Pirlo took the second penalty, which was saved by Dudek., 7:C - Cafu (34), Jaap Stam (32), Alessandro Nesta (29) and Paolo Maldini (36) were Milan’s star-studded defence., 8:B - Smicer came on for Kewell and scored both in normal time and the penalty shootout., 9:D - Baros gave away seven free-kicks, almost twice as many as anyone else on either side., 10:C - Rafa Benítez had decided to bring on Dietmar Hamann for Traoré, but changed his mind when he was told Steve Finnan had a knock and would not be able to last the second half.
