MATCH REPORT
AC Milan began the game aggressively as they looked to gain control, with various players getting into promising positions. In the 14th minute, Theo saw his first-time strike fly narrowly over the bar. Pulisic and Reijnders both had attempts after the 15-minute mark, but Caprile was in place to save on both occasions. Cagliari threatened in the final ten minutes of the first half, first through Viola, who was thwarted by a last-ditch intervention by Calabria, and then through Felici, whose right-footed effort was tipped over by Maignan. The teams headed back to the changing room with the score at 0-0.
AC Milan made a strong start to the second half, hitting the bar through Pulisic in the 47th minute. Then came the opening goal, with Morata scoring on the follow-up after Pulisic had struck the post. However, Cagliari responded quickly through Zortea, whose right-footed shot from distance slipped under Maignan (55′). The Rossoneri went back on the attack and were foiled by Caprile, who kept out efforts from Pulisic and then Abraham on the counter. Tammy also diverted the ball over the bar from close range as the team failed to find a winner. It finished 1-1with no shortage of regrets at the full-time whistle.
