A night like this, the Bologna has been waiting for her for fifty-one long years. And finally, he lived it. The rossoblù have won the third Italian Cup in their history and they rewrote history under the Roman sky. Vincenzo Italiano, who had already lost three finals against Fiorentina (one on this very same pitch of the Olimpico) he cheered like a child, jumping like a cricket among his players and the thirty thousand fans who went crazy with joy. The circle has closed, the mission accomplished. And in the triumph of choirs, hugs and tears, it is Sinisa Mihajlovic's name also resounded, remembered with heartbreaking affection. On the other side, however, the Milan sports drama.
Milan – Bologna 0-1: Ndoye gives the Italian Cup to the rossoblù after 51 years
I the Rossoneri cried on the pitch, protagonists of a bitter epilogue which confirmed the crisis of a season that started badly and is destined to end worse. A season that risks leaving Milan without trophies and without Europe. The Diavolo he made the usual initial outburst (a quarter of an hour of intensity and good intentions), then it went out like a match, without lighting up anymore. Hit by Ndoye's goal at the start of the second half, the Rossoneri did not react. No shots on target, no real opportunity, just nervousness and resignation. From the stands, Zlatan Ibrahimovic shook his head, while from the curve the fans chanted harsh chants against Gerry Cardinale. A black evening, which marked the end of the reign of Sergio Conceiçao before it even really started. Now the reconstruction can begin, but perhaps, at Milanello, too much time has already been wasted.
Milan started with their foot on the accelerator and came close to taking the lead in the 4th minute: Leao put on his usual show on the left and served a golden ball to Jimenez, who however, all alone in front of the goal, incredibly kicked it wide. Bologna responded immediately with personality: Miranda warmed Maignan's gloves with a dangerous free kick, but the Rossoneri goalkeeper said no with a great reflex. Then came the biggest thrill, with Jimenez crossing into the middle and Beukema, in an attempt to clear, risked an own goal: Skorupski parried with an instinctive intervention, but the ball ended up at the feet of Jovic, who hit the Polish goalkeeper with an empty net. After a start at a very high pace, match has slowed down and it was more on a nervous level than on a technical one. Mariani had his work cut out to calm the spirits and protests, but the The first half ended 0-0.
In recovery both teams tried to change gear, but it was the Bologna to strike: Theo stopped Orsolini with a slide, as he was launched towards the goal, but the ball remained there and Ndoye didn't think twice, beating Maignan with a precise right and making the rossoblù sector explode. Conceiçao tried to change everything, inserting Walker, Joao Felix and Gimenez and switching to an ultra-offensive 4-2-4, but the Bologna withstood the shock without trembling. Abraham and Chukwueze also came in for the final push, but despite the siege and six minutes of injury time, Milan never really scared Skorupski.
At the end, Bologna's party exploded: the Coppa Italia is back under the Two Towers after 51 years, and for Vincenzo Italiano the first trophy of his career arrived, as a coach and as a former player. For the rossoblù a night to frame, while the Devil sinks, without any kind of parachute.
“Deserved victory after many disappointments, great performance”
"After some disappointments, maybe it's even deserved, we played a great match, an incredible performance – he exulted Italian -. We responded to Milan's moves, this year's journey is crowned with the cup, these people deserved a prize. Revenge after the lost finals? They were three big disappointments, I didn't think I could show up and get my revenge and instead I managed to do it. The son of sent me a message today Joe barone, the special dedication goes to his entire family, it gave me great pleasure this morning to read a message from them. I dedicate it to these guys but also to Joe's entire family because we were close to raising it with them too. We have made a growing journey, with some initial difficulties but then a great growth from everyone. Today was a great performance, I'm really happy."
Conceiçao: “A big disappointment for everyone, a match that mirrors the season”
“We have to do the congratulations to the opponent because they won, but after the goal there was very little playing – he sighed Conceiçao -. The referee in a couple of situations… But I don't want to say anything else, otherwise they'll say I'm looking for excuses. We won the Super Cup, we got to the end of the Italian Cup. Now let's try to finish this championship with dignity. Me sorry for the fans, it's a disappointment for them and for everyone. We could have done more, but these games are decided by the details. The changes? At the end of the game you have a thousand things in your head, I think I did what I had to do. I prepared it well, even if in hindsight you have some thoughts, it's normal".
