The goal had to come though and who else but Cesc? He was a little
magician in the midfield yesterday, dictating the pace of the game,
popping up all over the place and when he took the ball on, drove past
a couple of Milan players and unleashed a shot from 30 yards, seeing it
nestle in the bottom corner was no less than he deserved. 1-0 to the
Arsenal and that meant Milan had to score 2 in the last 5 minutes. As
they hadn’t much looked like scoring in the previous 85 it was hard not
to feel confident. (Arseblog on Arsenal's 2 - 0 Champions League victory over last year's winners, A.C. Milan)
