The Coppa Italia is Bologna’s, Milan defeated 1-0 at the Stadio Olimpico in Rome. A goal by Ndoye early in the second half was decisive. The Rossoneri did not react as a team hungry to win a game and a trophy should. Indecent were the trials of referee Mariani and the VAR room, but in Sergio Conceicao’s group more than a few people need to do some soul-searching. Right now the Diavolo is out of the European cups, will have to win the last two league games and hope.
Milan Futuro, speranza ripescaggio: lo scenario
Good start for Milan, at 4′ immediately chance for Jimenez on a low assist from Leao, unfortunately the former Real Madrid player kicks badly with his left from inside the area: high ball. Bologna reacts after the Rossoneri shock. At 7′ Ferguson’s attempt from distance, ball high. A minute later Miranda’s insidious free-kick, Castro (possibly offside) pokes it in with his header, fantastic Maignan in clearing, then Fabbian fails to rebound towards the net and puts the ball out.

In 10′ two miracles by Skorupski: cross by Jimenez, almost an own goal by a defender, rebound by the Polish goalkeeper, then Jovic a few steps from the goal fails to score, again Skorupski to prevent Milan’s 1-0. On 18′ dangerous action in the Rossoneri area, but Holm misses the last touch and everything fades. Phase of the match favorable to the Italian team, inaccurate at the decisive moment. Imprecise also for Milan at the moment when it poured forward on counterattacks.
At 38′ cautioned Tomori for a clear foul on Ndoye. Four minutes later Holm soars a header off a corner, Maignan parries in two times. Mike tried to restart Leao, who was fouled badly by Ferguson: only yellow to the Bologna player, who deserved a red card. In the recovery cautioned Pulisic for protests over a foul whistled against Milan, when it was clear instead the foul intervention was by Ferguson, already cautioned and to be sent off. Absurd, referee Mariani not up to this Coppa Italia final. Milan-Bologna ends 0-0 in the first half.
At the beginning of the second half Leao sows panic in the red-blue area, on his low cross Lucumì deflects into the corner preventing the ball from coming conveniently to Jovic. In 50′ Holm tries a left-handed conclusion from outside the box, ball wide to Maignan’s left. At 53′ MILAN-BOLOGNA 0-1: NDOYE. The Swiss frees himself to shoot inside the area and unloads a powerful right-footer on which Maignan can do nothing. At 57′ Fabbian is cautioned for a foul on Jimenez.
