EPL: Chelsea fans will love what happened at Gatwick Airport ahead of AC Milan Champions League
Thank you for reading this post, don't forget to subscribe!News about Chelsea: Before a crucial Champions League match against the Italian champions, Blues supporters voice their opinions at San Siro.
The Chelsea social media team is aware of the procedure. The Blues haven’t played in San Siro since 2010, but they did so in 1999 for a match against AC Milan.
Even the younger supporters will remember the match because it was the setting for one of the team’s most memorable goals and, looking back, one of the most popular chants. With less than 15 minutes remaining, Dennis Wise was let through on goal and scored with a superb strike, sending Chelsea fans into a frenzy about which they haven’t stopped raving.
The world is now being reminded of Wise’s finish once more on the day of a significant test and a fantastic away occasion in Europe, whether it be from the away end at Turf Moor or, more appropriately, from the Shed End during a Champions League game. Blues fans always sing about that moment.
Before the game, supporters travelled to Italy in an effort to make the most of one of the better away days this season. While there, they visited the Milan Cathedral and drank as much Peroni or Birra Moretti as they could.
They are also leaving behind reminders of the past for their guests along the route. Wises’ name has also been sung numerous times in addition to being observed chanting about Mateo Kovacic, who is returning to his previous stadium after having played for Inter Milan between 2013 and 2015.
In addition to Chelsea’s “You know the phrases!” annotated video of the Wise goal, With the lines, “Oh Dennis Wise, he scored a ******* fantastic goal, in San Siro, with 10 minutes to go,” Chelsea supporters are expressing their emotions.
Additionally, travellers on a certain trip from Gatwick Airport to Milan will have received a pleasant surprise. The announcement system read: “With myself being a great Chelsea fan I’d want to say ‘up the Chels'” as passengers were escorted to their boarding gate.
The mood going into the crucial match is much better than it was a few weeks ago when the club had just one point from two group games and was facing group stage elimination after defeating the Italians 3-0 at Stamford Bridge last week and following that win with a resounding victory over Wolves three days later.
Graham Potter’s team is under less pressure to win at San Siro now that Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, Reece James, and Wesley Fofana have scored goals. San Siro has been a fortress for Stefano Pioli’s team. Chelsea will have the advantage over their opponents because of the home win, which gives them a better head-to-head record going into the game. If the Blues can pick up a point from tonight’s away encounter, they will be able to do so. If that were the case, Milan would have to surpass Chelsea’s point total because head-to-head results in European group stages are more important than goal differential.
Chelsea will be in a good position if they can draw on the abilities and memories of Wise from San Siro.
