Gallery: ‘Conceicao cannot falter’, ‘Mercato crossroads’ – Today’s front pages in Italy | OneFootball

AC Milan will make the short trip up to the lake this evening to take on their Lombardy neighbours Como in a Serie A contest they simply must win.

The scene was nicely set for the visit of Cagliari on Saturday: the Supercoppa Italiana trophy was presented before kick-off, and with both Lazio and Juventus dropping points there was a chance to take a step towards the Champions League places.

However, as they so often have this season, Milan stumbled when they couldn’t afford to. The end result was a 1-1 draw, after which Sergio Conceicao was far from impressed.
