AC Milan claimed their eighth Supercoppa Italiana title in stunning fashion, overturning a two-goal deficit to defeat Inter Milan 3-2. Goals from Theo Hernández, Christian Pulisic, and a brace by Tammy Abraham secured a memorable victory, avenging their 2023 final loss to the same rivals.
This victory adds another chapter to Milan's storied history, marking their 53rd major trophy. It also serves as a morale booster for the club, which recently replaced former coach Paulo Fonseca with Sergio Conceição, who achieved this feat just days into his tenure.
Milan’s road to the Supercoppa title included comeback wins over both Juventus and Inter Milan, showcasing their determination and resilience. The Inter clash began ominously, with Lautaro Martínez and Mehdi Taremi giving the Nerazzurri a commanding lead. However, Milan rallied with character and grit.
Theo Hernández’s free-kick ignited the comeback, Christian Pulisic leveled the score, and Tammy Abraham’s stoppage-time goal sealed the victory. This epic performance epitomized the team’s hunger and desire to win under Conceição’s nascent leadership.
Post-match, Zlatan Ibrahimovic, now AC Milan’s senior advisor, delivered a powerful speech in the dressing room.
“We’ve achieved one of our goals. This was the reaction we needed,” Ibrahimovic said. He praised the players and coaching staff, highlighting their remarkable work in a short period. “You sweated for this victory, made sacrifices, and showed hunger. When a team wants to win, it’s hard to stop them.”
The former Milan star also reminded the team of their responsibilities: “This is Milan. We play for trophies. If you want to make history here, you have to win titles. Forza Milan.”
With the Supercoppa now in their hands, Ibrahimovic urged the team to maintain their winning mentality as they return to Serie A action. “Everything depends on you. Bring this mindset back to Italy and earn the points we need to get where we belong,” he said.
