Today is the day Milan has been waiting for 11 years

Today is the big day Milan fans have been waiting for since 2011. Leaders with two points more than Inter, the ‘rossoneri’ only need to draw on their visit to Sassuolo to win their first ‘scudetto’ in eleven years and 19th in his story.

Champion Inter will have to win at home against Sampdoria and wait for Milan’s defeat to defend the title as the latter have won on a particular ‘goal average’ (1-1 and 1-2), the standard being considered in the ‘calcium’ in case the points in the last table are equal.

Seven-time European champions, Milan have the unique opportunity to end one of the worst seasons in their glorious history, they have gone 15 consecutive games without losing, but they do not trust a Sassuolo with nothing at stake. “We are the best so far, but we should also be the best tomorrow”, Rossoneri coach Stefano Pioli said yesterday. “No matter what you did until yesterday, we have a good chance. We built it and we deserve it, but we must make it a reality.

Pioli has no trust in Sassuolo

Pîoli, who only dismissed Simon Kjaer although blindfolded Zlatan Ibrahimovic will remain on the bench for another game, warned that “Sassuolo is the team with the highest quality in the offensive sector. If you make a mistake. In the beginning, they have a way of surprising you. “

Of the other Milan team, Inter, Simone Inzaghi, who replaced Antonio Conte a year ago, tried to remove the drama today. “Whatever happens, it’s been a very good season, even beyond expectations.” The ‘nerazzurri’ have won the Supercoppa, Coppa and reached the last 16 of the Champions League, but they regretted the serious mistake of substitute goalkeeper Ionut Radu that cost them their only defeat in the last 12 days, in the pending match in April 27 in Bologna (2-1) and possibly the title.
