Christian Pulisic's goal three minutes into the game was a nice little illusion because, from the fifteenth minute of the first half, Milan reverted to being a disorganized team, lacking soul and character, that fans had already criticized at the end of last season, as relayed via Milannews.it.
Once again, Milan’s weak right flank is targeted. Although it’s to blame (two of the three goals last night came from that side), it’s just a piece of a tactically unbalanced puzzle. The defensive frailty is not compensated by the attacking output, with Leao completely overshadowed and waiting until the 96th minute to offer one of his rare moments of brilliance to the few fans left at San Siro.
As predicted, Milan was immediately downsized after the large victory on Saturday evening against Venezia, and there’s a derby on Sunday. Losing in another manner might have changed how the Rossoneri fans interpreted the defeat, but through their major representatives, the Curva Sud Milano, they expressed strong discontent at the final whistle of Milan-Liverpool.
A worrying situation for AC Milan.
It must be noted that the start of the season has also been a strong alarm that led the organized fans to send a clear message to the team on Saturday before the Venezia match: “Last call.” In that case, the team took note, but last night they did not, confirming that something continues to go wrong.
There are no innocents in this Milan. The credit is exhausted for everyone, writes La Gazzetta dello Sport in this morning's edition.
