While football aesthetes are reading their Rimbaud and dusting off goblets of Courvoisier in anticipation of Arsenal and Barcelona tonight, Spurs and Milan at the San Siro last evening provided proof of just how entertaining a spectacle football can be at its most brutal. It wasn't just the violent antics of Gattuso, who rampaged through the match like a spurned Ronnie from the Jersey Shore (with Crouch as a turncoat Sammi), although they were quite entertaining.

Milan played with a sort of hyperactive 'roid rage, made uglier by the sodden pitch and Spurs' insistence on hoofing high balls towards towards popsicle stick man Crouch. In the end, as Flamini's ankle breaking tackle on Corluka showed, they simply broke down.

And Milan nearly did enough to scape a goal but in the end, Spurs had just enough class to score on the counter-attack and hold out.
