Un super Milinkovic nella sfida contro il Milan: non solo il rigore parato, anche tanti salvataggi fondamentali per la vittoria finale
This makes it even better: an unexpected victory, which came almost by chance but was strongly desired by Torino, as declared by Cairo at the end of the match. Milan put its own spin on it with the initial own goal, but then Vanoli’s team managed to resist the advances of the opponents, even scoring a goal at the most difficult moment; and of course once again Milinkovic-Savic, the true star of the evening, rose to the top. Lots of saves for the Serbian goalkeeper, who also received the award of MVP of the challenge. And the penalty shot is not even worth talking about anymore: 4th out of 5 saved this season, none like him in the top 5 leagues in Europe.
Il record di Handanovic
With the penalty saved last night by Pulisic, the former SPAL joined a long line of goalkeepers who had managed to intercept 4 penalties in the same Serie A season, including Donnarumma. Now the highest point of the podium is only two lengths away, and it is occupied by Handanovic, who in his Udinese days had reached 6. However, Vanja remains down-to-earth, and even after the match he said, “I am happy with the record of penalties saved, even if I don’t count them. I always believe in the record, but it is also good if Handa keeps it.” He was then answered by the president, who instead said, “I don’t want him to beat it because it would mean having more penalties against him.” A nice repartee, but one that finds a commonplace: the Serbian goalkeeper is increasingly decisive. So many points and victories this season have come through him, who has finally shown that he has grown up and really understood what potential he has. And so we all agree with Vanoli, who said, “He has potential and he is realizing it, even if he has lost some time.”
