AC Milan were leading 2-0 at half-time against Napoli. However, Rudi Garcia's team returned and managed to share the spoils with the Rossoneri. Each returned home with one point.
As reported by La Gazzetta dello Sport in this morning's print edition, Milan were very courageous and aggresive in the first half. In addition to the two goals, they had created many opportunities. However, injuries complicated the situation for Pioli. In fact, Pioli was hurt during the first half (Pellegrino made his debut and replaced him). Then at half-time, Christian Pulisic was replaced by Luka Romero. The American had a muscle problem.
For AC Milan, there are many regrets and this is also added to the strong reaction of Leao and Giroud when Pioli decided to replace them about ten minutes from the end of the match to put Okafor and Jovic on the pitch.
If the Frenchman was the best on the pitch, the same cannot be said of the Portuguese who was once again rather disappointing. With this draw, Milan remains behind Juventus and sees Inter move further away in the standings (3 points). After two defeats in a row against the Bianconeri and PSG, the Devil's reaction was definitely there, but after a first half played so well it's really a shame not to have brought home the three points.
