The second round of the Europa League to turn the page.
Milan are looking for redemption after the heavy fall in the derby, second in a row in the league.
The moment is delicate, the most difficult in a year now.
The second leg of the Europa League thus becomes an opportunity to archive, find each other and start over.
"There is a great desire to react. The group is aware of its qualities. We want to start from our convictions - the hope of Stefano Pioli - to show that he can play excellent football and achieve convincing results".
The qualification is the only answer to the criticisms, doubts and controversies of Ibrahimovic's presence at the Sanremo Festival.
The program has been decided, Zlatan will train for three days in Liguria.
A choice that may arouse some perplexity, but Pioli is sure that the Rossoneri champion will be able to manage everything without repercussions on the group: "He will miss a couple of training sessions with the team, but he will be there for all the matches. If there is a player who can endure This kind of pressure is Zlatan himself. In fact I think he gets more motivation to help the team. "
