The story between the Curva Sud and the owner of club is over. The rest of the stadium is less determined in its demonstrations but, as can be seen from social media, it thinks the same thing.
The Milan fans are ambitious by definition and, on the evening when the greats of the past returned to San Siro, they decided they had lost patience. they lost patience with Cardinale, far away on the day of the celebration, with Ibrahimovic, booed in the pre-match as soon as he appeared on the big screen, with Furlani, with everyone.
THE BANNERS
— After the 0-0 draw with Genoa, two banners appeared outside San Siro, evidently not allowed in before the match. The first: "Milan club: we have waited and supported you endlessly, we have had enough of your mediocrity". The other: "Incompetent managers, club without ambition, you are not up to our history". Very clear. Milan, after all, is eighth...
THE REASONS
- Mediocrity is the word that sums it all up. For its fans, Milan is the club that never spends more than 20 million on a player, does not buy a champion who has been established for (many) years, says no to Conte who offers to choose Fonseca, appreciated by the fans but still the coach of Lille. The club that takes care of the balance sheets - twice in the black - more than the desire to win. On social media at 11 pm there was a photo of a scarf, dedicated to Paolo Maldini. The fans, two and a half years after the last championship, 13 and a half years after the penultimate one, no longer believe it.
THE EVENING
— How strange, the atmosphere at San Siro. The evening began with the celebrations for the 125th anniversary, in a San Siro two-thirds full. Then the stadium filled up, Van Basten and Pippo Inzaghi warmed up the crowd a little and the curve, during the match, cheered as always.
Just a few whistles here and there, isolated, at the end of the first half and during the second. The curve sang for everyone, even for Liberali, but at the final whistle they went wild. In those moments the team, sadly, walked to the center of the field, greeting the Sud from afar.
Cardinale was thousands of kilometers away, Furlani and Ibrahimovic in silence, as always.
