On the morning of February 13th, Beijing time, the second round of the Coppa Italia semi-final was played first. Juventus drew 0-0 with AC Milan at home. Another semi-final between Inter Milan and Naples will be held on the morning of February 14th, Beijing time.
This is the first official game for a Serie A team following 94 days. The Coppa Italia restarted before Serie A, and the first game happened to be a duel between Juventus and Milan, two giants with a long history.
The game will be played behind closed doors and medical guidelines will be strictly followed. Players from both sides warmed up in anti-racism T-shirts, and observed a minute’s silence before the game for those who died of the new crown pneumonia.
In this game, Ronaldo started the game. He, Dybala and Douglas Costa formed Juventus’ front trident.
In the opening 10 minutes, Ronaldo received a pass from Matuidi, and his left-footed shot from 22 meters in front of the goal was blocked by Romagnoli. After 3 minutes, there was an accident. Pjanic took a corner kick from the left. Ronaldo unloaded the ball and hit Conte’s right arm. After touching the ball with his left arm, he shot from a small angle and missed the far post. The referee Orsato communicated with VAR, went to the sidelines to watch the replay and then made a penalty kick! However, Ronaldo took the penalty and shot the injury corner, but the ball hit the post and popped out, missing the opportunity to open the scoring. This is also the second time Ronaldo missed a penalty kick following joining Juventus. The last time it dates back to a year and a half ago.
In the 17th minute, AC Milan made a clearance in the backcourt, Rebic raised his leg and kicked Danilo, and Orsato showed a red card! AC Milan can only face one less early. AC Milan did not take the first shot until the 24th minute. Calabria made a cross from the left, and Conte volleyed high 13 meters from the goal.
In the second half, Leon replaced Bonaventura. Juventus is still firmly in control of the situation. Cristiano Ronaldo made many attempts to shoot, but his condition seems to have not returned to the best. Many shots did not pose a threat. Ronaldo, who was eager to make up for the missed penalty, seemed very impatient. AC Milan, with one less player, can only look for opportunities with set kicks, and can hardly threaten Juventus’ goal.
In the end, the two teams scored a goalless draw 0-0. This 0-0 is enough to help Juventus advance to the final. Coach Sarri said following the game: “It’s a good feeling to be back on the field once more following 3 months, but without the fans, the atmosphere of the game must be different. The positive side is that we didn’t let the opponent build up too many effective attacks at all, but it will take a while for us to recover physically and mentally. Ronaldo missed the penalty, he was unlucky today.”
