12:00 - 14:00 ET– Italian Serie A: Torino v AC Milan ***LIVE***

AC Milan travel to the Stadio Olimpico to take on Torino . This fixture will hardly be the Milan ’s priority for the week, however. Look for some Milan ’s key players to be rested ahead of the 2nd Leg of Milan ’s Champions League Semi-final against Manchester United. This could be a golden opportunity for Torino , who are only 2 points ahead of the drop zone, to put some daylight between themselves and the relegation struggles at the bottom of the table.

17:00 - 19:00 ET– Barclays English Premier League: Bolton v Reading ***DELAY***

Bolton continue their quest for European football at home against Reading . After a 2-1 defeat against Arsenal last weekend, the Wanderers may now fall just short of 4th place and Champions League football.

Milan have more than what it takes to reach Athens, says Hasan Saiyid

Gennaro Gattuso, speaking to the press after a 2-0 Milan win over Bayern Munich, could not help but aggrandize his club’s progress into the Champions League semi-final as a triumph for Italian football.

“After yesterday’s 7-1 people were making fun of us,” said Gattuso.

“We are sorry for Roma, but I think Italian football has real value and we are World Champions.”

Roma’s grisly fate at the hands of Manchester United once again urged commentators all over Europe to sound the death knell for Italian football and Gattuso to leap to its defence with typical candour. That was Tuesday, mind you, and since Bayern had two away goals under their belt, you could forgive pundits for tentatively penciling in a semi-final between United and the German club.

Milan, however, had not read the script. In the space of four minutes, Italy’s flag-bearers scored twice through Clarence Seedorf and Filippo Inzaghi, the former also providing a sumptuous back-heel through ball for the latter to slot home.
