Win and win again. Milan has no alternative to get back their belief in qualification for the next Champions League. The Rossoneri will be engaged tomorrow against Como, in a match that is certainly not easy, but winning the three points are mandatory to have a slightly different ranking at the end of the twenty-ninth day of Serie A.

Yes because something will have to change with Bologna-Lazio and Fiorentina-Juventus scheduled for Sunday. Today, however, the Rossoneri are in ninth position and it is impossible to really make plans for a comeback. Fourth place, which is worth qualifying for the next Champions League, occupied by the Turin club is eight points away. Too many to believe in, also because between the Bianconeri and the Rossoneri there are four other teams, ready to take advantage.

There is Lazio just one length away, but they have a Europa League they can win. One point further down we find Bologna, which is doing better with Vincenzo Italiano than Thiago Motta. Then, in seventh place, we find Claudio Ranieri’s Roma, which has come out of it all after being eliminated from the EL at the hands of Athletic Bilbao. One point behind Milan is Fiorentina, in crisis, perhaps more so than the Rossoneri, who are aiming to win Europe through the Conference.

Crollo europeo, che guaio per il Milan

Therefore, the climb is more than complicated, almost impossible, and since a few hours the Champions League dream has become even more difficult. Yes, because Milan like many other teams was clinging to fifth place. The hope is that a brilliant path of the Italians in Europe would have given another team a chance to qualify for Champions.

After Roma’s elimination, the goal has become virtually impossible. The Giallorossi’s knockout allowed Spain’s Athletic Bilbao to gain ground in the Uefa ranking and now Italy is 1.7 points behind. A lot when you consider that LaLiga can still count on Real Madrid, Barcelona, Betis and precisely the Basques. Serie A, on the other hand, has only three Inter, Lazio and Fiorentina. Barring resounding collapses, Italy will only be able to qualify through the league with four teams. It will certainly be five for England and almost certainly for Spain
