Inzaghi Double Ends Liverpool Dream in Athens

Pippo Inzaghi struck twice as AC Milan gained revenge for their 2005 Champions League final defeat against Liverpool with victory in Athens.

Inzaghi scored a freak opener in first-half injury time, unwittingly deflecting Andrea Pirlo's free-kick past a wrong-footed Pepe Reina.

Steven Gerrard missed a glorious chance to equalise before Inzaghi slid home a second eight minutes from time. Dirk Kuyt pulled one back with a header with a minute left, but time ran out.

Chelsea striker's Didier Drogba has been presented with the Football Premiership Golden Boot after finishing the season as top scorer with 20 goals. The 29-year-old also received a £21,000 donation to the charity of his choice.

Blackburn striker's Benni McCarthy was second in the race for the league's top scorer with 18, ahead of Manchester United Club's Cristiano Ronaldo on 17.

Drogba is the first Chelsea football player to win the Golden Boot since Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink in 2001.

Arsenal's Thierry Henry has picked up the award for the last three years.

Kaka Scored his 10th Champions League Goal of the Season

AC Milan Club will face Liverpool Football Club in the Champions League final after crushing Manchester United Club at the San Siro.

Milan started the semi-final 3-2 down but were ahead on away goals after just 11 minutes when Clarence Seedorf headed down for Kaka to drill into the corner.

Seedorf capitalised on confusion in the United team defence to fire in a second after half an hour. And substitute Alberto Gilardino broke away to wrap up an easy win as United limped out in disappointing fashion.
