Seedorf sends Milan into Club World Cup final

Without shine, the Italians ousted Japan's Urawa Red Diamonds 1-0 to seal a place in Sunday's final of the FIFA Club World Cup against Boca Juniors. 13-12 | 09:45 hs. As it was expected, Italy's AC Milan and Argentina's Boca Juniors, the two most important competitors, will contest the final match of the Club World Cup.

Milan managed to beat a willing Urawa in a match in which Kaka set the prologue to the role he went to Japan to play: win the FIFA World Player. The Brazilian played faster than his teammates but he seemed to be making no effort at all.

Milan needed only 67 minutes to score the winner as a result of a Kaka-Seedorf partnership, which works alone.

The best team from Asia still have a lot to improve to face the best European teams. In fact, when they were really confident, the Rossoneri netted.

The match failed to get rhythm, but once it began, it follow the logic. The Italians had many opportunites: a fault from Pirlo, a play of Kaka that Seedorf shot emotionless, a header from Ambrosini, a beautiful volley from Seedorf…

But then happened what Kaka wanted to: he combined with Seedorf, who smashed in the game's only goal. The result fell short compared to Milan's opportunities.

The Italians came to Japan to win the Club World Cup and that was shown at the Yokohama stadium. This way, Boca Juniors will have to perform better than against Etoile Sportive du Sahel if they want to claim the tournament as in 2003.
