Of the 5 Champions League matches that have any meaning on Match Day 6,
the "brain trust" in Trailer #6 on the outskirts of Bristol, Connecticut,
USA couldn't have chosen a worse match for live worldwide
distribution on ESPN2 US, TSN Canada,
ESPN Latin America, ESPN Pacific Rim, ESPN India, ESPN South Africa,
Sports-i Japan, Orbit Sports Middle East/Northern Africa,
Sky Sports New Zealand, Sports ESPN Australia, etc.

  AC Milan (Italy) vs Rosenborg (Norway)

Quoting Signor Ricardo Vitale:  "Are you kidding me?"

Let's see:  an ultra-conservative Italian side needing a draw at home to
go through, versus a Norwegian side known for unimaginative, "Route 1"
long ball style of play.  

Folks, this one is guaranteed to be U-G-L-Y.

My prediction:  AC Milan NIL, Rosenborg NIL.

Do you know anything about footy?

Milan might be a defensive team, but with all their superstars i always
enjoy watching them, and their last two matches in champions league have
had enough goals to be satisfied, just look at the gothenburg match.

And when has Rosenborg ever played route 1, long ball style???
If they started now, they might actually win more matches.

mate, before you post anything, do me a favor and check your facts!
