Alexandre Pato - The Duck

Alexandre Pato scores a superb goal against Catania. We need to see more of this on Tuesday against Arsenal.

Alexandre Pato drilled home a goal against Catania last night to take the lead. This goal was a speacial one as Pato stated.

“When I celebrated, I was thinking of Ronaldo. It was a good feeling, like last year when I scored in the derby for Internacional,”

Pato was although dissapointed at the end result as it did not give Milan the victory or the 3 points they needed to stay at fourth place.

“However I am not happy because this goal has not brought a victory to Milan.”

The youngster is hoping to be fully fit against Arsenal next Tuesday. Lets hope he scores more goals for Ronnie.

Alexandre Pato will have to step up as Kaka will not be available for tomorrows match against Catania. The star midfielder suffered a knee injury against Palermo and will likely miss the second leg clash against Arsenal.

Milan face a difficult time with both Ronaldo and Kaka injured and Pato below full fitness. This will make it very difficult for Milan to advance into the quarter-finals of the Champions League. Although, they will still make it difficult for Arsenal at the San Siro.

Carlo Ancelotti will hope that the duck will step up. It is a big ask but Milan need Pato to score more then ever before when they meet Arsenal next week.
