The first act of Milan-Bologna bore his signature: after a two-month slump, Santiago Gimenez finally made his mark with his first brace in a Rossoneri shirt.
In the last three league matches, the Mexican striker has recorded three goals and one assist, confirming that something has changed compared to the struggles he faced in recent months.
Now Sergio Conceição will have one more forward to rely on for the Coppa Italia final against Bologna, scheduled for next Wednesday at the Stadio Olimpico. The hierarchy up front may have been shaken up again, with 'El Bebote' now competing for a starting spot with Luka Jovic, who struggled last night due to Bologna's suffocating defensive pressing, as relayed via Milannews.it.
Given this, and the two goals scored, the chances of seeing Santiago Gimenez leading Milan's attack in the Coppa Italia final are increasing. However, in the post-match interview at San Siro, Conceição didn’t reveal much:
"Santi? I won't tell you if he's going to play."
