During a pre-match press conference on Monday, Paulo Fonseca promised he’d bring pastel de nata, a traditional Portuguese dessert, to journalists if the Rossoneri beat Liverpool and Inter.
Milan are preparing for crucial games against Liverpool in the Champions League and Inter in Serie A this week.
The first one is against the Reds at San Siro on Tuesday, while the first derby della Madonnina of the campaign is scheduled for September 22.
