the Milan AC, fragile leader

by time news

The Milanese club carried out a very bad operation this Sunday by conceding the draw (0-0) on the ground of Torino.

No goal scored and two small points taken in two matches: AC Milan still displayed its impotence at Torino (0-0) on Sunday during the 32nd day, at the end of a disappointing week which jeopardizes its first place in Serie A. The Rossoneri, already hooked at home by Bologna (0-0) last Monday, are only two points ahead of Inter Milan (2nd), potentially new leader by virtue of their late match to be played at the end of April against this same team from Bologna. Naples (3rd), beaten a little earlier at home by Fiorentina (2-3), is also two points behind the leader and Juve (4th), if it claims to no longer believe in the scudetto, is still mathematically in the race, at six lengths with six days to go.

If the Milan defense remains intractable (no goals conceded in the last five matches), the Rossoneri attack has still shown its current limits with few clear chances despite a lot of activity. Without Zlatan Ibrahimovic, package, Olivier Giroud again led the attack but without finding the fault, not helped by many technical errors from his partners and bad passes in the last thirty meters. The Torino goalkeeper Etrit Berisha did not miss the rare interventions to be made, on strikes from Davide Calabria (24th) and Sandro Tonali (74th). And Rafael Leao did not find the frame on his few breakthroughs. The counter strategy almost worked for the Garnets but Samuele Ricci did not fit, in a good position (28th), no more than Andrea Belotti (75th). And Mike Maignan, vigilant, took out a decisive save on a strike from Mergim Vojvoda spinning towards his skylight (50th).
