The French goalkeeper è left the field in tears

Milan lost, badly, to Liverpool. It was a heavy defeat to digest, not least because of the injury suffered by Maignan. The French goalkeeper, early in the second half, had to raise the white flag after a clash of play. He È left the field in tears. His condition will be evaluated from day to day but è it is clear that his presence in Sunday night’s Derby seems at risk.

Should he be unavailable for the challenge with the Nerazzurri, it would still be the turn of Torriani, the 2005-born goalkeeper who took his place in the Champions League match against Liverpool. A fearless debut, despite his very young age (in the finale he è embraced with Alisson, Liverpool’s goalkeeper).

Until last season, Torriani was the third goalkeeper of the Rossoneri Primavera team. Over the last summer, he played starter in the American tour and now, thanks in part to Sportiello's injury, è the number one alternative to Maignan.

At this point, it cannot è be ruled out that, after his absolute debut in the Champions League, he could also play as a starter in the Derby scheduled for Sunday night. At Milan since he was eight years old, Torriani is experiencing a truly magical moment that clashes with the black period that the team coached by Fonseca is going through.
