Kaka: 'Barca match an opportunity'

AC Milan midfielder Kaka has declared that tomorrow's daunting Champions League trip to Camp Nou represents a chance for the Rossoneri to breathe life into their stuttering campaign.

Massimiliano Allegri's men have lost five of their opening 11 matches in Serie A, but did earn a 1-1 draw with Barcelona in an encouraging Champions League display two weeks ago.

Kaka has conceded that Milan have failed to earn results of the required standard this season, but is adamant that the players are desperate to change that against Barca tomorrow night.

He told Tiki Taka: "For us it is not easy to face Barcelona for the way that they play. The promise is that we will do everything that we can.

"For us this is a difficult moment, but the match against Barcelona can be an opportunity. We should try to play a good game, as we did in the reverse fixture. We want to leave our current situation with all our might.

"I will not make any promises, but against Barcelona in the first game we showed that we are capable of playing a great game."

Milan are still unbeaten in the Champions League this season, taking five points from their first three matches in Group H, including a victory over Celtic.
