Ancelotti keeps faith with Brazilian trio

AC Milan boss Carlo Ancelotti has vowed to keep faith with his three pronged Brazilian strikeforce for Sunday’s trip to Serie A strugglers Cagliari.

The trio of Kaka, Ronaldinho and Alexandre Pato have been dubbed Ka-Pa-Ro in the Italian press in a reference to the Gre-No-Li partnership of the 1950s, comprised of Swedish forwards Gunnar Gren, Gunnar Nordahl and Nils Liedholm.

Ronaldinho has taken over from Ronaldo, who left Milan in the summer after a series of injury problems limited his appearances with the Rossoneri.

Despite scoring in the midweek UEFA Cup victory over FC Zurich, Ukrainian forward Andrei Shevchenko will be left on the bench as Ancelotti keeps faith with his Brazilian trio who turned in a strong performance in last weeks derby win over Inter.

“After the way they played in the derby it’s right to confirm that they will at least start again on Sunday. Right now they’re the most reliable solution we have,” said Ancelotti.
