The return of Milan..








Last nights game was a wake up call to anyone who thought the Rosonerri were a one hit wonder, as the came out of the game as 4-0 victors. Okay it was against Chievo, but the way they dominated possession and pressured the opponent's goal was impressive, that's the least you can say!
Milan had over 60% possession and had 5 shots on goal with 4 of them hitting the back of the net, and all goals came in the fist half with Thiago Silva scoring a thunderbolt on the 8th, Zlatam doubled it on the 16th minute while Pato made it 3-0 on the 33rd minute, being in the right place in the right time all he had to do was slot it in, and then he was brought down in the box and on 44 minutes Zlatan converted the penalty to seal the win before half time.
In the second half Milan were still attacking but Chievo were also, The Flying Donkeys knew they had to go for it, but even with Chievo playing harder they had no chance at turning this around. Allegri used this as a chance to give some playing time to Urby and Stephen- what did they have to lose?
All credit goes to Milan with their impressive display but some should be given to Chievo, after all they did stop Milan from scoring even more and limited their defeat to 4.
With Milan just one point behind Juve, this is a time where everything counts and complete concentration must be kept, because Milan will now be running on this high and may be impossible to contain.
