AC Milan found out that they will face Feyenoord in the Champions League play-offs this afternoon, and the time of the clash has now been announced by UEFA.
With the loss in Zagreb, Milan waived a position in the top eight – which would have granted the side an automatic place in the final 16 of the Champions League. Instead, they now face a play-off round, something which they could do without, and Feyenoord are awaiting them.
The clash in the mercato will also take place on the pitch, and the Rossoneri will hope that Santiago Gimenez is not in Feyenoord colours, given reports suggest that the is ‘dreaming’ of a move to San Siro.
It is not too long to wait before the first of the games takes place, as the Rossoneri report on their website, with the first leg taking place in the Netherlands on Wednesday, February 12 at 21:00 CET. Following this, the Diavolo will face Verona in Serie A back at San Siro, before welcoming the Dutch outfit to the iconic stadium on Tuesday, February 18 at 18:45 CET.
If Milan overcome Feyenoord, then they will face either Arsenal or Inter in the Round of 16, and this will be confirmed in the draw on Friday, February 21.
Dis could have been avoided but d players let dem self into dis tight congested schedules
I’ll put it into perspective – since 29th December 2024, We have played every 3-4 days WITHOUT FAIL. This could have finally ended after the Empoli match on 9th February 2025, and FINALLY one entire week until the next match.
NOW, We will continue to play every 3-4 days WITHOUT FAIL, until after 23rd February vs Torino. Then our first seven-day break since early December 2024.
This all means, since his arrival at Our Club, Conceicao has had ONLY ONE FULL DAY AT A TIME, ON THE MILANELLO PITCH, TO TRANSMIT & PRACTICE his ideas with the players (the other two days in between matches have been travelling to/from matches, and muscle recovery sessions.
We’ve done this to ourselves now, with the two Feyenoord ties.
Still, Forza Milan. Sempre 🔴⚫️
Not really convinced by dhamiano’s arguments. Inter have played the same number of matches as milan and yet ……. they are clever, smart, play well, win and are hungry.
Milan are heavily penalized by a weak, incompetent, arrogant and inexperienced management (such as ibra who thinks he is god but is worthless in his current role); a very, very lazy leao who only “plays” 10 minutes in every game); some very weak players such as morata, abraham, calabria, okafor, cukiweze, jovic; players whose form has dropped considerably in the last year or so such as tomori and theo; failure to get a good striker who can get 15/20 goals per year; unattractive style of play with hundreds of back and side passes in every match; and an arrogant transfer policy when club wants say €30 million for a player and milan start by offering €10 million. Also does it make sense to get old players such as morata and walker?
Finally our academy players such as zeroli, camarda, bartesaghi, liberali and others are surely not the stars they are made out to be and milan’s production of young stars is one complete flop.
inter has squad depth
