  • The first half saw both sides have numerous attempts to take the lead, however it was Milan who finally broke the deadlock on the stroke of half time. Xabi Alonso fouled Kaka and Andrea Pirlo took a shot at goal. The shot deflected off of Filippo Inzaghi, wrong-footing 'keeper Pepe Reina and putting Milan 1-0 up. Replay footage however showed that the ball struck Inzaghi on the arm, which was missed by the match officials. Milan's first goal shared similarities with their first goal from the 2005 final. In both finals, Milan took the lead via an Andrea Pirlo free kick that was awarded for a foul on playmaker Kaka. In the second half, Liverpool had some chances to draw level however in the 82nd minute, after Liverpool replaced the defensive Javier Mascherano for striker Peter Crouch, Kaka was afforded the space to bear down on the Liverpool goal. He put Inzaghi through on goal who slotted past Reina to put Milan 2-0 up and on their way to the championship. Dirk Kuyt pulled a goal back in the 89th minute with a header from a corner, however replays suggested Kuyt was in an offside position when he scored. Milan however saw the game through and held on to win 2-1.
