Lazio winner - marusic and acerbi absolute fuck ups in the 90th min

Fiorintina winner - fiorintina keeper fucking passed it to Leao.

Sassuolo - all three goals were gifted. Every single goal today Sassuolo lost possession basically in their own box, trying to dribble past players rather than get rid of the ball.

There's no doubt there was luck involved. You need luck to win titles, and they got it.
Forgot the verona equalizer just before ht. Also gifted to them by capriari giving away the ball.

They were solid and clutch. Not lucky. Jeez, I get it, losing the title to them sucks, but let's not act as if we had the title stolen from us. Now, indeed, I hope suning does realise we're not above the league and doesn't sell key players once again.
Never said it was stolen. Said they got the rub of the green which they did in the run in.
Compare the goals they were gifted by lazio,fiorentina and verona.

Their game plan consisted of sitting deep and hoping leao does something. Having the best keeper in the league meant they hardly conceded which allowed this dinosaur tactic to work.

Even with the best keeper they barely allowed shots on goal. They really became a force when they figured out they didn’t need an AM and started playing Krunic. With Leao the goal is always coming eventually so just stack the midfield and let your quick defenders mop up whatever is left. Its actually a really solid strategy for league play, will not do as well in Europe.

Wanted to fuckin' strangle that guy after that. Talk about zero situational awareness to speak of. 45 minutes is a long time anyway so Milan could've turned it around no matter what but to get back equal on the verge of halftime on a gift sure helps a lot.

Eh, yeah they were lucky vs. Fiorentina but that's about it from these games. Lazio game
- Milan dominated the entrie second half, created plenty of chances. Usually when that happens, mistakes will likely happen, and are part of the game. That's not luck.

Sassoulo game - once again Milan dominated, this time a side that was full in vacataion mode. You can maybe call a 1 goal diff win "Lucky" (Like Fiore game) not a 3-0 match.

Anyway, at the end of the day, they won their clutch games deservedly. We failed. Failed because we sucked vs. Bologna, not because we were "Unlucky".

Everybody should just imagine how Juve fans and players feel at the moment and get instant smile in the face :)

Juve fans probably celebrated more than Milan fans last night.

Tbh, yesterday was almost like 05.05.2002 for me.

With Lukaku the goal is always coming eventually so just stack the midfield and let your three defenders mop up whatever is left. Its actually a really solid strategy for league play, will not do as well in Europe.
Yeah, it was awfully familiar of our run-in last year. Ours felt less lucky because we used to always break through thanks to a clutch Darmian/Skriniar/Lukaku/Lautaro goal, rather than a complete fuckup from Acerbi/Sassuolo's entire 11, but the basic theory was the same.

And similarly, we were shite in Europe :D

At the start of the season we'd have killed to have a season like this.

It sucks because we were so good at the start of the season and we had a series of games which were so difficult in a small space of time, we were unfortunate to face Atalanta and Sassuolo when they were still actually playing football but it's part of the game.
