FIRST GOAL FOR ESSIEN

MILANELLO – Training yesterday started at 15.00 on the central pitch at the Milanello sports centre. The players started with a stretching session and some calisthenics.
The main part of the session saw the players working on possession. The players were involved in a 7-a-side match using two portions of the pitch and three teams with two teams playing while the third took a breather.
After this section the players were divided into 4 teams of five players each and a mini tournament was played.
Essien scored his first Milan goals in training yesterday. Petagna is training apart while Bonera and Zaccardo warmed up apart and then took a full part in the rest of the training session.
Training is scheduled again for 15.00 today.
