Berlusconi at the stadium two years later: “I’ll be back against Pisa” – Sport
When Galliani introduced him to the new players, Silvio Berlusconi knew everything. By Leonardo Mancuso, Salvatore Molina, but not only. Because Monza is always the most popular voice on the president’s agenda. And about Monza, he knows everything. He congratulated the team and was particularly entertained by Andrea Colpani, who just a few weeks ago at Il Giorno had exclusively confessed a background from when he was little: a photo in Silvio Berlusconi’s arms at San Siro, during one of the many matches of Milan seen at the stadium by the Monza midfielder, a Rossoneri fan. Photo that produced in our newspaper. “If I have to name Colpani – declared the president later in the press conference -: I like him as a person and I like how he plays”.
Silvio Berlusconi’s visit to the U-Power Stadium was an almost unexpected visit: a few weeks ago, against Perugia, he had thought of going to the stadium to follow his team. But then he didn’t do anything about it. Today, when he made his entrance to the stadium at 13.50, the players found him in the tunnel almost by surprise. “I’m back at the stadium. Football has always been my passion. With 29 trophies I am honored to be the most successful president in history,” reads Instagram. He had been missing for a year, from February 26, 2021. But that time, against the Cittadella he showed up only at half-time: a speech to the team and then back to the Villa to follow the second half of his from the stands. It ended in a draw. For the last match lived entirely at the stadium, we must return to February 1, 2020: Monza played in Serie C, with already a superior category staff and the highest ambitions, against Lecco. It ended 4-0 also on that occasion. Sign of destiny.
The judgment on the team’s game was inevitable, “I saw too many passes in our home half-field, he must be on the tips”, only the goalkeeper after having specified that “I didn’t suggest the formation”. Then a judgment that knows how to warn you to always do better and even more: «How likely are we to go to Serie A? We also ask ourselves – comments Berlusconi -. It was not a brilliant first part of the championship, but we have strengthened the attack in the transfer market and now we see a strong team in all its departments. We hope to find a straight path towards promotion ». With his partner Marta Fascina and the inevitable Adriano Galliani, his right hand man, did not lack memories of Milan, which today the president defines as «A good team, back to compete to win». Before leaving the stadium with a promise: «Next Saturday, I’ll be there against Pisa». In those parts it is a heartfelt game, for the ranking and for the story. First, however, Stroppa’s team will have to contend with Ternana. And it will be knowing how to fly even without the wings of its president.
