Milan-Monza, Silvio Berlusconi the big absentee

Silvio Berlusconi the great absentee

Adriano Galliani went to the Meazza Stadium with his Monza team to take on Milan. Silvio Berlusconi, however, was not there. The two after winning everything there was to win with the ‘Diavolo’ laid a very solid foundation in Brianza, leading the biancorossi to a historic promotion to the top flight. And on Saturday, despite being defeated with a heavy 4-1, Palladino’s eleven made themselves appreciated, showing good game plots and personality in the face of an objectively stronger formation.

The number of trophies Berlusconi and Galliani have lifted in their Rossoneri epic is as many as 29. An impressive number of titles in a history that started back in 1986 and ended in 2017: a history made of 8 Scudetti, 1 Coppa Italia, 7 Italian Super Cups, 5 Champions League, 2 Intercontinental Cups, 5 European Super Cups and a Club World Cup. Then, in 2018, the ‘Condor’, a native of Monza and a former Monza executive, convinced the former Prime Minister to buy the Brianza club.
