Milan lost both the first and second leg to Napoli. |
The fourth defeat in the last six rounds has left AC Milan in deep crisis. The "Rossoneri" are stuck in 9th place with 47 points, 9 points behind the top 4, while there are only 8 rounds left in the season. With their current form, the San Siro team is at risk of missing out on all European Cup tournaments next season.
During their away match at Diego Armando Maradona Stadium, Milan continued to show their weakness in defense. In the 2nd minute, 3 players in red and black stripes let Matteo Politano freely break through, before swinging his foot to send the ball into the near corner, defeating goalkeeper Mike Maignan.
In the 19th minute, Romelu Lukaku comfortably received the ball in the penalty area and then finished to double the gap for the home team.
Right at the beginning of the second half, the away team had a good chance to shorten the score, after Theo Hernandez earned a penalty. However, Santiago Tomas Gimenez could not beat the home team's goalkeeper.
A late effort only helped Milan score a goal in the 84th minute, after Luka Jovic tapped in from close range. That was not enough to help coach Sergio Conceicao's team avoid defeat.
As for Napoli, the Naples team won both the first and second leg of Serie A against Milan for the first time in 8 years, thereby continuing to chase Inter in the championship race. The gap between the two championship candidates is now only 3 points.
