According to the Corriere della Sera newspaper: “The man was a Liverpool fan from Ireland, and he had in his pocket a ticket for the Champions League match between Milan and the Reds at the San Siro.”
The report said he crossed the highway trying to get to the hotel where he was supposed to stay.
The official website of the Champions League revealed the expected lineup for the Milan vs. Liverpool match, which included the Pharaoh Mohamed Salah at the top of the lineup of Dutch coach Arne Slot.
Milan’s expected lineup is as follows:
“Mignan; Calabria, Pavlovic, Tomori, Te Hernandez; Fofana, Loftus-Cheek; Chukwueze, Pulisic, Rafael Leao; Morata.”
While Liverpool’s formation was as follows:
“Alisson Becker, Alexander-Arnold, Konate, Van Dijk, Robertson; Mac Allister, Gravenburg; Salah, Soboszlai, Luis Diaz, Diogo Jota.”
The Champions League system has changed, with 36 teams participating. They will be divided into 4 categories, and two teams from each category will play together in a home-and-away system. The teams in positions 1 to 8 will qualify directly to the second round, while the teams in positions 9 to 24 will play a home-and-away play-off to determine the 8 teams that will participate in the second round, in addition to the eight qualifiers.
Milan vs Liverpool
Liverpool enters the match with high spirits and aims to reconcile with its fans, after the recent defeat in the English Premier League at the hands of Nottingham Forest 1-0 and losing the competition for the top spot with Manchester City.
Liverpool, led by Dutch coach Arne Slot and star player Mohamed Salah, aspire to return to the podium with the most expensive European title after the team last achieved it in the 2018-2019 season.
On the other hand, Milan is suffering this season, but it seeks to arm itself with the home advantage and the fans, to come out with a positive result against the Reds, as it achieved two draws and a loss before achieving its first victory at the hands of Venezia with four clean goals.
The meeting between the two giants always carries a lot of excitement, especially since their history attests to that, as there are 13 championship titles between them, 7 of which go to the Rossoneri, compared to 6 for the Reds.
In the history of the two teams’ confrontations, the two teams have faced each other 4 times, all in the Champions League. Liverpool succeeded in winning 3 times, compared to Milan’s one time, and the Reds scored 12 goals, compared to 10 for the Rossoneri.
The Egyptian star Mohamed Salah is the top scorer in the matches between the two teams, with two goals, tied with Filippo Inzaghi and Hernan Crespo. The Egyptian Pharaoh managed to score another goal against them, but with the Roma shirt in the Italian League.
