Congratulations to Atalanta who managed to qualify for the semifinals of the Coppa Italia after beating Milan with a score of 1-2. What was unexpected about this match was that Atalanta managed to win even though they were not the favorites and I am very happy that they did not give up at all. Milan played quite badly because they couldn't take advantage of the advantage of playing at home and were actually pressured by Atalanta's game.
Even though the first half ended with the score tied at 1-1, Atalanta was awarded a penalty in the 51st minute and put Atalanta back in front. The brace from Koopmeiners saved Atalanta and also sealed the victory for Atalanta. In the semifinals of the Coppa Italia, Atalanta will be welcomed by their opponents Fiorentina and this will be another very tense match.
The pressure mounted on Milan's coach suddenly reduced, what's up with that coach? Maybe they're considering the fact he won them the Seria A League Competition?
I won't say it's due to Injuries and fatigue, this particular club needs to buckle up, they need that consistentcy and they don't have nothing near that.
I wonder what would be used to judge his season, could he go ahead to finally win them the Europa League Competition? They're big sides in Europe but has the coach the abilities to do that?
Atalanta who's also struggling won Ac Milan? Like Damn! This is something I never expected happening. ( It's football though, it is what it is finally )
Honestly, I don't know what Stefano Pioli was thinking and maybe this was a pure defeat that they didn't expect. However, it is very difficult to accept defeat when they can win the match, but here Atalanta proves that they also want to win a trophy this season regardless of the competition. Milan certainly hopes to win the Scudetto but it is quite difficult if you look at their current point difference and it depends on whether they can do it or not.
I won't say that Milan is capable of winning the Scudetto because it is clear that the competition will belong to Inter and Juventus completely. Regarding the European League, it is also difficult even though they are a big team, but currently there are only two teams that are much more reliable to become European League champions, namely Liverpool and Leverkusen. Apart from that I think Milan will only attend events they can't win.
