What an evening for Mike Maignan ! AC Milan won 3-1 against Real Madrid in the Champions League, and the French goalkeeper shone with seven decisive saves, notably by neutralizing several attempts by Kylian Mbappé. From the start of the match, Maignan showed his solidity by repelling two powerful shots from the former Parisian and a point-blank header from Brahim Diaz in the final moments. This Milanese success marks a strong return to the European scene.
Mbappé, Tchouaméni and Mendy in difficulty
On the Madrid side, the French had a more complicated evening. Kylian Mbappé, muzzled by Maignan, failed to score despite eight attempts. Aurélien Tchouaméni and Ferland Mendy also suffered against the Milanese offensives, with errors which cost Real dearly. Ancelotti and his team will have to react to raise the bar in this competition.
