The Croatian wall collapses with AC Milan's Olivier Giroud's penalty, Alexis Saelemaekers' second goal in the Champions League and Tommaso Pobega's powerful shot from inside the box: a convincing victory for Milan, as per Tuttosport in today's edition (via MilanPress.it). The headline we read is: "Europe is on fire"
A victory to break the ice also in Europe, after the draw at the debut in Salzburg. Three points to start looking at the others from above and better face the next double confrontation with Chelsea.
AC Milan beat Dinamo Zagreb 3-1 at the San Siro with a great style. It is true that the Croatians relied on counter-attacks and a low depth in defence to block the attack. But, they could not contain Rafael Leao who earned the first penalty, which opened the game and unlocked it. That forced the Croatian team to look for more attacking scenarios, which made them more vulnerable at the back.
