The draw in Sunday’s derby was a bitter pill for Milan. De Vrij’s goal came in the dying minutes after Sergio Conceicao’s team had gone ahead through Reijnders. A draw, however, deserved for what was seen in the second half, with the Nerazzurri very dangerous on several occasions. Despite the disappointment of a missed victory, the team’s performance convinced the fans, especially after what happened in Zagreb.
A defeat, that of the Champions League, which blatantly left an aftermath, as Milan’s market has been ignited ever since. The Rossoneri had a crazy day yesterday with the purchase of Joao Felix from Chelsea, while a few hours earlier the arrival of Santiago Gimenez, bought for 35 million from Feyenoord, had been made official. The signing came just before the derby, which he then saw at the San Siro together with Ibrahimovic. Yesterday was the first training session with a view to Milan-Roma in the Coppa Italia. And, by the way, Conceicao is ready to surprise everyone.
Milan-Roma, Conceicao lo schiera subito
According to the first rumors coming from Milanello, the Portuguese coach seems intent on launching Gimenez from the first minute in the Coppa Italia match against Roma scheduled for Wednesday night. The Rossoneri are banking a lot on the path to this trophy and want to bring home the victory after skillfully overcoming Sassuolo in the round of 16.

Conceicao has to deal, as always, with absences and roster problems, which he now hopes to settle in the coming weeks with the returns and especially the physical recovery of some players. But in the meantime, he is called upon to make important lineup choices. Barring any twists and turns, Gimenez will make his debut against Roma and is likely to do so from the first minute. Abraham in the derby did not convince: as always he spends a lot on the team (from one of his recoveries the action for Reijnders’ goal started) but in the goal area he makes too many mistakes.
Gimenez needs to get familiar with Milan, the San Siro and Italy right away, which is why it is useful to deploy him right away and Wednesday is the perfect opportunity. Some fans will surely be reminded of Piatek’s debut in the Rossoneri shirt, just in the Coppa Italia at San Siro: at that time the opponent was Napoli and the Pole scored two goals. The alternation between Gimenez and Morata reminded a lot of the one between Higuain and Piatek, let’s hope for a similar debut with a different continuo.
