In a thrilling 4-2 victory against AC Milan, Monza head coach, Raffaele Palladino, unveiled the tactical choices that led his team to victory, dedicating the win to the late Silvio Berlusconi, Monza’s patron:
The coach of the Biancorossi club began by saying, “Today was all exciting: it was great to see the boys believing in themselves. We faced a very strong team with huge motivations. I dedicate this victory to our great president Berlusconi.”
“We wanted to set up with four because we knew Milan would come to mark us man to man. I am fortunate to have a group of boys with whom we can use different schemes; even the forwards did a great job in defense. This victory depends a lot on everyone’s phase out of possession.”
Regarding Di Gregorio and Carboni: “Michele took a good blow to the head, he has a cut on his forehead, but at the end of the game, he was very happy, also for Sorrentino who did good things. Valentin is a great talent, he can go far if he continues to work like this: he is on a great path of growth.”
The coach concluded: “Compared to last year, the attitude of opposing teams towards us has changed. We would always like to see beautiful and fluid football, but we don’t always succeed because the teams against us defend deeper. Galliani was excited and happy: we celebrated in the locker room. These guys are doing something historic and extraordinary.”
