Debut, goal after almost a year and 3-0 against leader Salernitana: Balotelli’s day ends in the best possible way for SuperMario and his Monza, which closes 2020 clearly surpassing the leaders. A performance of force in which, however, the cap is removed from the attacker, at first with the Brianza shirt.

An almost surprise debut 296 days after the last official race (last March 9 in Sassuolo 3-0 Brescia), in which Balotelli immediately left his mark, showing the difference it can make in Serie B.

In fact, 4 ‘was enough to find the first goal after 360 days (last goal on January 5, 2020 in Brescia-Lazio 1-2), with a two-step touch on an assist from Carlos Augusto. An easy goal, but also important on a psychological level to try not to waste the last opportunity given by the Berlusconi-Galliani couple, with the CEO present in the stands.

Then for Balotelli some skirmishes with Belec (former Inter teammate on the triplet), a couple of shots from the grenade defenders, a goal disallowed for offside and a missed goal in the second half: the best is yet to come, considering a way definitely far from the best of timesBut what he showed in the 62 minutes he spent on the pitch seemed encouraging to me, a decidedly positive debut.

At the end of the game, SuperMario posted a story on Instagram (see above) dedicated to his teammate Kevin Prince Boateng, with whom he also shared the experience in Milan: «Times go by, but we don’t! Get down and work, the road is long! Come on Monza “. In the story there are three shots that immortalize the two players together in the time of the Rossoneri and today.
