“The confrontation between the curve and the team in La Spezia? I had already turned off the TV, but I was told it was an episode of encouragement and sympathy that shows the attachment of the curve fans to the team. When things go well everyone is capable, when they go wrong instead… It was a positive thing”. This was stated by AC Milan president Paolo Scaroni, speaking during the “Milan Football Week” organized by the Gazzetta dello Sport. “I don’t only remember yesterday’s matches that went badly. You fall but you get back up. I’m sure Milan will get back up – he continued the day after the defeat against Spezia -. Will Pioli stay? Does he have a contract until 2025 These are technical decisions that I don’t make but a priori I don’t see any problems”.
The face-to-face between AC Milan players and coach Pioli with the Rossoneri fans after yesterday’s defeat against Spezia is – learns Ansa – being examined by the Prosecutor of the Federcalcio. It is necessary to verify – it transpires – whether the speech given by an ultras boss of the Curva Sud was in reality a threat or a simple incitement in view of the return leg of the Champions League semi-final. The FIGC Sports Justice Code, in fact, contains a provision that prohibits the so-called ‘public pillories’ to which players submit to please the most extreme fringes of the various fans.
