Today in Serie A – April 19, 1989: Milan Thrashed Real Madrid in the European Cup
It was not simply a football game gone bad for Real Madrid. When Los Merengues, coached by Leo Beenhakker, left the San Siro on that night of April 19, 1989, football had probably changed forever. Arrigo Sacchi's Milan had just absolutely annihilated them, winning 5-0 and advancing to the European Cup Final 6-1 on aggregate.
