Stefano Pioli's AC Milan team has an important fixture to play tonight at home. It will be a challenge against Borussia Dortmund, valid for matchday 5 of the Champions League group stage, as both parties are seeking the three points to try to advance to the next round of the European competition.
As written by Il Corriere della Sera in this morning's print edition, if the Champions League is a race for gold, and it is, this crossroads is worth twenty million euros.
If the Champions League is a race for gold, and it is, this crossroads is worth twenty million euros:
that's how much Milan would pocket if they secure qualification for the round of 16. UEFA prizes, sponsor incentives, a sold-out additional at the ticket office: a heap of money that would facilitate movements in the crucial January transfer market.
Obviously, cash is very much needed to fix the team in the coming mercato in defence and also attack. Therefore, Stefano Pioli and his team cannot afford to make mistakes tonight. A win is required at all costs.
