The perfect robbery took place in Madrid. Sportingly speaking, obviously. In the footsteps of the very successful Spanish series “La casa de papel”, known in Italy as “La casa de papel”, the Rossoneri team managed to emerge unscathed from the “Santiago Bernabeu” in Madrid – the Mint of European football – with the huge loot : great performance, victory and three points.
El Professor
Leading the Rossoneri band was not Sergio Marquina, commonly known as “The Professor”, but Paulo Fonseca, a professional treinador. Different roles, different professions, but the same distinct, elegant, mysterious, at times inscrutable style. Both made the perfect coup: Marquina with a gold mine, Fonseca with three points taken away from Ancelotti thanks to a great performance and a masterful tactical move with the insertion of Musah on the attacking midfielder’s line, but in fact acted as fifth defender.
The band
To succeed in his plan, Fonseca had to rely on ready, strong and capable men. The various Berlin, Tokyo, Rio, Nairobi, etc… In Milan the comparison is simple: Maignan, Morata, Pulisic, Theo, Reijnders, Rafa Leao pulled off a super performance, made up of a lot of commitment, a lot of spirit of sacrifice and Above all, a lot of technique. Now the point is to continue on this path. On the other hand, La Casa de Papel didn’t stop at the first season… Il Fonsecato, as Nairobi would say, has just begun.
