He was classified beforehand, but to be first of the group he Milan he needed yesterday to win on his visit to Prague and that Lille Skate in Glasgow before Celtic. And that's what happened. The French team, who had not lost so far Europa League, fell 3-2, and the Milan from Pioli, although plagued with substitutes, he beat the Sparta Prague with a lonely so much of Hauge.
The goal that he gives to the Milan Favorable conditions for next Monday's draw arrived on the 23rd of the match, when the aforementioned Hauge starred in a great individual play before finding the net. It seemed then that the thing would be to sew and sing for him Milan before a Sparta Prague eliminated beforehand, but in the end the triumph was more complicated than expected.
Although the Czech team was outnumbered in 77 'due to the expulsion of Plechaty, already in the added time Krejci had a very clear scoring chance that, if it had not been thwarted by Tatarusanu, I would have assumed that the Milan passed as second in group and not as first.
In the end, 0-1 and a jackpot for a Milan in which Pioli managed the fatigue of a staff that is showing great determination to reach high levels this year. Who knows? Maybe Ibrahimovic and company manage to win this Europa League.
