It may have been the adrenaline of Handel's notes
, adapted from the theme song of the Champions League, but the music of San Siro is a triumphal march, in the return to the dance of the greats of Pioli's Milan.
Which makes him the round of 16 of the Champions League, finding himself a light team on legs and in spirit.
In front of the 74,320 at San Siro, with the record collection ever in Italy of 9.1 million, Pioli lined up Theo Hernandez and Saelemaekers on the side rails, supporting Brahim Diaz as a high winger on Ivan Perisic's wing.
The Croatian, upon entering the pitch, warmly embraces Pioli, his coach at Inter.
It's a derby-style welcome for the former Nerazzurri tactical winger and for Antonio Conte, the one reserved by the South, who doesn't even spare Kulusevski's Juventus past.
On that side, Pioli gives Thiaw his debut in the Champions League, able to dampen his debut with a throw for Theo Hernandez: the Rossoneri captain wins the aerial contrast with another former Juventus member like Romero, enters the area and unloads a first left foot on Forster, very good at opening his hand to say no to Diaz's rebuttal.
But, on the tap-in, of Pioli's number 10, with a header, Tottenham immediately find themselves having to chase after 384 seconds have elapsed. from the knockout stages of the Champions League since the 4-1 win against Atletico Madrid on 11 March 2014: 3.
262 days later, on the San Siro lawn, the last two coaches to win the championship met, but also the fifth forces of the respective championships.
A theoretical balance that the pitch denies in practice, at least for the first 45'.
With Milan having the most vehement flare-ups and with the English choosing the path of constancy and crossings brushed by Son, first for Dier's head, then for Kane's.
The guests' center of gravity gradually rose, with Milan agreeing to defend on the edge of the area.
The only real thrill for the Rossoneri at the end: Kulusevski throws Son into space, right-footed on Tatarusanu and Kane who hits the crossbar in a rebound, before the Rossoneri goalkeeper fumbles and the assistant's late signal of offside.

Jerry Cardinale and Paolo Scaroni, in the stands, just above Andriy Shevchenko, see a Milan that restarts forward at the change of pitch.
Then, as in the first half, Tottenham regained the yards.
The rhythm remains high, for the occasions it is necessary to wait for De Ketelaere to receive Diaz's relay and at the first header, on Guroud's tower who anticipates Skipp, he places outside the mirror shortly after the half hour.
Not even the time to despair that Milan would have a new chance to double: always with the head, but on the other post, with Thiaw crossing outside.
The tiredness of the 22 on the field, in the final, widens the spaces and increases the inaccuracies in the closing, but the result does not change.
So for Milan the triple whistle sounds like a liberation: the 1-0 at Tottenham on Valentine's evening as the first dance,
the new appointment for March 8th.
When will we understand if it will really be time for mimosas for the Rossoneri's European experience.

Champions: Paris Saint-Germain ko at home, joy Bayern
- A goal by the Frenchman, and former player, Coman gives Bayern Munich victory at the Parc des Princes in Paris against PSG, in the first leg of the round of 16 of the Champions League, which reopened its doors today.
The result is a lie and could have taken on different connotations, always rewarding the Germans, who immediately took over command of operations and crushed their opponents in their own half.
Bayern Munich shoot after only 28" through Choupo-Moting, who misses the goal. It's a bad omen for the hosts, who are dominated. Julian Nagelsmann's team doesn't have the merit of turning into chances , or even better goals, the amount of play developed.The first half isn't great and PSG find it hard to wake up, things get worse in the second half, when Coman,
taking advantage of a cross from the newcomer Davies, but above all a sensational mistake by Donnarumma - who lets the ball pass under his body - signs the match goal.
Galtier, coach of the Parisians, throws Mbappé into the fray, who is not at his best, but it is 'his' team that runs the greatest risks: Donnarumma saves.
The omelette, however, was already cooked and served.
In the final there was room for a goal disallowed against Paris and for the expulsion of Pavard for a foul on Messi who, only in the final, became dangerous.
Bayern have half qualification in their pocket, Paris Saint-Germain an Everest to climb.
Otherwise it will face the umpteenth European thud.
