A Disappointing Draw
Milan ended their match against Pisa with a disappointing 2-2 draw, a result that brings much bitterness. The opportunity to solidify their league lead was ripe, especially against a team considered likely to struggle for survival this season. The initial lead of 1-0, established just 7 minutes in, had given rise to hope, but Coach Massimiliano Allegri‘s team seemed incapable of maintaining that advantage. After scoring, Milan lowered their intensity, paving the way for a controversial episode that reopened the match: a dubious penalty for an alleged handball by Koni De Winter, converted by Cuadrado.
Milan’s Slip-Up
After equalizing, Pisa stunned Milan with a goal from Nzola, taking advantage of a dubious contact involving Matteo Gabbia that infuriated fans. Only through a strike from Zachary Athekame did Milan manage to restore parity. This match highlighted not only individual errors but also questionable game management.
Protests and Discontent
Beyond the pitch, the Curva Sud expressed their discontent, protesting the decision to play the match against Como in Australia. This, coupled with the lack of goals from their forwards, indicates that the club is in a delicate transition phase. With a squad built to aim for high aspirations, Milan cannot afford to drop points against teams perceived as weaker.
In a season where every point counts, the upcoming clash against Roma represents an already crucial test. Milan must find not only victories but also the awareness of how to manage their matches.
