    • AC Milan
    • Parma
    • 90+5' The full-time whistle goes at the San Siro and Milan have overcome Parma 2-0 courtesy of a brace from striker Marco Borriello, although it was not as easy as it sounds for Leonardo's side who move into fourth in the Serie A table.
    • 90+3' GOAL!!!! Borriello seals the victory for Milan with his second goal of the match in stoppage time! Again it is Ronaldinho who provides the assist from the left and it is an acrobatic volley from the striker to secure his brace!
    • 90+1' Zambrotta defends desperately to deny Paloschi who continues to cause problems for the Milan back four.
    • 90' Five minutes will be added at the end of this second half with Milan still holding their 1-0 lead.
    • 89' Borriello gets to the byline down the left but his pin-point cross is headed powerfully against the bar by Thiago Silva!
    • 88' Lanzafame and Budel show their fresh legs in chasing the Milan defence around but to no avail as yet.
    • 87' Pato shows good work-rate in harrying down in the Parma half to keep the pressure on the visitors.
    • 86' Leonardo paces the touchline anxiously as Milan look to cling on to their 1-0 lead now.
    • 85' Zambrotta goes down under a hefty challenge from Amoruso but he is unscathed and gets back to his feet pretty quickly.

    • 81' Milan break once more through Pato down the right but Seedorf slows things up in the corner.
    • 79' Ambrosini fouls Amoruso as Parma counter at last after being under the cosh.

    • 77' Kaladze brings the ball down the right for Milan who continue to press for a second.
    • 76' Budel is now coming on for Galloppa in Parma's final change as this second half becomes increasingly stop-start.
    • 75' Ambrosini comes on for Milan in Leonardo's second change with Gattuso the man to be withdrawn.
    • 73' Dida is swiftly out to challenge Paloschi but the striker lifts the ball high and wide over the oncoming keeper.
    • 71' Lanzafame replaces Bojinov as Parma make their second change of the match.
    • 70' Pato goes down very easily in the box and the referee rightly tells him to get up and pull himself together.
    • 69' Dellafiore is treated on the field after a clash of heads with Gattuso and has a big white bandage to show for his efforts.
    • 68' Leonardo is suddenly very animated as Pirlo clashes with Amoruso on halfway but the Milan player comes off the better.
    • 67' Paloschi lays the ball out to Bojinov once more, but he is crowded out as Dida gets a goal kick.
    • 65' Galloppa releases Bojinov but Zambrotta is again swiftly in to make the challenge.
    • 64' Zambrotta sweeps down the left for Milan but his run is quickly ended by a superb tackle by Panucci.
    • 63' Amoruso is fouled by Gattuso as the second half continues to be a scrappy, attritional affair.
    • 62' Indeed, it is Amoruso who comes on with Dzemalli making way for the forward.
    • 60' Amoruso looks ot be coming on for Parma to bolster their attack.
    • 59' Seedorf battles away with Dzemalli in midfield but to no avail as the Parma man brings the ball away.

