Indeed! Who would have thought!
I'm also pissed we let that goal in. This defensive performance deserved a clean sheet. Though all we really did was defend, and I didn't like that. Should have kept the ball longer, but everyone upfront was too careless. All we did was invite Napoli in.
Calabria probably had the best game of his entire Milan career. Tomori and Kjaer completely annulled Osimhen. And Maignan... Magic Mike! I was expecting a bit more from Theo, Brahim and Bennacer to be honest.
But anyway, semi-fucking-finals baby!
My only gripe. Deserved another clean sheet against those bums. So f@cking annoying that we conceded the league to them in January. If the situation was different and we were still close to them at this point in the season, after those 3 back to back to back performances against them, I guarantee you they would sh!t their pants and bottle the league. Alas, we f@cked it up a long time ago. So many wasted points. Even if you discount the black out that was January.
Agreed re Theo, Benna and Brahim. Those are usually our most solid performers in games like this

Amazing! Milan on a different level.
Did not watch the match, woke up to the score and watched the game on replay; knowing the results I noticed Milan?s movements and it was one of caution while sponging with counter attacks. Nonetheless, each game has its own conditions and Pioli came out on top.
With regards to the league, Juventus got back the 15 points and are sitting in 3rd place. Roma in 4th, Milan 5th and inter 6th. Roma will play Milan and inter in the coming weeks and it is in Milan?s hands to keep that 4th spot locked down. If Milan don?t succeed, I?m not sure what the outcome would be for Pioli or Leao.
That said, I?m still in disbelief as to how far this team has come, proud!
The 15 point thing with Juve is ridiculous. Still could get points taken off though. We'll see. It's still technically within our hands to correct this situation. Just win the games against them, Roma and Lazio and no more dropped points against relegation teams. We can do it. But Pioli needs to stop with the stupid rotation.
Start with your best team in every game. This is crunch time! No more f@cking about! We've played our best 11 in much tighter schedules. Just start with your best team and try to close out games like today's early so you can take off players that need resting. It is useless to rotate out the whole 11 and then having to bring on all your important players in the desperate window of a game

The Juve thing is... ridiculous.
That's Italy for you
We'll see, they're still saying they can get deducted points, just not that much.
Once again, all our fault. Should have never allowed things to get to where we are now, sweating our @sses off for CL qualification against the Roman clubs. Makes me sick and brings back terrible banter era feelings.

Lazio lost today, big chance to recover some points!
Finally made up some ground
Roma against Atalanta tomorrow and Juve against Napoli coming up. Let's see if this weekend will be a huge step for us in that regard
Have to make sure to win next week against Roma. That's the key imo
