MN: Milan’s desire to turn the season around with Coppa Italia glory

By Euan Burns -

AC Milan want to win the Coppa Italia to ensure that there is something tangible to show for the 2023/24 campaign and that journey continues tonight against Atalanta.

As highlighted by Milan News, there is an immense desire at the club to win the Coppa Italia this season given the tournament looks very open and it could be a launchpad to better things in the near future for a young team.

It is fair to say that Milan came into this season expecting to be in the thick of the Serie A title race, and whilst that could still end up being the case, they have been cut adrift from Inter and Juventus for the time being.

The league form has improved to a level that almost matches Inter and Juventus, but there is a desire to win a trophy. The Europa League is achievable but will be much more difficult than winning the Coppa Italia.

Milan beat Cagliari in the previous round with ease and now they host Atalanta, a game that is not easy to call. Should the Rossoneri progress to the semi-finals, they will face Fiorentina, a two-legged tie that they will be favourites to win.

In what has been a tough season so far, the Coppa Italia can bring joy to the fans and keep a positive atmosphere around the team.
