Max Allegri was handed a tactical lesson by Stefano Pioli in last night’s game between AC Milan and Juventus at San Siro. Indeed, the experienced manager got to eat up his own words regarding the Rossoneri.
Allegri has been heavily criticised this season as Juventus really have struggled to perform on a high level. Yesterday’s game was another example of that as the Bianconeri didn’t look like a team, disinterested as soon as Milan scored the second goal.
Recently, as he was receiving criticism, Allegri blamed the injury situation and posed the following situation: “Try taking five starters away from Inter or Milan.” Yesterday, he got his answer as to what happens in that scenario: Milan continue to win.
As highlighted by MilanNews, Milan obviously had more than five players missing and that says a lot about their strength. Pioli’s choices with regard to the starting XI were spot on and the Rossoneri easily beat Juventus thanks to the tactical superiority.
Allegri got his answer, in other words, and now he must focus on himself and Juventus rather than the rivals.
