MILAN – Until last Monday against Republic of Ireland, the average for Milan players in the Euro 2012 was two players per match, which already left a notable Rossoneri trace in each Italy match.
However, yesterday the Milan contingent grew to four and one of them, Antonio Nocerino, charged up the Italy support with a Gattuso-like yell after scoring his penalty.
