AC Milan won the final of the Italian Super Cup played this Monday evening in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia (3-2) against Inter Milan. The Rossoneri came back from a two-goal deficit before scoring in added time.
And one for Sergio Conçeicao! Appointed last December 30 at the head of AC Milan to replace Paulo Fonseca, the newcomer has just won the very first title with his new team during the final of the Italian Super Cup played this Monday evening in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. And what could be better than beating Inter Milan with a goal scored in added time after being down by two goals. Some will say that it’s magic… The fact remains that in a short week, the former Nantes coach achieved the impossible of restoring momentum to the Rossoneri on alternating current since the start of the season itself so much better since the beginning of December. The future will tell us if Sergio Conçeicao will manage to win other trophies with the Lombards but in just two matches of the Super Cup, against Juventus and Inter Milan, he will have succeeded where Paulo Fonseca was expected and where he will have disappointed.
The liberation of Abraham
However, this final of the Italian Super Cup has long leaned towards the Nerazzurri side, despite Calhanoglu’s injury exit at the half-hour mark. Fortunately, Lautaro Martinez gave his coach Simone Inzaghi a smile by opening the mark in added time of the first period. And as if that wasn’t enough, Taremi did it again two minutes after the start of the second act, just to put a second blow behind the heads of their best enemies. However, it is not knowing Sergio Conceicao and his grinta even when the scenario is against him. The Portuguese rebuffed his troops and Théo Hernandez sounded the revolt by finding the small net from a free kick. From then on, Inter Milan began to slow down, back off and scare themselves until finally cracking ten minutes from the end on a cross from Hernandez, taken twice by Pulisic. Stronger at the end of the match, more explosive, AC Milan ended up making their opponent fold a third time with a beautiful point-blank recovery from Abraham thanks to Leao in added time, capsizing all the Rossoneri in the drunkenness.
