Conceicao caps remarkable first week with Supercoppa success

Sergio Conceicao celebrated an incredible first week at AC Milan by leading the team to a 3-2 victory over Inter in the Supercoppa Italiana.

Appointed just a week earlier after Paulo Fonseca's sacking, Conceicao guided Milan to a dramatic comeback win, despite being ill. After Milan's 2-1 semi-final victory over Juventus, they faced a tough final, falling 2-0 behind Inter. However, Tammy Abraham's stoppage-time goal completed a thrilling turnaround, with Theo Hernandez and Christian Pulisic also scoring.

Conceicao credited his players for their resilience, saying the team deserved all the praise. Despite an injury from a foul, he celebrated the title with his team, later marking his 13th coaching title with a cigar-smoking ritual. He emphasized that hard work and humility are key for future success.
