A cross torn by conceitedness, in nice type, with a 4-0 in Salzburg that had the identical ambitions. The 74,000 individuals who crowd San Siro sing. The Rossoneri and the Austrians sing, as a result of in brief, the distinction in degree has been seen and there aren’t any regrets. The lack of AC Milan on Sunday in Turin is already a distant reminiscence: an important evening doesn’t betray, it places on a present and proves Pioli proper once more, who introduces Krunic as an alternative of Diaz and De Ketelaere and collects the fruits one other transfer right

Theo is the captain, in these weeks with out Calabria. And whether it is true that the bracelet implies management duties, it’s higher to offer a sign instantly: first gallop from 3′, toxic left and outdoors pole. The Satan doesn’t know how one can handle, Salzburg has nothing to lose, an open problem is born, wherein alternatives arrive from one aspect and the opposite in a steady jet. It is not a recreation of chess, that is all. So the Meazza will get excited when Leao and Rebic strive one-on-ones on both aspect of the assault, or when Giroud has a purpose with Pavlovic within the final twenty meters, however trembles greater than as soon as, as a result of the Austrians arrive usually within the space. and willingly.. And Tomori is the emergency man, who has to place the patch on when Salzburg manages to search out the forwards Adamu and Okafor a number of meters from the purpose, or reward Kjaergaard’s harmful insertions.

The purpose for the Rossoneri benefit, within the 14th minute, is available in the way in which you least count on it: from a nook, a specialty wherein the Satan offensively doesn’t excel. Nothing easier, nothing extra linear, Tonali’s cross from the flag and Giroud’s successful header previous Gourna-Douath. Olivier’s third heart again on this Champions League, valuable as ever. By a hair they do not make 4 directly, about ten minutes after the primary celebration: in Theo’s shot that causes Kohn’s imperfect rebound, nonetheless, the Frenchman begins offside and the tap-in that sends the ball within the internet is ineffective. The get together is simply postponed. With the three midfielders (Bennacer, Tonali and Krunic) in help of the three forwards, Milan produces play and targets. However one other 36-year-old participant, Tatarusanu, is required to advance at half-time. His first half is a crescendo of progressively much less straightforward interventions: the most effective is a well timed exit on Adamu and a jab to disclaim Sucic’s try, the pawn that Jaissle strikes behind the 2 forwards.

The seals

Milan current themselves within the final 45 minutes of the group with a comforting present, however to erase the concerns of even essentially the most stressed, a brick continues to be wanted. Krunic consolidated it, one other wager received by his coach. And the bench for the Bosnian’s aerial deflection, it goes with out saying, is from Giroud, dominating in each scenario the place the ball is over two meters excessive. True to their traits, Milan don’t cease even at 2-0, quite the opposite. Additionally as a result of there’s somebody, like Leao, who is clearly not happy together with his private booty, on this gala night. Rafa is cursed, and the 3-0 purpose is exactly the daughter of this need to at all times push: minute 57, the Portuguese actually circumnavigates the whole Austrian protection and crosses from the best, Dedic is out of the image as if it have been worse potential and wraps Giroud the present of the shotgun.

The following impediment

—

Salzburg, already out of the sport after Krunic’s purpose, was liquefied at that second. And solely the crossbar prevents Leao from getting on the scoreboard, within the cross with the kiss of his twin Theo. AC Milan’s get together, nonetheless, ends simply because the restoration begins: Messias takes benefit of the minutes in its place and the left foot. Actual Madrid, Bayern, Manchester Metropolis, Porto, Tottenham and Benfica: three monsters and three wonderful groups, within the urn that may draw the Rossoneri’s eighth remaining. But when that is Milan, they may have the ability to reside as much as their superb European previous, no matter who they face.
