Supercoppa Italiana, the date is this Friday and the match is Juventus vs Milan in Doha: while all the other teams will be playing the 18th matchday of the Serie A , the bianconeri and the rossoneri will be battling it out for the first trophy of the season. Juventus is looking for revenge after the loss at the San Siro on the 23rd of October, Milan want to demonstrate they are once again a team capable of winning trophies and have no intention to "move aside": It will be a real Supercup final.
"I've been facing Juventus since 1996" - Says Montella in an interview to Tuttosport - "Ive been in the places that really feel the rivalry with Juventus, Rome and Florence for example. Despite my experience I've never signed up for the I-Hate-Juventus party. Hate is also a strong word: they win more than the others, its normal to want to beat them. Moving aside? Buffon was misinterpreted and when you face Juventus, there is always extra stimuli. It would be nice to win, for the team, for Berlusconi, for me. We've already beat Juventus, but it will be very different from facing them in the league. I won't tell you if and howo I will change Milan. Juventus is not only Higuain. Dybala for example is one of the best in the world".
Milan is ready? "I have to thank my predecessors. I will go to Doha to play this final thanks to Mihajlovic and Brocchi as well as the players who were here a year ago. Milan isn't used to finals? Its not true we played the Coppa Italia final last year and in the league we're taking on a lot of matches as if they were finals. The mentality against Roma was the exact same".
