The Milan club secured its first home victory of the new Serie A season on August 28, 2026, defeating Venezia 2-0 at San Siro. Following a first half filled with missed opportunities, manager Ruben Amorim’s side broke through in the second stanza through a left-footed diagonal strike from Gonçalo Ramos, according to match reports.
Gonçalo Ramos Opens Account at San Siro
After squandering several early chances during a scoreless opening 45 minutes, Portuguese forward Gonçalo Ramos found his rhythm after the interval to register his first competitive goal in a Milan shirt. Reports from Italian media noted that the forward’s low left-footed shot gave the hosts the breakthrough they needed against a stubborn Venezia outfit managed by Giovanni Stroppa.
Saelemaekers and Rabiot Lead Player Ratings
Belgian winger Alexis Saelemaekers earned the highest individual match rating of 7,5 from Il Messaggero for his role in reviving the Rossoneri attack. Saelemaekers provided the assist for the opening goal and later created the late sequence that resulted in Venezia defender Ichem Halhal turning the ball into his own net following pressure from midfielder Ardon Jashari. Meanwhile, midfielder Adrien Rabiot delivered a disciplined performance, earning a 6,5 rating for committing minimal errors in the center of the pitch.
Amorim Maintains Perfect Start
The result leaves Ruben Amorim’s squad on six points from their opening two fixtures of the Italian top-flight campaign, following their opening-day victory against Torino. Venezia manager Giovanni Stroppa acknowledged his team’s positive display during the post-match interviews, stating that while his side showed quality, the overall performance ultimately proved insufficient to take points away from San Siro.
