Milan will host Viktoria Plzen in their second European game of the 2011/12 season on Wednesday, September 28, 2011. The Rossoneri played a fighting draw against Spanish and European Champions, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Barcelona-c38604, in their opening game

competition and believes they can also win the tournament.

the Final and winning the trophy is our objective.”

in the form of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Antonio-Cassano-c6302 and Seedorf is all-praise for the former Sampdoria star for carrying the burden on his shoulders.
The Dutchman believes that Cassano has done a superb http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Job-c18684 in the games played this season thus far and counts him as a very important member of the team. The 35-year-old is delighted with the attitude the striker has shown since
joining the club last season.
“When he came here, the whole squad put itself at his disposal. Antonio is repaying the faith the group had in him. His attitude is excellent. To play at Milan, you need to avoid certain behaviour. He understood that and his performances
on the pitch speak for him.”
The former Ajax star, who has won the competition with three different teams, is expected to start in the trequartista role once again.
