Milan set a record for Champions league tickets

by

AC Milan beat Tottenham Hotspur 1-0 at San Siro in record total ticket attendance 74,320 viewers

What if Milan don’t go for the championship this year as their poor second round so far puts them at -18 behind leaders Napoli? Her fans turned out in force for the “16” phase of the Champions league, with the result that she vindicated them solemnly. With Diaz’s goal in the 7th minute, the Milanese got the victory, putting an end to the poor performances and silencing those who had already written them off from the top club competition.

This of course would not have happened without the tremendous support of her fans. Despite the competitive decline, 74,320 spectators were on their side, a record number for Italian teams in the Champions League. The amount collected by the Italian team from the tickets amounts to 9,133,842 euros. As soon as the match ended, the party in the stands started with wild celebrations among the home team.

Yesterday’s matches proved that the weight of the jersey always counts in this event. So even if things are not going well for Milan in Serie A, they will have their chance in Europe to claim the trophy they have already won 7 times, more than any other team apart from Real Madrid.
