00:00Well, they do say that all good things must come to an end.
00:08Footballers at whatever level are not immune to age.
00:12And they all at some stage have to bid farewell to the sport that they loved.
00:17This is not a game where results matter.
00:19It is...
00:20And Koyos!
00:22Goal!
00:24And the game springs instantly to life.
00:30The understanding between those two plays a big part in that
00:35and releasing the run onside proved the key ingredient.
01:00Milan, go ahead.
01:14One goal to the good.
01:18Emerson.
01:20Just brushed off the ball there.
01:22Goyos.
01:27Tries to dink it in.
01:30Goyos really just wasn't quick enough then.
01:34Well, his thinking certainly wasn't.
01:35Didn't make use of what I felt were some very good options.
01:39Silva.
01:44And here's Dzeko.
01:46In with the challenge.
01:49Tries to get it forward quickly.
01:52Goyos.
01:53Great strength.
01:54Too strong for his opponent.
01:58Carlsen.
02:00Okaka.
02:02He'll try from distance.
02:03Oh, that's a fine save.
02:07Well, you can't ask for much more than that.
02:09A difficult moment he simply had to deal with.
02:13And it's Okaka.
02:17Okaka.
02:18Unable to make it happen for all his good intentions.
02:23Goyos.
02:25Okaka!
02:26Oh, just lacked a decent finish.
02:30Okaka put absolutely everything he had into that.
02:34Maybe better look next time.
02:37Pique drives it forward.
02:39And it's Cristiano Ronaldo.
02:43It'll be a throw in.
02:51Goyos.
02:53Thiago Silva cuts it out.
02:56Goyos.
02:59Emerson.
03:01Cristiano Ronaldo.
03:08Well, he acknowledges that he should have come up with something better there.
03:11Look, he's offering an apology to his teammate who's clearly miffed at not being picked out despite making what looked like the right run.
03:21And Goyos!
03:22Well, he should have done better, and he knows it.
03:26Goyos quickly realised that he could have a cop.
03:30Not his best.
03:35Goyos sit forward.
03:39Silver.
03:40Oh, well intercepted, really alert to the danger.
03:49And it's Mahrez.
03:53Allen.
03:54Okaka.
03:54Okaka.
03:58Okaka.
03:59Nicely measured pass.
04:01It's been intercepted, and that will come to nothing.
04:05Okaka needed to come up with a better ball.
04:07The movement was good, but the pass lacked authority, a cause of mild frustration.
04:17And it's Mahrez.
04:21Carlsen did well to step in there.
04:24That was more than necessary.
04:26Can't get the better of his opposite number.
04:30Well played.
04:31He saw that coming.
04:32Goyos.
04:33Goyos!
04:34Oh my word, my word, my word, that is fantastic.
04:39Oh, it really is a finish of the highest order.
04:46Two up now, and they are cruising.
04:48And that is stunning, just too hot to handle.
04:57Is it just me, or did he make that look very, very easy?
04:59That was terrific skill and composure from him.
05:02He finished with such a plump.
05:18Milan, grab a couple of goals without reply.
05:24It's 2-0.
05:25The turning of the screw comes to mind, Peter.
05:28They've got them where they want them.
05:32Cristiano Ronaldo.
05:33They're guilty of lacking inventiveness here.
05:36It's all broken down.
05:38Now it's Dzeko.
05:40And it's Silva.
05:48Alan.
05:48Raspinicueta.
05:52Thiago Silva.
05:54Alan.
05:56Silva.
05:57Inlook with a good steal.
05:59Well played.
06:00Inlook hits that long.
06:05And it's played forward.
06:08Cristiano Ronaldo.
06:10Ronaldo goes on a charge down the left.
06:15Goyos.
06:17Okaka.
06:18He's done very well to get to that.
06:45Okaka really must have felt he had the measure of the keeper then, but how wrong he was.
06:56A spectacular effort.
06:58Worth a try.
06:59Show him about the outcome.
07:02Well it was certainly an acrobatic effort.
07:04I mean it was probably the best option for him, but they're never easy to pull off.
07:08And here's Dzeko gets it back.
07:17And here's Dzeko gets it back.
07:17Forward it goes.
07:18That's a good point.
07:19And it looks.
07:19And here's Dzeko gets it back.
07:19And here's Dzeko gets it back.
07:20And here's Dzeko gets it back.
07:21And here's Dzeko gets it back.
07:22That'll be a throw.
