The "Rossoneri" had the advantage throughout the game and already in the 18th minute Pirlo with a heel pass put Kaka into a scoring position, who with a shot into the corner of the goal put his team ahead.
In the 61st minute the Turks managed to restore parity. Anelka burst into the hosts' penalty area and Gattuso laid him on the grass. Alex converted the 11-meter kick accurately - 1:1.
"Milan" was able to snatch three points and the lead in Group E in the final minutes of the match. First Kaka demonstrated excellent dribbling and put his team ahead.
