Football, like life, is made up of motivations. Turin has a huge one called Europa, Milan has already put second place in its pocket and has no more. And on the pitch you can see it, you can see it. At the Olimpico Grande Torino the difference is evident, the hunger is completely different. And in fact, Toro gave three to the second in the class, Milan, taking a 3-0 lead with Zapata, Ilic and Rodriguez and then managing Bennacer’s only Rossoneri-tinged goal from a penalty kick. A great performance from the home team: Rodriguez and Zapata above all, but also Pellegri, Buongiorno and the midfield. The performance of Milan was the opposite, in which just Pulisic and a few others were saved; especially the central defenders are subpar to say the least.
Coaches with suitcases
The match in Turin was also a duel between two coaches who will leave their team at the end of the season. Ivan Juric he actually makes it official to the microphones of DAZN: “I’m not sick of ambition, I like challenges, fun, feelings, love. Even if you fight for salvation, but find the right feelings, it’s still beautiful. I live it more on feelings than on ambition. In these three years we have done wonderful things, we have inherited a disastrous situation and I have enjoyed every moment, every relationship. I am not one of those who gets bored if he fights for salvation, I want feelings, love, to do my best , teamwork. These are my priorities as a coach.” Stefano Piolihowever, has not yet announced it, not even Milan have done so, and expressed himself on the situation as follows in the press conference: “I don’t know if it will be my last match at San Siro… I have always spoken about the end of the season with the club. It’s the last one of the championship, we will say goodbye to two great players and it will be exciting.
