Gazzetta: Cisse hat-trick as ‘Euro Milan’ takes flight

Finally, an 'Alfa' Milan (or rather, an Alphadjo Milan) inspired by the extraordinary Cisse. The teenage sensation is dazzling Europe too, and is beginning to present Milan with a wonderful selection dilemma, writes Gazzetta dello Sport in this morning's print edition.

After scoring twice in the league, the 19-year-old has now struck three times in European competition. All three were classic centre-forward's goals, spectacular in the way the team created them and in his finishing touch: either getting ahead of his defender or finding space completely unmarked, reminiscent of the great penalty-box strikers of the past.
