The Belarusian side will be determined to make amends for that emphatic defeat although Milan will have other ideas as they bid to keep pace with Barcelona at the summit. Previous meetings • Milan were 6-0 aggregate winners when the clubs met in the 2001/02 UEFA Cup first round. Andriy Shevchenko and Javi Moreno earned the Rossoneri a 2-0 first-leg win in Belarus and they prevailed 4-0 back in Italy courtesy of Rui Costa, Moreno, Mohamed Sarr and a Filippo Inzaghi penalty. • Christian Abbiati and Gennaro Gattuso played in the first leg for Milan while Viktor Goncharenko, now BATE coach, appeared at San Siro alongside Aleksandr Fedorovich and Aleksei Baga – his assistant coaches today – and Artyom Kontsevoi. Match background • Massimiliano Allegri's hosts will hope their defeat of Plzeň marks the start of an improved run of home form in the UEFA Champions League. In the previous two seasons they had won just one of eight fixtures at San Siro, losing four of them. • BATE are unbeaten in their four European away games this term, recording a win and three draws – including a 1-1 stalemate at Plzeň on matchday one. • BATE might also take heart from their two draws against Juventus on their UEFA Champions League group stage debut in 2008/09 – 2-2 in Minsk and 0-0 in Turin. Of the present BATE squad, Dmitri Likhtarovich, Vitali Rodionov, Aleksandr Yurevich and substitute Aleksandr Volodko all played in that first UEFA Champions League visit to Italy in December 2008. • The Borisov club's only other game on Italian soil was a UEFA Intertoto Cup third round encounter with Bologna FC in 2002. They lost 2-0 and that proved the eventual aggregate score of a tie in which Goncharenko was an unused substitute for both legs. Team ties • Mark van Bommel and Mateja Kežman were colleagues at PSV Eindhoven from 2000 to 2004, winning Dutch titles together in 2001 and 2003. • The much-travelled Kežman has scored three goals in seven matches against Italian opposition in UEFA's club competitions. After drawing two blanks when his FK Partizan side lost to S.S. Lazio in the 1998/99 UEFA Cup Winners' Cup second round, he scored against the same opposition for PSV in a 2-1 defeat at the Stadio Olimpico in the 2001/02 UEFA Champions League first group stage. • The Serbian also struck twice when PSV overcame AC Perugia in the 2003/04 UEFA Cup third round. He later lined up against Zlatan Ibrahimović when his Fenerbahçe SK team beat FC Internazionale Milano 1-0 in the UEFA Champions League group stage in 2007/08. • Philippe Mexès's France lost 1-0 at home to a Belarus side featuring Yurevich and Rodionov in their nations' opening UEFA EURO 2012 qualifier in September last year. • Marco Amelia and Daniele Bonera were in the Italy team that suffered a surprise 2-1 loss to a Belarus lineup which included Kontsevoi and Baga at the UEFA European Under-21 Championship in May 2004. • Ignazio Abate's Italy ran out 2-1 winners against the Belarus of Maksim Bordachev, Pavel Chesnovski and Aleksandr Volodko at the U21 finals in June 2009. • Yegor Filipenko, Mikhail Gordeychuk, Aleksandr Gutor and Maksim Skavysh helped Belarus eliminate Italy in a play-off last October for the 2011 U21 finals. Last updated 17/10/11 23:54:38CET 3 Match background AC Milan - FC BATE Borisov Wednesday 19 October 2011 - 20.45CET (20.45 local time) MATCH PRESS KIT Stadio Giuseppe Meazza, Milan Match facts Milan UEFA milestones • Milan have scored 199 goals in the UEFA Champions League, and conceded 199 in the European Cup. UEFA Champions League statistics • Gennaro Gattuso is serving the third of a four-game ban. Latest domestic information • Saturday 15 October: AC Milan 3-0 US Città di Palermo (Nocerino 39, Robinho 55, Cassano 63) Abbiati; Abate, Nesta, Thiago Silva (Bonera 34), Antonini; Nocerino, Van Bommel, Aquilani; Robinho (Emanuelson 66); Ibrahimović, Cassano (El Shaarawy 79) • Facing his former employers, Antonio Nocerino scored his first goal for Milan as the Rossoneri extended their unbeaten run at San Siro in Serie A to 14 matches, since a 1-0 defeat by AS Roma on 18 December 2010. • Milan have kept clean sheets in three of their last four fixtures. • The Rossoneri's haul of one win and two draws from their first five league games represents the worst start to a Serie A defence since SSC Napoli in 1990/91. • Milan lost 2-0 to Juventus on 2 October – the only time they have failed to score this season. • Clarence Seedorf's goal in the 1-0 win against AC Cesena meant the 35-year-old has now scored in each of his 20 campaigns as a professional. • On 18 September, Napoli's Edinson Cavani became the first player since ACF Fiorentina's Gabriel Batistuta (26 September 1998) to record a hat-trick against Milan, scoring all his side's goals in a 3-1 win. • Milan have started their last three seasons as Serie A champions with a 2-2 draw, following stalemates against US Lecce (1999/2000), AS Livorno Calcio (2004/05) and S.S. Lazio (2011/12). Injury news • Robinho scored against Palermo − his first league or UEFA Champions League appearance of the season − having recovered from a toe injury sustained in the summer. Philippe Mexès (knee, out since 3 April) was available but not named among the substitutes. • Seedorf missed out at San Siro with a knee problem sustained in training during the week. Thiago Silva was forced off after 34 minutes with a knock to his left leg. • Massimo Ambrosini (shoulder) and Kevin-Prince Boateng (hip), both out since 13 September, returned against Juventus though the latter was sent off. • Pato has resumed training following a right thigh problem that has kept him out since 21 September. • Mathieu Flamini will miss the group stage after damaging knee ligaments in a 2-1 pre-season friendly victory against Juventus on 21 August. International duty • Antonio Cassano scored twice on 11 October – the second set up by Alberto Aquilani – as Italy finished their unbeaten UEFA EURO 2012 qualifying campaign with a 3-0 win against Northern Ireland. • Without the suspended Zlatan Ibrahimović, Sweden nevertheless beat the Netherlands – captained by Mark van Bommel – 3-2 on 11 October to qualify automatically for UEFA EURO 2012 as best runners-up. Miscellaneous • Former Milan vice-president Gianni Nardi died aged 80 on 4 October. • Former Milan captain Paolo Maldini received a commemorative UEFA cap and medal before Italy's game against Northern Ireland for his achievement of making a century of appearances for the Azzurri. BATE UEFA milestones • Before their matchday two loss to FC Barcelona, BATE were a club record nine matches unbeaten in UEFA competition.

