Alvaro Morata has already taken over Milan. This morning, Corriere della Sera writes that the Spaniard needed just half an hour to turn around a cursed match like the one against Torino, scoring the goal of hope and then leading his teammates to a draw.
The impact of the former Juventus and Atletico Madrid player was undoubtedly one of the few positive notes of the Milanese evening, in which unfortunately several things did not work out.
Besides the performance well below expectations of some players, even some initial choices by Paulo Fonseca were not convincing at all, such as the decision to field Saelemaekers as the left-back.
The central midfield duo also did not perform well: Bennacer is no longer the same as he was before the injury, while Loftus-Cheek is more comfortable as an attacking midfielder. Lastly, Jovic as the starting forward did not convince either, confirming once again that without a center forward alongside him, he is completely useless.
In the second half, fortunately, Morata came on, and Milan's game changed: first, the Spaniard scored the temporary 1-2 goal, and then he led his teammates towards the equalizer, which came in the final minutes thanks to a goal from Okafor, who also came on in the second half. After the match, the Spaniard also presented himself in front of the microphones and spoke words of a true leader: "We need to take a step forward mentally. We need to struggle, work, commit more fouls, become a tougher team. Starting tomorrow, we will all work together to achieve this.”
