Third game in a row without conceding goals and this time also great abundance in the offensive phase: Allegri’s team launches a message of strength to the whole tournament and forces the Friulians to the first defeat of the season
After Juve and waiting for Inter, Udine was the Rossoneri test. Once passed in a time and one minute: Pulisic is the great protagonist with two goals and a penalty not given … but in the middle he led to the doubling of Fofana. Any refereeing discussions reset: it is good to leave the advantage. Allegri, disqualified and sitting in the highest row of the press tribune, observes the lively Milan of the first half even if in some automatisms he does not seem to satisfy him: Max screams and pulls shots at the bench in front of him. The cries do not reach the field but in most of the stadium yes. Udinese is different from expectations, with the debut since the beginning of Ekkelenkamp in midfield. Davis and Bravo confirmed in attack: for Zaniolo only bench and inside in the second half. No surprise in Milan, which entrusts the area to Gimenez and Pulisic.
Pulisic goal
–
At the beginning it is a Milan-IC: Pavlovic defenders are the most active, in the middle everything passes from Modric and in front it is the usual Pulisic to hit. In the initial half hour he had been hit: three fallaces suffered, one with the doctor forced to help him and with the whole Rossoneri bench standing to protest. Rabiot is an excellent director’s assistant, an all -field man even if the assist of the first Rossoneri goal still comes from the left, from the inspected but decisive estupinan. There is no shortage of opportunities in the first 45 ‘in a good intensity: Gimenez is found only in front of Sava after twenty minutes with the Juventus goalkeeper to make wall. If Santi is as usual generous but inconclusive, Bomber Pulisic thinks about it. Beautiful Rossoneri action: Cross by Estupinan, Kristensen’s deviation, rejected by Sava with Christian lurking. ACCOMMODY ACC. Outside, midfielder or second tip, as here, Pulisic always makes the difference. Udinese involves little Terracciano: Defense and midfield Rossoneri compact well. And the door remains new again.
Immediately Fofana
–
A minute of the second half passes and the Rossoneri doubles: Pulisic action, landed in the area by Karlstrom with the ball that ends up on Fofana’s feet. Right shot and Sava surprised on the first post: Milan ahead of two. Another seven minutes and is Tris Rossonero, still with Pulisic. This time the suggestion is by Rabiot, with Christian who mockeys the black and white number 90 on goal. The changes remain in Runjaic: inside Zaniolo, Zanoli, Rui Modesto. Too little to change a game now addressed. Milan also changes with Nkunku, Loftus-Cheek, Ricci, De Winter and Athekame’s debut. By Nkunku, Saelemaekers and Estupinan the latest Rossoneri Chances towards the door, with Sava occupied much more than Terracciano. And Allegri can finally leave the stands.
