The first fifteen minutes of study is, nobody wants to risk but it is clear that the Rossoneri have to choose timing and pace of play, injures suffered Seedorf, who is the first look at the opponent's goal by kicking the ball into the side netting , which gives way to Emanuelson.

The Milan shifts gears and 15 'Nocerino who invents an assist for Boateng, off center in the area, he invents a powerful and precise shot past goalkeeper, hit the goal and setting fire to bags San Siro.

Arsenal are stunned, awed and fearful, with a few ideas and well mixed, played bass rhythms, but possession does not even manage to tickle the granitic Rossoneri defense.

Up front, the Rossoneri are always vigilant, attentive and quick with Robinho Ibrahimovic ride across the board and making the mark, giving and taking blows.

We test Nocerino with a dipping shot that grazes the crossbar, the Arsenal is increasingly hazy, non-existent on the wings right there gets caught in 39 'when Ibrahimovic shoots and on reaching the bottom line, center for Robinho's header found the far corner for the goal of 2-0 which is a faithful reflection of what we saw in the field.

The finish still sees opportunities Boateng red and black with the first, then Antonini that border on the pole to the left of the goalkeeper.

Henry sees the resumption on in place of an intangible Walcott, Arsenal tries to raise his head but to no avail, it is increasingly AC Milan to make the game forward and after a couple of situations where missing the last step, at 54 'Robinho acentra dry and let fly a shot from the edge that does not give a chance to the goalkeeper then turning to the San Siro 3-0.

The arsenal is seen for the first time at 65 'with a great left-footed volley by Van Persie on which Abbiati is overcome by a detour prodigious.

The Milan attack and still fails to score first with Antonini that kick to the side, then Robinho takes on a defender.

Responds again to head Van Persie but is still attentive and responsive Abbiati who instinctively rejects.

At 77 'Ibra him Djorou landslide giving the Rossoneri on penalty kicks the same Swedish striker who scores the 4-0.

In the finale, which also enters Pato has a couple of good chances to round the result further without being able to swell the network.

Vince therefore MIlan playing one of his 'usual' Cup matches, just perfect, flawless and without conceding anything to the opponent, the Rossoneri play tactically impeccable with attention, determination and effectiveness, becoming, as usual, overflowing with lethal and taken when opening the scoring.

Arsenal, like many opponents destroyed this year in San Siro, giving the impression of being not received, not reactive, fearful, no ideas, slow, annihilated by an opponent that has dominated them in all areas of the field.

Yet another lesson of Albion football that is proving to be decisive crisis in the top European competition.

The best: Boateng and Robinho in Milan, Arsenal Van Persie and Rosicky.
