The omelet is made and Milan is only making this season even more disastrous. The Rossoneri ruined their own lives with the resounding defeat against Dinamo Zagreb tonight, and thus the most feared scenario is reality. It was enough to win against the Croatians to go directly to the round of 16 without going through the Play Offs. And it was a real possibility considering the technical level of the opponents and their difficult situation (so much so that a few weeks ago Cannavaro arrived to fix things). Despite this, Milan managed to lose. And it is the manner that makes it all the more absurd.
The Rossoneri played a distressing, hands-in-hair first half. Usual slack, soulless attitude. And Dynamo took advantage of it. The technical, tactical and mental disaster was then compounded by the ingenuity of Yunus Musah, who within minutes got himself sent off with a meaningless double caution. He thus left Milan in ten, which also managed to equalize thanks to Pulisic but then came back down with a goal, written in the stars, by Marko Pjaca (those with good memories know why). Milan in the Play Offs then, but who will they face?
Juventus e Inter sul percorso Champions del Milan
Milan will only know its opponent in the playoff to enter the Champions League round of 16 on Friday with the draw. Today, however, we know what the two possibilities are, and one of them is really sensational: the Rossoneri could face one between Feyenoord and … Juventus.

Even the Bianconeri, in fact, failed to get into the top eight with tonight’s heavy defeat against Benfica by two to zero. And so there is a 50-50 chance that the two Italians will face each other immediately. But this is not the end of the story. By a strange twist of fate, AC Milan, should it clear the Play Off hurdle, could find itself facing either Inter or Arsenal. Yes, there is the risk of another European derby, after the one in the semifinals two seasons ago, already in the round of 16.
In short, a really sensational scenario that could happen in February. Big trouble for Conceicao, and all for failing to beat Dinamo Zagreb with a truly scandalous performance. A disaster that complicates even more a season that is already complicated in itself due to the many and very serious mistakes of management and club. Tonight Milan hit rock bottom and Conceicao is the last of those responsible.
