Cardinale ‘proud’ and praises Milan for Genoa win: “What champions are made of”

Following the important win against Genoa, AC Milan owner Gerry Cardinale sent a message to the team and also shared a few comments with the media. As you can imagine, the American is happy with the start of the season. 

Stefano Pioli and his men have collected 21/24 points in the league, earning the spot at the top of the table. It’s safe to say that they have recovered from the derby defeat, which looks more like an anomaly at this point than a problem.

Speaking to Gazzetta Dello Sport, as cited by SempreMilan.it, Cardinale shared his thoughts on the start of the season. He also praised the team for their performance against Genoa, a game he watched while at the airport.

“The season is still at the beginning and the boys continue to consolidate themselves as a team. However, I’m proud of the character and determination they showed last night on the pitch. This is what champions are ultimately made of.”

In his message to the team, as stated by the newspaper, Cardinale also complimented Pioli on his four-year anniversary at the club. It remains to be seen if Milan can keep it up after the international break.
