Final score

Arsenal and AC Milan drew 0-0 in 1st Leg on Wednesday, February 20, 2008 at Emirates Stadium.

Play by play

  1. 93'

    A great result for Milan. Classic European defending and Maldini was a rock at the back. Adebayor was closest to finding the breakthrough, but it wasn't to be. See you in two weeks time...

  2. 93'

    Oh what a chance. That was the one, as Adebayor hit the bar from inside the six yard box!

  3. 93'

    Walcott bursts down the right. Great ball in and Adebayor hits the bar!!!!

  4. 93'

    One last chance.

  5. 93'

    It's been a tough game for the Gunners and the return leg at the San Siro will be even tougher. Arsenal have failed to take their chances and may live to regret it.

  6. 92'

    Milan solid at the back and Arsenal look out of ideas.

  7. 91'

    Oddo has to get his head on the ball at the back post. Fabregas with the corner and Flamini was close. Walcott struck the volley and Gallas nearly gets a touch! Zalac is there though.

  8. 90'

    Hleb stumbles and Fabregas gives the ball away. Milan are happy with the draw and are all behind the ball.

  9. 90'

    Very little time for the Englishman to do anything though. Pirlo has another go, evidently he's trying to waste as much time as possible.

  10. 89'

    Walcott comes on for Eboue.

  11. 88'

    Eboue latches on to an Adebayor header. He should have found Hleb, who overruns it. Back to Bendtner, and he blasts it well over.

  12. 87'

    Pirlo might have a crack from here? It's a very long way out, but he does. Terrible though. The would have struggled to go in even without a keeper.

  13. 87'

    Sagna swings the ball in, but is unable to find an Arsenal head. Milan holding strong and still look dangerous on the counter.

  14. 85'

    Lehmann does well to save from the corner there! He's had very little to do.

  15. 85'

    Seedorf comes off for Emerson.

  16. 84'

    Flamini is climbing all over Gattuso.

  17. 83'

    Clichy controls the ball perfectly under pressure, but his ball forward finds Adebayor up against Maldini.

  18. 83'

    Bendtner with the ball in. Adebayor is unable to get there. Now Hleb swings it and Bendtner can't get there. What pressure. Milan really on the back foot.

  19. 83'

    Zalac is being worked here! Another shot fired in. Regulation save though from Fabregas. At least they're shooting on goal.

  20. 82'

    Arsenal having to defend, but now they can break. Adebayor manages to get a shot off as the ball drops. He could have really made a difference there, but didn't quite catch the shot as he would have liked.

  21. 80'

    Kaka turns his man at the other end. Great sliding tackle from Senderos!

  22. 80'

    Eboue is booked for diving. He pushed the ball past Jankulovski, but he's an absolute disgrace! Rightly booked.

  23. 79'

    Barca's comeback is complete and it's Messi again!

  24. 78'

    Bendtner again lacks the control in the danger zone. He gives it away and Clichy is furious with the ref for pulling him back.

  25. 78'

    Good build up play from Arsenal. Fabregas spreads it wide and Eboue gets the cross in. Well held by Kalac after the ball was deflected.
