Even that, apparently, is too much to askYou could not blame Milan fans for enjoying a moment of schadenfreude. Although Milan were nowhere close, supporters could at least look forward to a few days of teasing their neighbours for once. End-of-season defeats there in 1973 and 1990 cost the Rossoneri two Scudetti, prompting journalists to coin the phrase ‘Fatal Verona’. By any measurable standard, Milan outplayed Verona: holding almost 68% of possession and taking 30 shots to their hosts’ six. Inter outplayed Udinese, and were unlucky not to equalise at 2-2 when Milan Skriniar’s header came back off the crossbar.
