OP‑ED: MEXES AND BALOTELLI, WHAT A NIGHT IN SIENA
Community
The first AC Milan away match I went to see was in Siena in 2013. The trip was five hours long and I remember how I was getting always more stressed kilometre after kilometre. The match was fundamental for our qualification in the Champions League, and even if it like an easy enough match, open paper, you must always be careful. Siena scored at the 26th minute of the first half and we were losing 1-0, but we never stopped supporting our team. When hope was running out, something happened: a quick ten-minute one-two by Balotelli and Mexes, in the final 10 minutes of the game. It was such a thrill. Forza Milan!

The goals in the last minutes of the match of Balotelli and Mexes made that night in Siena an unforgettable night. So many emotions at the Franchi, Champions League emotions. Not giving up until the end, despite the difficulties and with the objective clearly in mind, even when it seemed almost impossible to win the match.
