PAOLO MALDINI: "A step at a time" MILAN - During the afternoon training of the Rossoneri's team, Paolo Maldini spoke to Milan Channel. "The objective is to think about myself for the time being, a step at a time. The intercontinental cup remain my great objective, then I will think once I'm on the pitch."

POSITIVE RESPONSES 7/30/2007 The first official match of 2007/2008 for the Rossoneri gave positive responses. For Ricky Kaká "It's always nice to score and win in the first game" - THE WORDS OF ODDO, KAKÁ AND BROCCHI - MILAN - As follows are the declarations of Massimo Oddo, Ricardo Kaká, and Cristian Brocchi to Milan Channel's microphones following the first friendly of the season, which saw Milan beat Lecco 4-0: MASSIMO ODDO: It was a good Milan: "Considering that it was the first match, against a team that showed it was well organised, it was not easy but we played a good match, with some good movement, we found some good solutions: a good start." Last year against Lecco it finished 2-0 for the Rossoneri. This time Milan scored four goals... "Let's hope it means we'll win twice as many trophies...". Also from an athletic point of view the team seemed to be doing well: "We reacted well to this start of the preparation, we thought we would be more tired instead we all ran a lot. We are on the right track." RICARDO KAKÁ: Compliments for the goal: "It's always nice to score, it's good to have won this first match of the season: it's important." Two goals last year against Lecco, this year the goals have doubled: "Yes, let's hope the trophies will double as well. Last year I didn't play, this year I was here, I feel very good: it's important to begin the season playing, taking part in all the trainings." Kaká's celebration was more intense than usual for a friendly: "For me there are no friendlies, I try to play every game with the right motivation, I try to do my best always, even if the games is only a friendly." The rhythm seems to be quite good already: "For the first week we are doing well. I have to improve many things still: strength, shots on goal, technique." It's nice to play for Milan: "This is my fifth season: I am very happy." CRISTIAN BROCCHI: "This first test was important. It was important to play it with intensity in order to prepare for our first official match. Against Lecco it was the first of a number of steps we need to make in order to get our first trophy. We are a strong group, we showed it last year, perhaps the most difficult year. We are all still here and with the will to win."
