Milano, Italy – AC Milan don show dem strong side as dem take beat Bologna 1-0 for Serie A last night. This one na dem second win in a row, all thanks to our oga, Luka Modric, wey finally find the back of net.
Di first half e be like say dem no fit score any goal, but as di second half start, esteem don change. Modric wey dey celebrate im 40th birthday just few days ago, come do magic as he score well-well goal. No be only dat, he self don start di move wey lead to di goal. E be like say age na just a number for am.
Maignan dey try for di first half, but di whole team small small begin shake as Bologna dey pepper dem. Di goalkeeper no get many shots to handle, but him still make one or two vital saves. But as e injure come gree dey pass baton to Terracciano, na there di drama begin.
Tomori and Gabbia too dem try for defense, though dem dey commit small small unnecessary fouls. But as dem carry di game go, dem strong tackles come dey save di day. Saelemaekers no forget say na him get di assist for di Modric goal – sharp guy!
As for our French boy, Fofana, wetin you wan call am? E pick good positions but sometimes him dey do small-small silly fouls. But Modric na di showstopper! E drop pass like say him get two legs for di game – intercept, progressive passes, you no fit fault am.
Rabiot wey come new, bring confidence as him dey jabba dem for midfield. E carry di ball forward, and even fight plenty aerial duels like say na him house. Estupinan try as well, almost get goal when him hit di post. Loftus-Cheek? Abeg, him try but we expect more from am. Di way him dey fumble sometimes geh as e wan score na wah!
E get one kain drama wey happen too, when Gimenez no fit take chances, and Allegri come vex so tey dem send am out. Referee decisions no dey make sense for this game o! As VAR dey try show wetin happen, dem suddenly reverse penalty wey supposed favor Milan. Di whole thing don turn to wahala! Allegri no fit hold im anger; jacket off, he dey use him hand dey gesture like say na dem spoil di game.
At di end, Milan try manage di lead, even as dem sabi say Bologna dey push for equalizer, but di defense na solid brick wall. This match na proof sey Milan dey find their rhythm as dem dey prepare for di next challenge.
So, mark this day – when Modric show sey him no be wetin dem dey call old. Naijarians, we go watch as dem carry this momentum go dem next game. Forza Milan! Dem dey try o!
