30'

Abbiati makes a very sharp save at his near post as Messi forces his way through the Milan defence and drills a low shot towards the corner of the net!

29'

Messi wins another free kick 25 yards out as he skips past Boateng, who carves him down in crude fashion. This could be very dangerous...

28'

Villa attempts an acrobatic effort which flashes over the bar as the cross comes in from Alves outwide on the right, and that was not a bad attempt!

27'

Allegri is again out on the touchline barking orders at his side as they sit back and defend stoically. He knows his side have grabbed a wonderful opportunity thus far.

26'

Pato continues to cause all sorts of problems for Barca as he floats in the hosts' half, causing havoc with his sharp runs.

25'

Xavi threads a precise ball through to Messi who dinks a delivery up for Villa, but Nesta does well to head back to his keeper under pressure.

24'

Pedro floats outwide on the left to occupy and trouble Abate, but a pass from Iniesta does not find the forward.

23'

Alves is unable to receive a pass from Busquets as he mis-times his run down the right, and Milan have a reprieve.

22'

Messi misses the target with another effort from range, and Boateng is being shouted at for not tracking the Argentine's run from midfield.

21'

Abate is now being targeted by Barca it seems, as wave upon wave of attacks flow from the hosts' left. Allegri appears pretty concerned.

20'

Alves wins a free kick at the expense of Abate, but this time the delivery is poor from Xavi as the ball runs clear.

19'

It's all Barcelona right now as the hosts dominate possession, and Milan are forced back very deep inside their own half.

18'

Messi fires a quite stunning delivery from the resulting set piece, and Abbiati does well to parry the ball wide - what an effort!

17'

Xavi and Iniesta exchange passes in mesmeric fashion before van Bommel trips Messi and the Argentine wins a free kick. Van Bommel is booked.

16'

Allegri bawls out his defenders for not tracking a sharp run from Abidal, and that came from very deep with Messi screaming for the ball.

15'

Alves crudely trips Seedorf, who hits the ground and stands over the free kick. He rolls the ball to Boateng, but Barca block the effort.

14'

Abate streaks down the right before finding Nocerino, but the cross is poor and the ball runs clear for Barcelona to counter.

13'

Messi draws a sprawling save from Abbiati with a low drive from 25 yards having skipped past Boateng, and that's a fine run and shot, and a fine save.

12'

Villa hits the side-netting! The Spaniard should really do better as Zambrotta misses his kick at the back post from Xavi's corner, and he has a free volley at goal from a tight angle.

11'

Abbiati rolls the ball out to Van Bommel as Milan look to break from deep, but the Dutchman squanders possession to Busquets.

10'

Xavi whips over a corner kick with the ball breaking loose to Iniesta, but the midfielder misses the target with his low strike.
