El Milan, surpassed by a rival with less quality but more drive, Udinese (3-1), he deepened his pothole, depressed, prey to another defeat that puts his Champions League position in jeopardy that he can lose this weekend if Roma, on the lookout, surpasses him in the table after the ‘derby’ against Lazio.
One point out of nine, three games without winning, summarize the gray journey of Stefano Pioli’s team, quarterfinalist in the Champions League but declined in Serie A. The defeat against Fiorentina and the draw with Salernitana last weekend was joined, this Saturday, by the setback against Dacia Stadium before Andrea Sottil’s box, superior from the beginning.
The Udinese spoiled an unforgettable day for the Swede Zlatan Ibrahimovic who scored the only ‘rossonero’ goal and became the oldest player to score a goal in Serie A at 41 years and 166 days. Ibra scored a penalty, on the second attempt. He executed a shot from eleven meters that the local goalkeeper Marco Silvestri guessed, but the referee Daniele Doveri ordered the maximum penalty to be repeated. Ibrahimovic launched it again, which did not miss. Zlatan, also the oldest player to be captain with Milan, he became the oldest footballer to score in the Italian League after beating Alessandro Costacurta, who at the age of 41 years and 25 days scored in a match that his team, also Milan, lost against Udinese in May 2007.
Pese a ese goal, Milan went into the break at a disadvantage because Andrea Sottil’s team still had time to make the second. It was in a play by the Nigerian Isaac Success that Iyenoma Udogie took advantage of to, first of all, score again. Udinese sealed their second consecutive victory in 1970, in a crazy attempt to balance the balance of their rival. It was scored by the Dutch Kingsley Ehizibue, at an empty goal, after a great cross from Iyenoma Udogie.
