The two consecutive defeats, between the league and the Italian Cup, had generated just a bit of anxiety, but Milan responded well against Mihajlovic's Bologna. Even the big clubs win in this way: suffering and sweating, taking risks and sacrificing themselves.
Ibrahimovic and his teammates are holding onto the first place, which they have held continuously and deservedly for a long time. The victory against Bologna was a test that was passed by the Rossoneri. The fact of having held up after the former Poli's goal, resisting the attacks in the end of the game from Mihajlovic's Rossoblù, is proof of the growth of this group, led by a coach who is well-prepared. In short, it was the victory of character, highlights the newspaper of Corriere della Sera. Without the charisma shown by the Rossoneri players in the last quarter of an hour, the team would not have withstood the pressure.
Milan, therefore, have restarted well. They did is a mature team. The team now looks forward to the game against Crotone and Spezia, before the derby on 21 February, which will be played between the two Europa League matches against Red Star. We are at a key moment of the season for Milan.
