Brocchi's Milan, second act. After last Sunday's victory in Genoa, the Rossoneri coach is looking for confirmation against Carpi, in what will be the postponement (20.45 pm) of this 34th day in weekly format. The challenge at San Siro promises to be insidious and not only because of the team's tactical metamorphosis, which is still subject to major improvements. In fact, there are heavy points at stake both for Milan (the defeat of Fiorentina could even open scenarios for fifth place) and for Carpi (a coup would be worth more than half a save).
Today's race will then be a very important test to test the Brocchi effect: during Mihajlovic's management, in fact, it was above all the so-called "small" teams that took away precious points for the standings, a fact that infuriated Berlusconi almost like the failure use of playmaker.
“Actually, this group has lost many chances against inferior teams – confirmed the Rossoneri coach. – But Milan must have courage and face the match as protagonists, after all it is in their DNA. In these days I've seen the boys loaded and motivated, if they put the same desire on the field as last Sunday I'm sure we'll get some satisfaction out of it".
Everyone at Milan wishes it, aware that the season, even if below expectations, can still give some joy. Above all the final of the Italian Cup, to be prepared however with a series of victories in the league. “Arriving at the match against Juve with a few points on his shoulders would give enthusiasm – admitted Brocchi. – Now, however, it makes no sense to talk about the Bianconeri, we have to think only of Carpi. It's a matter of attitude, you need courage and the will to win”.
This concept repeated several times, testifying to how the coach is working on the head as well as on tactics. Compared to Sunday we will see some changes, confirming that the team from Genoa is liked up to a certain point. In addition to the disqualified Kucka, the prominent absentee will be Bertolacci: the former Genoan, paid 20 million in the summer, was not convinced and should sit on the bench due to a technical choice.
The other big news concerns the trocar: Marassi had been entrusted to Bonaventura, tonight it will be Boateng's turn, with the former Atalantino back in the midfield. The Rossoneri 4-3-1-2 (there's no escaping from there) will thus see Donnarumma in goal, Abate, Alex, Romagnoli and Antonelli in defense, Poli, Montolivo and Bonaventura in midfield, Boateng attacking midfielder behind the Balotelli-Bacca duo.
Castori, back from the convincing victory over Genoa, will respond with the classic 4-4-1-1: Belec in goal, Zaccardo, Romagnoli, Poli and Letizia in the back, Pasciuti, Bianco, Crimi and Di Gaudio in the midfield, Lollo at Mbakogu support.
