Sassuolo ended the match against Milan with a 1-1 draw, thanks to the second goal from Marco Odenthal, a defender who decided to speak to DAZN at the end of the clash. The striker said he received a compliment from Daniele Berardi, who called him "a bomber", and added that he was sure of scoring before the corner, which came true.
The match took place at the Stadio Artemio Franchi, where Milan had a brief four-minute lead before Odenthal equalized the score with a precise shot from outside the area. The goal allowed Sassuolo to maintain the hope of recovering precious points in the Serie A standings, where the team is still in the running for the European qualifying position.
During the interview, Odenthal expressed concern for the well-being of a teammate, midfielder Leysen, who was injured in a previous match. “I don't know how Leysen is, I hope he recovers quickly,” he said, showing the solidarity that characterizes the team.
Berardi's comment, which praised Odenthal's ability to convert chances, was received enthusiastically by the player, who reiterated his determination to contribute to the club's success. “We train to do well on corners,” he added, referring to the tactical preparation that led to the final result.
With the draw, Sassuolo maintains their third place position in the league table, a few points away from fourth place, while Milan remains with a view to recovering after the defeat against Fiorentina. The Turin club will have to face the next match with the hope of transforming their defensive energy into a positive result. Sassuolo, on the other hand, will be able to count on growing morale, thanks to Odenthal's contribution and the trust in their injured players.