  • NETHERLANDS V ITALY MATCH PRESS KIT Municipal, Aveiro Monday, 29 May 2006 - 19:45 Local Time Final Tournament - Group Phase Group B - Matchday 6
    NETHERLANDS v ITALY MATCH PRESS KIT Municipal, Aveiro Monday, 29 May 2006 - 19:45 local time Final tournament - Group phase Group B - Matchday 6 For two countries with rich heritage at all levels, it is perhaps surprising that when the Netherlands and Italy come face to face in the third and final round of Group B matches at the UEFA European Under-21 Championship, it will be their first competitive meeting. Italy sit top of the group with four points thanks to Giorgio Chiellini's added-time winner against Ukraine which followed their similarly dramatic 3-3 draw with Denmark. The Netherlands are still looking for their first victory after losing to Ukraine then drawing with Denmark, and must win to advance. • The countries have rarely come into opposition at youth level either, although when they have crossed paths it has invariably been a close contest. At the 2005 European U17 Championship hosts Italy won through to a semi-final against the Dutch but home advantage proved irrelevant on this occasion with Melvin Zaalman getting the only goal for the Netherlands in extra time. Italy had had the better of their four meetings at U16 level with three victories including a 6-1 triumph in the 1990 qualifying round and edged out the Dutch on penalties to reach the U18 finals in 1998/99, when they went on to the final before losing to Portugal. • At senior level perhaps their most significant meeting was in the semi-finals of UEFA EURO 2000™ when, on home soil, the Dutch missed two penalties in normal time against ten-man Italy with Frank de Boer and Patrick Kluivert both failing from the spot.

  • Di Andrea Pirlo
    WIKO SCENDE IN CAMPO COME MAIN SPONSOR PER “LA NOTTE DEL MAESTRO” DI ANDREA PIRLO Milano, 21/05/2018 – Wiko annuncia la sponsorship della partita di addio al calcio giocato di Andrea Pirlo, “La Notte del Maestro”, che tra poche ore riempirà lo stadio Giuseppe Meazza di Milano, dove sono attesi migliaia di fan e due formazioni stellari di sportivi che hanno scritto la storia del calcio, in Italia e all’estero. In qualità di main sponsor, Wiko sarà presente sulle maglie dei due team in campo, White Stars e Blue Stars, capitanati per l’occasione da Conte, Ancelotti, Allegri e Tassotti. Il brand Wiko sarà protagonista all’interno dello stadio anche sui maxischermi, sui led display a bordocampo, oltre che nell’arco che i giocatori attraverseranno per entrare in campo. Wiko avrà inoltre un palco d’eccezione posizionato accanto alla panchina dei giocatori, che offrirà una prospettiva unica agli ospiti. I fan di Wiko che non saranno presenti allo stadio, potranno seguire l’evento e sentirsi parte integrante di esso con #LussoDemocratico, lanciato in occasione dell’arrivo in Italia dei nuovi smartphone Wiko View 2 e View 2 Pro che, grazie al display da 19:9, garantiscono un’esperienza d’uso ancora più coinvolgente, ad un prezzo competitivo. A tutti coloro che saranno presenti a San Siro invece, Wiko ha riservato una sorpresa prima dell’ingresso allo stadio: gli spettatori saranno infatti accolti dai Wiko Ambassador, pronti a tatuargli sulla mano lo stesso simbolo apparso nei giorni scorsi sulla mano destra di Andrea Pirlo. Coincidenze? Assolutamente no. Si tratta della forma che contraddistingue View 2 e View 2 Pro, ben visibile dal notch tondo che racchiude la fotocamera frontale, e che Andrea ha reso virale sui social mentre stava definendo la formazione che avrebbe schierato in campo.

Ai sedicesimi e ottavi ha eliminato due squadre provenienti dalla fase gironi di UEFA Champions League, ovvero il Salzburg (2-0 t, 2-1 c) e Dynamo Kyiv (2-0 t, 2-0 c), e poi ha battuto nei quarti per due volte la Dinamo Zagreb (1-0 t, 2-1 c), e infine in semifinale ha eliminato l'Arsenal, rivale dello United in Premier League ed ex squadra di Emery, vincendo 2-1 complessivamente (2-1 c, 0-0 t).
