San Siro, between the 'sold out' and the threats to Donnarumma

Full stadiums “to the flag” are not yet legally possible in Italy, but this Wednesday Spain will play in a San Siro full of illusion. The Italian Football Federation announced yesterday that for the Nations League semi-final, the expected poster of everything sold was hung. 50% of the Meazza capacity allowed the sale of 37,000 tickets, and not one remains. La Azzurra had not played in Milan for three years (in November 2018 they drew 0-0 against Portugal), where it will also take place Sunday's final, for which there will be a great atmosphere again. It is not known who will participate in the meeting, but more than 20,000 tickets have already been sold for the event. Very modern tickets, by the way: the only way to buy them was through the UEFA Mobile Ticket application, and they cannot be printed. Without a mobile, it will not be possible to access the stadium.

The very affordable prices that UEFA chose helped a lot. The places in the “first ring” were worth 70 euros, those of the second 30, and those of the third only 10. Italy is experiencing a special year and the fans want to celebrate closely the European champion team, which has been undefeated in 37 games (world record), in the city of Milan he has not lost for 93 years and in the Meazza he never knew defeat. The spoilers, perhaps, could be some tifosi from Milan resent Gigio Donnarumma. The Nazionale goalkeeper returns to what was his home for the first time since his controversial goodbye, and on Monday, at a press conference, he said “to be excited” and hope “that nothing ugly happens”: “I hope there are no whistles, I would be sorry.” The problem is that the vast majority of Rossoneri fans did not forgive him for his departure as a free agent of the team where he grew up, and this Tuesday another sad message arrived on the subject. The ultras of the “Curva Sud” They hung near the hotel of the concentration of Italy a banner against the goalkeeper: “Donnarumma, in Milan you will never be welcome again. Man of shit.” It is not the first time that the ultras threaten the exrossonero. In August, in Milanello, they already remembered him with another banner: “Ungrateful bastard, you suck more than Leonardo. We don't forget the infamous, be careful when you walk through Milan.” The bad reception for ‘Gigio’, one of the leaders of the dressing room, is the only mole of the party that the Azzurri hope to experience in San Siro.
