Shevchenko ‘a real team player’

AC MILAN coach Carlo Ancelotti believes there is much more to Andriy Shevchenko than just finding the net after the Ukrainian striker scored his 100th Serie A goal.

Shevchenko’s second goal in Sunday’s 2-1 home win over struggling Siena brought up the magic three-figured number and kept the defending champions six points behind leaders Juventus. “Shevchenko is simply formidable,” said Ancelotti. He’s not just a great finisher, he’s becoming our leader, a real team player.”

Siena coach Gigi Simoni admitted Shevchenko was the difference between the two teams.
