We're underway with the second leg of the Coppa Italia semifinal between Juventus and Milan.
A minute of silence is kept to honor those who have passed away during this pandemic.
We're short minutes away from the start of the match.
Both teams step onto the pitch and line up, with a healthy distance, for the Coppa Italia anthem.
Juventus holds the record for playing in the most finals in the Italian domestic Cup with 18.
They're followed by Roma with 17, Inter have 13 and Milan are next with 12 finals played.
In the last 13 games on home soil against Milan in the Coppa Italia, Juventus have achieved six wins, four defeats and three draws.
De Ligt and the rest of his teammates also took some time to get onto the field at Allianz Stadium and feel its grass after the three months of inactivity.
Out of the eight semifinal matches played so far between Juventus and Milan in this competition, the Rossoneri have won only the first of this series back in June 1967.
They have not been able to find a victory in all the following seven with four draws and three defeats to their credit.

The away team has also arrived at tonight's venue.
They've taken a few minutes to step on and get used to the grass of Allianz Stadium.
The Juve squad makes its arrival to their home ground after more than three months of not playing in it.
Will this be a happy return or will Milan have other plans?

If there's a draw, we go straight to the penalty spot.
Last Wednesday, the Italian Football Federation announced that it will make a change to the rules of the tournament.
If the match between Juventus and Milan ends in a draw, the confrontation will not have an extra-time and will be decided directly on penalties.
The idea is so that players do not suffer from exhaustion as the remainder of the 2019-2020 season will be played with very short breaks between games.
What's at stake?
The game tonight will make history as it will be the first of a long series with the special measures due to the Coronavirus pandemic, including no spectators.
Tonight's winner will qualify for Wednesday's final in Rome against the Napoli-Inter winner, scheduled for tomorrow evening.
After 95 days, Italian football is officially back on the field with Juventus and Milan competing for a spot in the Italian Cup final.
This semifinal has an aggregate score of 1-1 after the first 90 minutes at San Siro on 13 February. Rebic's 62nd-minute goal gave Milan the lead, but Cristiano Ronaldo replied from the penalty spot to level the score.
The Juventus vs Milan match will be played at the Juventus Stadium in Turin, Italy. The kick-off is scheduled at 3:00pm ET/ 12:00 pm PT.
