As pointed out by Il Corriere della Sera, it's Fonseca's victory. In the span of three days, Milan bounces back, a win in the league and then in the Champions League, improving their standings in both competitions with an encouraging full sweep that restores calm to the team and also to Fonseca, who was on shaky ground after the disastrous flop in Florence.

A confirmation was needed after the thrilling win over Udinese, and it came: the Portuguese coach made the right substitutions.
The Rossoneri won 3-1 against Club Brugge, but the result is deceiving: the Rossoneri suffered too much, certainly more than they should have, despite their undeniable technical edge and having a numerical advantage for over half the match.

Noah Okafor and Samuel Chukwueze, who came on in the second half, once again made the difference.
