Initially, boredom settled on the lawn of San Siro. Pasty possessions and risk aversion, fear of elimination. The script was only altered when the ball reached the feet of read. The Portuguese got off the hook and took his mark with him, messing up the Roman rear and opening a path for the ascents of The O Hernandez down the left wing.
The goal came on the first clear chance of the match, before half an hour into the game. Romagnoli observed the disorder with which the defense of the Latium and assisted in depth for the race of read. No defender was able to catch the powerful run of the Portuguese, who beat Queen with a low and crossed shot.

But it is one thing to give up the ball and quite another to take a step back. The Milan he became strong in midfield, hoping to break up the game with quick transitions. And indeed, this is what ended up happening.
After a recovery in the spinal cord, Brahim took off down the middle lane unopposed and opened left to readwho nailed his peer with a sharp twist of the waist and assisted giroud in the mouth of the goal
The 3-0 reached the edge of the break in a very similar action. Robbery, fast driving from Malacitano and opening to the left wing. It was Theo Hernandez on this occasion who attended giroudwho pushed the leather at the second post before the passivity of the rival defense and the desperation of Queen.
What happened after the intermission was a formality. the output of Peter, Luis Alberto Y Moor added energy to the attack Latium, who remained innocent at the end. The withdrawal of Immobile due to injury after game time only aggravated the problem.
