GdS: Why the Curva Sud remained silent for 80 minutes of Club Brugge game | OneFootball

The game between AC Milan and Club Brugge at San Siro last night was mostly played in front of an eerie atmosphere as the Curva Sud again chose to protest.

As La Gazzetta dello Sport (via MilanNews) writes, the Curva have often been the driving force that has spurred the team on to victory with their singing and chanting from the second tier. However, as happened on Saturday night during the match against Udinese, they remained silent until the 80th minute.

During the game it was the 3,500 Club Brugge fans that were heard more, but 10 minutes before the end of the match a roar rose from the Secondo Anello Blu as they finally began singing, hoping to get the team over the line with a 3-1 advantage at that point.

Why were they silent until the final 10 minutes? The paper claims that the Curva Sud Milano protested about the ticket prices for the matches against Napoli and Juventus, which have been causing a stir among the fan base because of how high they have been set.

Meanwhile, the AIMC also protested during last night’s game over what they call ’embarrassing behaviour from the club’ who have – they claim – reduced their ticket allocations for games and are no longer offering them a discounted rate.
