After Saturday afternoon’s disappointing draw against Juventus, which effectively and definitively ruled them out of the title race, Milan finds itself in a position where mistakes are no longer an option. Winning tonight in Bratislava against Slovan, led by former player Kucka, is not just a choice but an obligation for Paulo Fonseca’s team.
One might say they are putting everything on the line, even to nurture a goal that seemed unthinkable after the first two matchdays: trying to break into the top eight of the Champions League standings and avoid February’s playoffs.
Milan, victory is a must…
This, however, is a discussion that can only begin if they manage to defeat Slovan Bratislava—a match where Paulo Fonseca is undoubtedly under significant pressure. Regarding tonight’s game, The Corriere dello Sport dedicated this morning’s front page to Milan, with the headline:
“No more mistakes allowed.”
