Milan today truly has a major opportunity to make an important leap in the Champions League race, despite the objectively disappointing results of the last month and a half and despite the fact that, including this match, there are six games left in the season.
The Rossoneri have been helped by Como’s defeat, but also by Roma’s draw and Napoli’s loss: with three points today in Verona, Milan could really put the fifth place at a safe distance and even aim again for second place.
That is what Il Giornale believes, which this morning discusses it in its sports pages and also brings Juventus into the discussion, as they are in a similar situation but with three fewer points. The headline reads:
"Golden opportunity."
Then, regarding Milan, it says: "Now Milan must restart, the first-choice players return."
The subheading states: "Today the ‘Fatal Verona’, they need to rediscover the goals of Leao and Pulisic." Finally, it reports the direct quotes from Max Allegri made yesterday in the press conference: "The Champions League spot can also come on the final day. Rotations? Not in my DNA."