07:22Thiago Silva positions himself well and cuts it out
07:34Silva, David Silva drives it forward
07:38And it's been taken straight back
07:43As Serbi goes looking
07:46Emerson
07:52Silva approaching half-time and still behind
07:58They make something happen now
08:03Okaka has been caught there it's a foul
08:07And no surprise that's a booking
08:11Oh nearly nearly
08:23And it's Cristiano Ronaldo gets wrestled off the ball
08:40The balls come loose and the chase is on
08:51Throwing
08:54Goyos
08:58Inler
09:00He's got options out wide
09:02Gets into some space
09:04Gets away from his opponent
09:14Towering header
09:15He's missed but not by that part
09:30David Silva is there and he can get that clear
09:33Goes for the crowd
09:36Goes for the crowd
09:37And the finish
09:39And he doubles up the chance
09:43Offside
09:45Well obviously some sections of the crowd would disagree
09:48But that was the right decision
09:49Albeit a late one
09:50The moment's uncertainty there
09:52But it is the right call
09:56Goyos
09:58And here's Okaka
10:03Milan
10:04Very keen on the aerial route
10:05Look if you're good at it
10:07And instructed to carry on
10:09Just a keeper to beat
10:11Goes for goal
10:13Oh taken with style
10:16With half time at hand
10:18Perfect timing
10:21That really is quite fabulous
10:23All his own doing
10:25Well none of us were exactly sure
10:26How that was gonna end up then
10:28But I'm delighted to see such a
10:29Happy ending after some
10:31Great lead
10:36Mahrez
10:41Carlsen
10:42Battles to win it back
10:48We've reached half time
10:50Really good half of football
10:51Three goals
10:52And just one separately
10:56It's kind of a hard one to call Peter isn't it
10:58I mean
10:59From what we've seen
11:00So far
11:01Both sides have provided
11:02Ample evidence that
11:03They can add more goals
11:05And I'm sure
11:06Their respective managers
11:07Have reminded them
11:09That the next one
11:10Will be pretty crucial
11:11So it's gonna be interesting
11:12To see
11:13How the teams
11:14Come out for the next period
11:16Well it's still anyone's game
11:17As both sides have shown
11:18They have goals in them
11:19As for the next one
11:20Should it arrive
11:21And
11:23That may have a bigger bearing
11:24That may have a bigger bearing
11:25As to who emerges victorious
11:29Just back from your break
11:30You've missed very little
11:31Of the resumption
11:32Of the second half
11:35Well I'm sure the managers
11:36Talk the talk
11:37And now it's time for these players
11:38To walk the walk
11:39And deliver a rousing response
11:41Oh he's caught in there
11:42It's a free kick
11:45The referee has resisted the temptation
11:47To go to his pocket
11:48It's just a stern lecture
11:59Well that's the first attempt
12:00Peter
12:01We've seen at one of those
12:02Raking passes
12:03Just to spread the play
12:09Who's ball
12:10Who's gonna get there?
12:12Koyos
12:13Koyos
12:16And it's Inla
12:18Okaka
12:22More than happy to take the muscular approach
12:26Alan
12:34Mahrez
12:38Finds himself eased off the ball
12:40And now the break away
12:42And Koyos
12:45Oh shame
12:46That was nicely worked
12:48It's easy to say it
12:49But difficult to stop it
12:50When runs in behind her
12:51Are being made like that
13:04Emerson
13:05And it's Cristiano Ronaldo
13:07And it's Cristiano Ronaldo
13:09Good running with the ball
13:10Good running with the ball
13:11Can they build on it?
13:19Carlson
13:21Done very well to intervene
13:28Good challenge
13:29He just stood firm
13:30And no
13:32That is pretty much the end of that
13:34And it's Mahrez
13:38Looses his balance
13:40And loses the ball
13:42Okaka
13:44Goyos
13:46Now on a hat-trick
13:48Goyos
13:52And here's Okaka
13:57Emerson
13:58Is
14:00Cristiano Ronaldo
14:020
14:040
14:050
14:070
14:080
14:090
14:100
14:110
14:120
14:140
14:150
14:160
14:170
14:180
14:190
14:200
14:210
14:220
14:230
14:240
14:25To defend the aerial route and will do so with numbers. That's a foul simple decision for the referee
14:34Well, the referee has made it pretty clear now that this is his last chance
14:39He just needs to find the control button on his aggression before the ref does it for him Peter and it's a caca
14:48Alan
14:51And here's checko
14:55Tries to get it forward quickly Alan
15:09Alan
15:12Well the crowd clearly like what they just saw some real no-nonsense defending
15:17Oh
15:21Coulson
15:24Missed by a fraction
15:30For a change of personnel
15:32Silver
15:40Emerson
15:44And it's Cristiano Ronaldo
15:46Okaka
15:48Okaka
15:52Played out to the right
15:54Just brushed off the ball there
15:58Ball there
16:06That's for the credit
16:10Tiago Silva
16:14And it's played forward
16:19Alan
16:20Silva
16:22Silva
16:24Tiago Silva
16:26And it's Cristiano Ronaldo
16:29Silva
16:31And it's Cristiano Ronaldo
16:37Emerson
16:38Cristiano Ronaldo
16:39Emerson
16:41Cristiano Ronaldo
16:42Emerson
16:43Cristiano Ronaldo
16:44Keep calm and carry on that's the job in a nutshell now
16:51Keep calm and carry on that's the job in a nutshell now
16:53There's a long ball it's a promising ball
17:00And it's a promising ball
17:03Yes it's there!
17:07And yes it's there!
17:15He's made it 3
17:18Quite a day at the office for him
17:21Well he's been the outstanding player on the pitch
17:23Devastating in front of the goal
17:24What a display
18:56So who's he picking out?
18:58Up to meet it!
19:07Hoist it forward.
19:10Alan.
19:10He's got it and he's got time.
19:23Alan.
19:27Silva.
19:29Márez.
19:31Battles to win it back.
19:34Pelaguri.
19:36And it's Okaka.
19:39He'll have a go.
19:40Oh, good effort.
19:43He got plenty of that.
19:44That's a great effort.
19:46There was very little battle to indicate what was coming.
19:51Thiago Silva.
19:53It's still a possession this, but very little to show for it.
19:59Silva.
20:00More than happy to take the muscular approach.
20:04Chas lifting it over.
20:06Has a hit!
20:07And in again.
20:09And that may well be that.
20:11That is that.
20:12Well, this hurts.
20:14The pain of defeat.
20:15The pain of defeat.
