With two to go until Roma-Milan, how do the Rossoneri get to this season-long challenge? We talked about it with the well-known journalist Giancarlo Padovan. Here are his words to MilanNews.it.
Do you think this Milan can overturn the first leg match?
“When they say that this Milan can beat Roma, I don’t agree. Due to a series of factors ranging from physical and athletic condition to attention and concentration. I see a Milan in difficulty, especially since they lost the first match at home It’s true that in European matches everything is relative and a goal can be recovered. But it seems to me that Milan don’t have too much ability or strength to turn the situation around at the moment.”
Even the cabal is not on the side of the Rossoneri. In the history of cup competitions, Milan have suffered more than anything else comebacks and we have to go back to the semi-final against Manchester United in 2007 to see the Rossoneri recover from a defeat in the first leg
“Milan does not have a comeback in its DNA, because historically or at least from the Berlusconi era onwards, it has always been a team that wants to play the game, that wants to entertain, excite and command. If it allows itself to be subverted and fails to be what it he hardly wants to go on the pitch, attack and turn it around. Then, of course, it’s not like this is a fixed pattern and needs to be replicated endlessly.”
