With the Curva Sud on strike and on a war footing, so much so that they left the stadium with 10 minutes left at 3-2, Milan’s performance is too mixed and after a good comeback, he was fooled in the 87th minute by an own goal from Thiaw. It ends 3-3 at San Siro against Genoa by Gilardino.
Milan-Genoa 3-3: the summary of the match
INSIGHTS
Without Maignan and Loftus-Cheek, out due to injury, the Rossoneri’s match starts off uphill. Tomori brings down Vogliacco in the area, the referee Prontera has no doubts and awards a penalty to the Grifoni. Retegui scores from 11 meters and displaces Sportiello. We’re at the 5th minute and everything is already difficult for the Devil. But the reaction is what is expected. Pulisic hits the post with a nice curling shot, then it’s Martinez who takes refuge in the corner following a shot from the American, who tries to hit from distance. A few seconds before the break, the equalizer arrives: a cross from Chukwueze, header from Florenzi.
The full-back returns to score after almost two years, from 8 May 2022 in the 3-1 at the Bentegodi against Verona in full pursuit of the Scudetto.
The start of the second half is a nightmare for Milan. Genoa scores straight away: cross by Vogliacco, Ekuban’s goring, good at stealing Gabbia’s time. And the reaction from the Rossoneri is still fierce. First they equalize through Chukwueze, but the Nigerian is offside and the goal is not validated. The Devil doesn’t give up: Theo Hernandez tries to challenge Martinez, then it’s Giroud who devours the 2-2. The pressing is insistent and the equalizer came with a header from Gabbiawho jumps between Spence and Retegui, following the development of a corner taken by Florenzi. 3′ pass and Giroud puts the Rossoneri ahead, reversing the result. The Curva Sud leaves the stadium. Just in time to avoid looking at the 3-3: Thorsby’s cross that caroms into the area, the ball hits Thiaw’s leg and enters the area. Milan’s last victory dates back to a month ago
