The AC Milan team of head coach Paulo Fonseca returns home from Bayer Leverkusen with many regrets.
The Rossoneri deserved a draw based on their performance from the 51st minute of the second half onwards, but when you play against teams of this level, you have to account for these things, especially when you give away the first half and 6 minutes into the second half.
This morning, Il Corriere dello Sport published the following lineup:
"Milan against a post"
This obviously referring to Theo Hernandez's crossbar hit, but the reaction after Boniface's slap wasn't enough to turn around a match that sees Milan once again leaving defeated.
Now, the path in the Champions League for the Rossoneri could become complicated, especially if they fail to secure a victory against Club Brugge, which on paper seems almost certain given the strength of both teams.
