76′ Now Juve pushes… Cross by Chiesa this time from the right, low and strong: Cage providentially anticipates Milik
73′ AGAIN DOOR! Church sows Musah and crosses to the kiss for the head of Milik: strong but not very angled blow, Sportiello he gets there by going down fast
71′ Goes out Giroudenters in his place Okafor. Change also in Juve with McKennie taking Weah’s place
68′ Giroud he remains on the ground for at least a minute after a clash with Bremer: Pioli had already thought about replacing him
66′ Good opportunity for Milan! Nice Rossoneri counterattack led by Leao and finished by Pulisic: from distance Loftus Cheek sees light and proves the conclusion. The ball hits the post even though Szczesny was in its path.
64′ Sportiello he sacrifices himself by clearing a dangerous low cross but then Thiaw and Milik collapse on him: the Rossoneri goalkeeper remains on the ground but seems capable of recovering
63′ First changes. Pioli removes a bad thing Adli and enter Bennacer. Juventus makes two substitutions: Vlahovic and Kostic out, Milik and Chiesa in
62′ Danger for Milan: there is an opening for Locatelli who fortunately is slow in controlling and is disturbed at the last minute by a Milan defender
58′ Yet another madness of Adli who misses another pass and launches Yildiz’s counterattack: luckily for the Frenchman Loftus Cheek he chases the Turk and takes the ball from his feet, avoiding greater dangers
56′ Great launch of Florenzi for the insertion of Leao who after a melee with Rabiot gets the worst of it: the ball goes to Juventus again
55′ Insidious punishment by Florenzi from Juve’s midfield: the cross is directed towards the far post but Cage it doesn’t get there
50′ DOUBLE WINDOW MIRACLE! Once again Sportiello saves Milan: first he saves on Kostic’s sudden shot and then on Danilo’s rebound from close range he puts his hands incredibly in, also helped by the post… Terrible start to the second half for the Rossoneri: Sportiello as decisive as at the end of the first half
48′ Incredible break by Musah who literally goes all over the field with the ball at his feet but then, at the best moment, completely misses the support for Giroud at the edge of the area
46′ Here we go again! No changes for Allegri and Pioli
END OF THE FIRST HALF – A highly soporific first half of the game ends: no team created opportunities or play, except for unrealistic long-range conclusions or unlucky headers. The only real chance comes at the end for Vlahovic who tries to surprise Sportiello from a free kick, who is very good at putting it in the corner. Milan, for their part, cannot find openings and pass the ball horizontally: every now and then they look for verticalisations but they are more out of exasperationAnd. Musah, as a full-back, makes a naive mistake towards the end and is booked. Leao, Pulisic and Giroud switched off. Zero shots on target for the Rossoneri.
47′ YOU SAVE PORTIELLO! Vlahovic shoots to the post Sportiello: the ball appears between a forest of legs and bounces in front of the goal line but the goalkeeper dives with a flash and puts it in the corner. Here was the biggest opportunity of the match
46′ Super mess of Musah who loses the ball in a bloody area and then is forced to bring down Vlahovic on the edge of the area. Musah warned which was also warned: Genoa will miss
45′ Two minutes added time
43′ Nice vericalization of Florenzi For Leao which however loses its spark, just as it loses it Loftus Cheek when he finds himself in a good position with the ball at his feet from the edge of the area but controls poorly
38′ Weah’s tense cross from the right: the ball flies over the entire Rossoneri area without anyone managing to deflect it
35′ American combination on the right with Musah and Pulisic who exchange the ball: the number 11’s cross into the area is too soft and Loftus Cheekdespite being in a good position, is unable to hit the goal with his head
32′ He replies Florenzi on the other hand: phrasing with Leao which frees the Roman side to shoot. Another conclusion that ends very far from the posts. Still zero real chances in this match, only long range shots
31′ Cambiaso tries again for Juventus: Milan clears from a corner, the ball ends up at the feet of the Bianconeri who tries. Wrong conclusion
29′ Good opportunity for Milan! The corner of Florenzi it is kicked to the near post where Cage he breaks free and tries the twist: an attempt which however ends up wide… Milan, little by little, is growing
27′ Thrill for a horizontal passage of Adli: Vlahovic doesn’t get there and the ball reaches Musah who dribbles an opponent and then tries the shot. Shot, deflected, not too far from the goal. On the right, the American is also touched hard and remains on the ground
25′ Good counterattack by Milan, born from an excellent recovery by Thiaw: triggers Pulisic which leans on Leao, who is in too much of a hurry and tries a right foot from outside. Conclusion wide but some timid offensive signals from the Rossoneri
22′ Cambiaso tries and is free to receive on the right edge of the penalty area, with the Rossoneri defense lined up: his conclusion is strangled and goes off on the advertising boards behind the goal defended by Sportiello
21′ Very closed spaces: players pass the ball horizontally without finding any gaps. Florenzi try a long ball to get past the defense for Giroud but the ball is out of size
18′ Try to light up and turn on Milan Leao: the Portuguese targets Gatti but the ball extends too far and it ends up on the back before the number 10 can cross
15′ Juve starts again with Gatti who finds space to reach almost the edge of the area and tries the shot: the shot ends up very high but too much of the field is left to the Juventus defender
13′ The Milan tries to make himself seen in Juve’s half of the field, after a somewhat muted start. There are very few spaces
8′ The first shot on goal belongs to Juventus. With stubbornness Vlahovic manages to get rid of Cage and try to surprise Sportiello with a shot just inside the area but from a tight angle: the Rossoneri goalkeeper controls the central conclusion
6′ Painful head to head between Cage and Gatti: the Rossoneri got the worst of it and was treated on the pitch. However, everything should be ok for the Milan centre-back
5′ Not a great start pace-wise. First corner of the match for Juventus: short solution, closes Leao always in the corner. From the second lap from the flag Milan sweeps away
1′ The game begins!
