The Bianconeri played four games, conceded zero goals, scored five, and earned maximum points in all but one game.

Even though it has been another disappointing season, ending it with such momentum is crucial for ensuring that next season will not be another wasted one. It gives us hope that we have something to build on. Given that we have won so little silverware lately, what else do we have but hope?

So, let’s look back at the penultimate month of the season, one that gave me as much hope for this team as the month of January did . Hope As much as I hate (footballing) clichés, it was a game of two halves in the first game of the month against Genoa. We were completely dominant in the first half and took a deserved two-goal lead thanks to goals from Gleison Bremer and Weston McKennie.

The first goal came after a bit of head tennis from a corner kick resulted in Bremer blasting the ball into goal after latching onto a flicked header from his fellow defender Lloyd Kelly. The second goal came after a slick counterattack led by the speedy Francisco Conceição, who laid the ball off to McKennie to finish in the far corner. The game completely changed in the second half.
