Milan put pressure on Napoli, leader of Serie A, after catching them thanks to their classic victory against Juventus at San Siro (2-0). Both teams played with many casualties, but the ‘rossoneri’ were more effective against a rival who added another disappointment and dropped to eighth place, 7 points from the top, which will be more tomorrow.
Juventus’ staging was better. Despite the absence of the sanctioned Ángel Di María, he came out with personality and provided three arrivals with some danger at the hands of Juan Cuadrado. The Colombian and Danilo each attempted cross shots that went slightly wide, while Arkadiusz Milik failed to surprise Ciprian Tatarusanu with a centered shot.
After this first reach, Milan started to take the ball away from Juve and gradually came closer to Wojciech Szczesny’s goal. Once again Rafael Leao is the main offensive argument for Stefano Pioli’s team. The Portuguese shot three times and in two of them the post prevented him from scoring.
Two of the Leo Poles
After a corner was headed in by Pierre Kalulu, Leao grabbed the spur at the near post and the woodwork saved Szczesny. After half an hour, his excellent low shot from outside the area hit the post.
Milan had more punch than Juve and the first half was unbalanced with a corner kick taken in extra time. Oiivier Giroud, after a defensive rebound, shot at goal that Fikayo Tomori intercepted the ball with a march despite trying to get away, but it fell at his feet and at half time the English central defender turned to shoot Szczesny that Alex Sandro took advantage of his position. by not coming out with his teammates to leave him offside.
Brahim points
After the break, Milan, recovering from the defeat against Chelsea in the Champions League (3-0), dealt another blow to Juve from which they never recovered. Dusan Vlahovic took a chance on a very committed pass that was intercepted by Brahim Díaz before setting off on an unstoppable 40-metre run. First, he desperately avoided Leonardo Bonucci’s tackle and beat Szczesny on his way out (53′).
The Andalusian midfielder, on loan from Real Madrid, took advantage of the opportunity to start as a substitute due to the absences of Alexis Saelemaekers and Junior Messias and rewarded himself with his first goal of the season. He celebrated by taking off his shirt and showing it to the fans while carrying Leao on his shoulder behind the goal.
A dedicated Juve
There was a long game left and the reaction of Juve was expected, but they did it without conviction, offering a disappointing image. At the expense of sporadic play, his only shot on goal was a header from Milik which Tatarusanu saved without problems. Vlahovic, who was overlooked and selected for his mistake at 2-0, was replaced with a quarter of an hour from the end by a Massimiliano Allegri who once again felt the pressure of his continuation on the bench.
