#TBT: SHEVA'S MATCH

If he played, he scored. Andriy Shevchenko's record in matches against Bologna at the Dall'Ara was quite something. Five games played, a goal scored in each. As regards the only two Bologna v AC Milan fixtures he didn't score in, he didn't even take to the pitch. In the five matches he was involved in, the Rossoneri won on four occasions and lost the other.

Sheva began to make his mark in Bologna v AC Milan in January 2000, the game in which Gattuso first scored in Serie A. After Rino got on the scoresheet, Andriy and Bierhoff added to the Rossoneri's tally to temporarily make it 3-0. The match went on to finish 3-2 to the Diavolo. Nine months later, Bologna v AC Milan took place at the start of the 2000/01 season: Andriy cancelled out Bia's opener, but the former Roma man Piacentini scored a late winner for the home side.

When the Rossoneri came up against the Rossoblù in March 2002, a match which saw AC Milan fans in the stands protest by leaving the stadium with Bologna 2-0 up, Sheva was out injured. He would go on to more than make up for it. In January 2003, it finished Bologna 0-2 AC Milan. Second-half goals from Shevchenko and Serginho saw off the challenge posed by Guidolin’s strong side.

In February 2004, Bologna 0-2 AC Milan was played out with the Diavolo flying high at the top of the table: Andriy grabbed the team's first before Jon Dahl Tomasson netted the second in the 89th minute. Seven months later, it was time for another Bologna v AC Milan showdown. It was the Rossoneri's first away fixture of the 2004/05 season, but Shev showed that he wasn't feeling rusty as he dispatched from the penalty spot with 84 minutes on the clock. Kaká then netted after 91 minutes to seal a 2-0 victory.
