In the days following the victory against Fiorentina, AC Milan finds itself at the center of a strong media attack. The narrative being circulated claims that the team was favored and that the match was ‘gifted’ to them, despite the Rossoneri creating many more goal-scoring opportunities than their opponents. With a depleted squad due to numerous injuries, Milan had to approach this match with only five substitutes available, two of whom came from the Primavera team. In this emergency scenario, the team managed to score two goals, proving their determination and playing ability.

One of the most controversial aspects of this match was the penalty awarded to Milan, which some commentators regarded as a gift. However, even the match official, Rocchi, confirmed the validity of the foul that led to the penalty, emphasizing that if such an action had occurred in midfield, there would have been no doubt about sanctioning it. It’s curious to note how, over the years, Milan has faced numerous refereeing injustices, with clear penalties not awarded, making these criticisms all the more exaggerated.

Fiorentina, while scoring a goal, created very little in terms of opportunities, and it would have been unfair for Milan to suffer a loss or a draw in this circumstance. The team showed a strong performance, with scoring opportunities for several players, including Santiago Gimenez and Fikayo Tomori. The concern now turns to the next match against Pisa, where hopes are high to recover some injured players to face the game more effectively.
