Despite fielding a starting XI that appeared to be far from his strongest lineup, Milan put in an excellent performance against Torino: they created several chances in the first half even though they were unable to find the breakthrough straight away.
AC Milan's numbers on aggression and shots:
The Gazzetta website highlights a particularly notable statistic regarding the number of shots inside the box in a single half. According to the report (relayed via Milan Press), Milan had not registered at least 10 shots from inside the penalty area without scoring in the first 45 minutes of a Serie A match for more than four years. The last time this happened was on 4 April 2022, when they recorded 13 such shots against Bologna.
The team's very high approach to winning the ball back was also positive under Amorim, with Milan's average ball-recovery height standing at 44.5 metres.
