He undeservedly loses the Milan a San Siro against theAtletico Madrid by Simeone: 2 a 1 with a rigor (a lot doubt) in full recovery for i mattresses, after the Rossoneri had offered a sumptuous performance, despite an hour played outnumbered.
Che l’urna Champions and also the program that decides the calendars with Milan they enjoyed it was obvious. Obvious when in front of the first after seven years of absence you find the Liverpool, the rival of the last final won, the rival of the last final lost and when in the second you find theAtletico Madrid, the rival of the last game in the main European competition. And it’s remarkable that a to put there is a profoundly different AC Milan in difficulty: younger, less noble, but capable of send in crisis, in ten men, a team that in these seven years has earned the coat of arms on the field, perhaps losing it a little in the last few months.
It is not the best Atletico Madrid, it is true, but that does not reduce the you deserve of a Milan which Pioli gave an interesting game and authority to guys who needed it: Brahim Diaz | e Rafael Leao are a certainty, the way they build the goal of the advantage, in the first half. Excellent the lucidity of Diaz in looking for the free partner in the area, notable coldness of Leao in finding a nice one diagonal that slips on the second pole. Of course: a young team is also what ahead of a goal loses the focus of the midfield, Kessie, for a foul of too much heat which costs him the second yellow and the expulsion already in the first half. Naivety to be filed: even through these races. Yet always with those terrible boys, too in ten against eleven, the Rossoneri are likely to close the first half ahead of two goals When Leao send one overturned amazing on crossbar.
To suffer Milan does it almost as long as it has to, until the end of the game, when, however Griezmann, who if not him, all’85’ find a great goal with a volley that slips behind Maignan.
Not that the Cholo team had before done a lot to deserve the draw, but definitely nothing to deserve a victory that comes with a frankly very doubtful penalty, net of the where, transformed by Suarez in full recovery.
A mockery: certainly weighs inexperience of Pioli’s team, but also, and a lot, bad luck. However, nothing is precluded: the Rossoneri are last in the group but there are four races to play and with a little bit of malice in addition, perhaps with Ibra in front of those terrible guys. the European adventure can take a different turn. However the basics are good: management and coach, unlike in the past, have created a real team, in which Bennacer play as a veteran against important champions, in which Tomori keeps the most dangerous attackers at bay, in which Rebic, Diaz and Leao do from spine in the side for all defenses. It is to be believed, to work hard, but this Milan, after returning to Champions, it can also return to take itself satisfactions in European nights.
