News : San Siro semi-final a sell out

April 26, 2007  9:42 pm

AC Milan have announced the return leg of their Champions League semi-final against Manchester United at the San Siro on May 2 has sold out.

A crowd of 67,500 will watch the clash between two of Europe’s top sides with the Rossoneri looking to overturn a 3-2 deficit from the match at Old Trafford on Tuesday to claim a place in the final.

Meanwhile, Milan coach Carlo Ancelotti will rest tough-tackling midfielder Gennaro Gattuso and captain Paolo Maldini for his side’s Serie A meeting with Torino on Saturday with the United match in mind.

Gattuso is struggling with a foot injury while Maldini is doubtful with a knee problem, but both players are expected to be fit in time for the semi-final second leg.

‘I will do everything I can to be available for Wednesday’s encounter,’ said veteran defender Maldini. ‘I believe we have a chance to progress to the final.’