    • 56' Lucarelli fouls Pato as Milan's attacking play is broken up once more.
    • 55' Gattuso scraps away in characteristic fashion before releasing Pirlo - what a combative player he is!
    • 53' Mirante lumps the ball upfield and Paloschi challenges with Kaladze but loses out.
    • 52' Luca Antonini limps off gingerly after sustaining what looks to be a hamstring strain and Gianluca Zambrotta is the man to replace him.
    • 51' Zaccardo brings the ball out of defence for Parma and plays it down the line to Galloppa before Oddo makes the tackle.
    • 50' Seedorf and Ronaldinho again move the ball in slick fashion through the Parma half until Morrone makes a well-timed challenge.
    • 49' Gattuso and Pirlo combine in midfield before the latter sprays the ball out to Seedorf as Milan press forward once more.
    • 47' Seedorf and Ronaldinho debate who is going to take a free kick 30 yards out before the Brazilian fires it over the crossbar - that settles that then!
    • 46' The second half is underway at the San Siro with Milan eager to add to their 1-0 lead.
    • 45+1' The half-time whistle goes at the San Siro with Milan holding a slender one-goal lead courtesy of Marco Borriello's 12th-minute strike!
    • 45' Just one minute will be added at the end of this first half with barely any stoppages at all.
    • 44' Paloschi drills a low shot wide of Dida's far post and the Milan keeper had that covered all the way and barely dived towards it.
    • 43' Ronaldinho is booked for diving out on the left wing and that was utterly needless on the halfway line.
    • 42' Borriello has a hugely ambitious shot from range which flies over the bar.
    • 41' Mirante gets caught hopelessly out of position by Ronaldinho cannot capitalise with Panucci sweeping up.
    • 39' Seedorf challenges for the ball inside the Parma box but Zaccardo defends strongly to turn the ball away.
    • 38' Ronaldinho is being marked very closely by Panucci down the Milan left but the Brazilian wriggles free to whip in a cross which evades Borriello.
    • 37' Zaccardo runs the ball coolly back to Mirante after being stalked with the ball by Borriello.
    • 36' Dellafiore has a shot from the edge of the Milan area but it is dreadfully tame and Dida can simply bend down to collect it!
    • 35' Bojinov fires his shot wide from the edge of the penalty area after Paloschi chested the ball superbly into his path.
    • 34' Pato squanders a relatively simple chance to double Milan's lead! Massimo Oddo whips in a devilish delivery from the right which Pato completely misses from close range and unmarked!
    • 33' Ronaldinho attempts to thread an incisive pass through to Pato but it goes awry.
    • 31' Morrone plays a lofted pass out to Bojinov but the striker can only make a yard of space and Silva makes a stern tackle.
    • 30' Pato plays a sloppy pass to Ronaldinho and Parma can bring the ball out of defence once more.
    • 29' Ronaldinho and Pirlo combine effectively down the left but Zaccardo is quickly in to make the challenge.
    • 27' Morrone floats a deep cross to Paloschi but again the forward cannot collect it.
    • 26' Pirlo feeds Seedorf out on the left but his ball to Borriello is poor.
    • 25' Paloschi fails to control the ball as it drops from over his shoulder and Milan can build once more.
    • 24' Milan keep the ball comfortably in their half, spraying the ball around through Pirlo who typically sees a lot of the ball in midfield.
    • 23' What a chance for Parma! Galloppa gets to the byline and dinks a deep cross to the back post but Bojinov's header is palmed away by Dida!
    • 22' Gattuso plays the ball out to Pirlo but another attack breaks down as Parma defend stoutly.
    • 21' Kakha Kaladze shows his strength down the right for Milan but his cross is poor as Parma clear once more.
    • 19' Galloppa brings the ball forward for Parma but Seedorf trips him on halfway to bring an abrupt end to it.
    • 18' Pato thumps the ball upfield for Borriello but the striker cannot quite latch on to it on this occasion.

    • 14' Milan are dominating possession now as Seedorf and Pirlo enjoy seeing a lot of the ball.
    • 12' GOAL!!! Great play from Ronaldinho down the left as the Brazilian cuts inside and lays the ball off to Borriello, who simply tucks the ball under the diving Mirante!
    • 12' Dzemalli unleashes a fierce drive from the edge of the Milan box which Dida does superbly to tip onto the bar and away for a corner - great effort!
    • 12' Ronaldinho forces his way down the left to the byline but Gattuso heads wide as he meets the delivery at the back post.
    • 11' Borriello has a snap-volley at the back post but he cannot control his shot as it skews off his boot and away for a goal kick.
    • 10' Pirlo's effort is poor and it strikes the top of the wall and away for a corner.
    • 9' Pirlo is tugged back by Dzemalli and the midfielder will whip this set-piece in himself.
    • 7' Seedorf produces a powerful run down the centre of the field for Milan but it is ended abruptly by Zaccardo.
    • 6' Bojinov shows a great first touch to take the ball down in his stride but he fires his shot wide.
    • 5' Morrone challenges with Seedorf in midfield as the game is yet to settle down.
    • 3' Gattuso makes a poor challenge on Lucarelli and the midfielder is very fortunate to get away with a warning there.
    • 2' Milan win an early corner thanks to the foraging of Borriello down the right.
    • 1' We are underway in the first half at the San Siro as Parma get us underway.

    • - After 10 matches of their Serie A campaign, Parma are one point ahead of Milan and come into the match off the back of a 2-0 win over Bari, while Leonardo's side were held 2-2 at Napoli.
    • - Milan host Parma at the San Siro, looking to leapfrog their visitors into fourth spot in Serie A.
