AC Milan midfielder Kevin-Prince Boateng has expressed his delight with his side�s 2-0 Champions League Group H win over BATE Borisov at San Siro on Wednesday.
The Ghana international took a touch from 25 yards out and then hammered in via the underside of the bar for the Milan�s second goal.
The 24-year-old was pleased to silence his critics with an important strike.
�I�m very happy, it was very important for us to win. It was a good game we did our job so everything�s good,� Boateng told the official Uefa website.
�They played in two banks of four, they were playing very tight, so we didn�t have a lot of space
�I tried my luck a couple of times in the first half and in the end I was very happy to score. I�m delighted with the goal, because before the game and last week there were some negative comments made about me and some doubts [suggesting] I�m not focused on football.
�That�s why I went out there today and wanted to prove that I am concentrated on football; so I was delighted to score.�
AC Milan sit joint top in Group H with Barcelona as both have taken seven points from three encounters.
BATE Borisov are bottom of the section, while Viktoria Plzen are in third position.
