PRIMAVERA, THE RIGHT TIME TO WIN

Archimedes would have said: 'Eureka'. AC Milan's Primavera can now say: 'Finally'. It's not an invention, not even a discovery, but returning to victory for the young Rossoneri has meant something very similar. A feeling they haven't had since the beginning of November (4-0 against Atalanta): eight matches, almost a quarter of the season. Three months of slightly negative performances, because for the most part they were respectable performances but lacking the necessary support of points; except for a few sporadic draws.

A 3-0 of vital importance came in Cesena, clear even if not so easy to achieve. In the first half, Nava's penalty save kept the team afloat, and the straight red for the opposing team opened the way, really downhill in the second half thanks to Stalmach's first Rossoneri goal, El Hilali with the second and Sia to finish things off. Speaking of individuals, captain Coubis was seen in Romagna after a long time.

Pure oxygen. Abate's team has never stopped working, wanting to straighten out their season. To do so, however, they had to pass the ruthless verdict of the pitch, which again smiled on and rewarded them. It was a fundamental crossroads: beating the bottom team resembled the important requirement to move slightly upwards and breathe fresh air. Translated: to leave the relegation zone, at least for a moment.

How the mood changes when you see that side of the coin that gives you relief and confidence, it is like regaining possession of the ball. There is no need to talk about a turning point or look too far ahead, but this is an opportune moment to seriously try to rekindle the fire: on Friday (at 16:00 CET) they face the strong and in-form Fiorentina and, then, next Tuesday it's the Youth League round of 16 in a knock-out game. Both at home.
