earlier by city rivals Inter.
    • 1' Underway in Lecce, on the heel of Italy!
