And I feel bad for Kessie for missing that penalty, he deserved to score. Game after game he puts in MOTM performances.

I think the most impressive thing about the game was how we didn?t crumble after the miss. I was shattered and thought for sure it was the turning point as usual.

Rebic has not been especially prolific, but he scores really crucial goals and they're always out of this world.

Roma, Genoa, today...

That's exactly who he is. You cannot count on those performances and goals regularly with him, he's great in isolated big moments because he runs on emotion. He's at his best off the bench to inject energy and score crucial goals.

He would score much more as an SS besides a more dynamic striker, like a young Ibra.

Yes.

He's erratic but I really like the player, especially his personality.

What a fucking performance

I can't remember the last time I celebrated a goal with as much passion as I did Rebic's

Such a pivotal win and dominating performance

Almost out of the gutter boys

I was very angry at Pioli when I saw he didn't start Rebic. I mean go check the stats, he's our best big game player by far. Since he arrived at Milan he scored against Inter (1x), Roma (2x), Juve (3x) and Lazio (2x) amongst the biggest rivals in the league. Last victim remaining is Atalanta.

He's not the most prolific scorer but we don't have no other player with a similar ability to regularly show up against the big teams. Not even Ibra.

Damn I'm still so in shock you should have seen me how I screamed the living shit out of my lungs after Rebics screamer of a goal

First he missed the pen, 5 minutes after Zlatan forced to leave the pitch. I was sure this was the turning point for Juve.

US not crumbling but react even stronger is proof of how much this team has already learned and matured in the past 12 months. Pioli is creating something magic right here.

That's impressive

Because I was ready to ship him out for Emerson or Aurier :lol:

Been a different animal since Pioli took over, borderline world class

Our defence with Calabria Donna Kjaer Tomori and hernandez could well be the best back 5 in Europe next season which is really cool. What makes it cool and sort of reminds me about our past is that when we were great the thing we had over other teams was great defenders. Roma demriel swap would be kool this summer. I am high on him.

Incredible result. Great match. They didn't get a chance.

We've got them with the H2H now, and if we win mid-week and next weekend and then they drop points to Inter, we'd have CL sewn up.

Interestingly, if Milan finish level on points with two or more of Napoli, Atalanta, Juventus, Lazio, and providing we don't beat Atalanta in the final match, we'd actually come off worst of them all - even with us having a superior singular H2H with Juventus and Napoli.

Currently, likeliest scenario to me is that Atalanta, Milan and Napoli will get CL, and placement will depend on our final match of the season.

Would not surprise me to see Juventus finish 6th.

Lets say worst case.. Torino draw
Cagliari win
Atalanta lose.

Juventus draw against Inter

Its still CL

Nazio still have a game in hand and if they win out they go to the Champions League. Thats 12 points so if we get only 4 points they will overtake us

6 points might do it but we ideally need 7.

Lets beat Torino and Cagliari first

Cut it a fraction of a second more so the next screen doesn't flash. It's only a frame or 2 and that's a good reaction gif for further future forum use

yes and maybe slow it way way down :thumbsup:

they were great indeed.. poor salad got the yellow due to an incredible chiesa dive (great actor btw), but the decisions during rest of the match were spot on!

His miss can be attributed a bit to the clever fake by Szczęsny.
Watch this in slow mo from 2:19

Szczęsny moves his weight towards his right. kessie's technique is to adjust his shot based on gk's move. but it turns out to be a fake from the gk and hence the penalty save.
