Milan stays home! Tottenham parades!

Peter Crouch's success in the match tour of the San Siro would be enough for Tottenham Hotspur to succeed an  historical performance - elimination of Milan and  qualification in the Champions League quarterfinals. Italians have played Wednesday night with three strikers, Pato, Robinho and Ibrahimovic, in an attempt to recover the deficit from the first round, but the ball did not want to enter in the gate of Gomes, although they can not complain that they hadn't got opportunities.

Like Wenger before the retour with Barcelona, ​​Harry Redknapp joked on a serious tone when he said that his students will play offensive against the leader of the Serie A. The guests  sometimes controlled the dispute, but the Londoners, helped by chance,  maintained the table immaculate , and when  a team of AC Milan's size is unable to score a goal in 180 minutes, there a deserved elimination. Tottenham becomes the first of three English teams that reached the quarterfinals, where they have all chances to qualify and  Chelsea 2-0 with FC Copenhagen in tour or Manchester United 0-0 with Marseille.

Became the first  English coach in League history to lead a Premier League team in an advanced stage of the League, Harry Redknapp believes his students have overcome their condition."It's a fantastic performance for the club. The fact that we could play in Premier League is sensational,and to pass over teams like Inter and AC Milan is incredible. Two years ago nobody believed that we are able to so something and look how much we progressed, "said 64-year-old technician.
In the Milanese camp, disappointment has reached the maximum. ";I'm very sad because we lost the qualification. I think we played well, we created opportunities, but we didn't score and that is our only mistake. We ware the most valuable team  overall, excepting the first half of the tour match. For now we'll focus on winning the title in Serie A " said the coach Massimiliano Allegri. He defended  Zlatan Ibrahimovic which Italian journalists  considered the weakest  player. "He played well, he worked with other players and worked hard on the ground. I do not regret that I relied on Ibrahimovic, but I regret we have not managed to pull more of the return match."

 By the elimination of Milan, Inter remains the only Italian team in European Cups, and will play next week at Munich the return with Bayern after the 0-1 defeat at the limit of the tour.
