Real Madrid's Kaka: Don't blame Casillas

Kaka defended Real Madrid teammate Iker Casillas after his gaffe allowed Andrea Pirlo to score for AC Milan in last night's stunning 3-2 loss.

Kaka suffered defeat at the hands of his old team, but on Casillas' blunder, he insisted: "Yes it was amazing. Pirlo always has this shot, but the ball of the Champions League has many curves and so I think that Iker did not know very well how the ball was travelling towards him ..."

"In the first half we played very well. I do not like talking about the referee, but I think the tackle by Gianluca Zambrotta on Karim Benzema was a penalty."
