When coaches left him out of nomination for Saturday´s Youth team match, they didn´t mean it bad. The truth is elsewhere - A-team coaches wanted to see Milan in practice match on Monday! ´Miňo´ took a place aside Ancelotti´s stars. Players of first and reserve team mixed up to create two line-ups. Prestigeous match could begin. ´From A-team players I was in line-up with Matič, Sturridge and Rhys Taylor in the net. On the other side Kalou, Kakuta, Borini or Ashley Cole,´ recalls Miňo how they played in a brother-killing matchup.

And it was Ashley Cole who turned out to be confronted with Slovak supertalent most. Miňo had no regrets with one of planet´s best defenders. ´I played on right wing where I had enough passes from teammates so I had several chances to challenge Ashley. We got into one-on-one quite often. How did I do? Matič told me after the match that if I keep on playing like that, I can only play among the best,´ said Miňo who was stopped after the match by coaches Ancelotti and Wilkins for a word. ´Ashley did have a good test with you,´ was what they told to the young Slovak from Košice who could be - undoubtedly - proud on his performance.
