by the Rossoneri and stated that they need to keep the striker under shackles. The match will be tonight, and the game has picked in importance after the recent happenings of the Serie A.
The former http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Barcelona-c38604 striker has been prolific against the Flying Donkeys, and has an impressive goal to match ratio against them. He has scored five goal in the nine matches
played in Verona.

"Ibrahimovic always seems to score against us. You either man-mark him or do your best to cover all of the space around him."

"Every year Milan have a negative moment due to injuries but their quality always come through," he argued. It will be a battle right until the end and now it is Milan who
will have to take advantage of any slip-ups by Juventus."
