Goal disallowed for Mota, post by Maldini but Milan lead at half-time: 1-0, goal by Reijnders

Milan leads 1-0 over Monza at the end of the first half. Goal disallowed against Monza after seven minutes of play. The goal that gave the red and whites the lead, scored by Dany Mota on Milan Djuric’s pass, was revoked due to a foul committed by Bondo against Theo Hernandez. The Brianza team continued to push and in the 15th minute Maldini came close to scoring the opening goal. In the 27th minute, a great intervention by Maignan saved Milan: cross by Kyriakopoulos, Pedro Pereira inserted himself and headed the ball with a sure shot, but the French goalkeeper made a great intervention. Three minutes later Monza showed up again with a great play by Daniel Maldini who sat down Thiaw in the area, wrong-footed Maignan and hit the post. However, the referee stops everything due to Djuric’s previous offside. However, it was Milan who broke the deadlock. The Rossoneri hit on the counterattack and two minutes before half-time of the match: Chukwueze opens on the right for Pulisic, cross for Morata who heads to save Izzo, but the carom favors Reijnders who beats Turati.
