From tomorrow we will officially start thinking about the challenge against Inter, but today is a day of trials for Milan. The day when the Champions League dream was put to an end. By now everyone agrees that the Diavolo will not be able to reach the fourth place, which is useful to participate in the most prestigious European competition.
In the crosshairs of critics have thus ended up the players, but especially Sergio Conceicao. The Portuguese’s adventure is really at the end of the line, and at the end of the season their paths with Milan will officially part. Yesterday Maignan and teammates showed the usual flaws, the usual distractions.
So the Rossoneri went under after very few seconds, with Politano. The double was not long in coming with the usual Romelu Lukaku. In the second half, quality changes and the tiredness of Antonio Conte’s men brought the Diavolo back into the game.

Lighting up was the usual Rafa Leao, who effectively changed the match, proving decisive with his plays on the flank, along with Theo Hernandez. The Frenchman earned the penalty, later missed by Santi Gimenez, and served the assist for the goal of the rediscovered Luka Jovic. But the final assault was not enough.

An onslaught that would at best have resulted in a draw that at that point many Rossoneri fans would not have wanted. A thought this easy to share given that a point certainly would not have changed things from a Champions League perspective, but it would have hurt Napoli in the Scudetto race. And it is known among the Diavolo supporters that when Milan cannot win the tricolor, it is always better for Inter to lose it.
A thought that obviously the Milan players, who tried until the end, did not have at all. Napoli, however, was able to rejoice and today on the club’s official website appeared the best shots of yesterday’s match, but the title of the photo gallery is Napoli-Inter, instead of Napoli-Milan. An error that did not go unnoticed, although it is also true that the fight for the Scudetto is precisely between the Azzurri and the Nerazzurri
