MILAN. Incredible comeback victory for Milan, who take 3 very important points by overturning an excellent Verona at San Siro. It ends 3-2 thanks to Gunter’s clumsy own goal, after the Rossoneri comeback signed by Giroud and Kessie. The double advantage of Caprari and Barak in the first half is not enough for the Scala family. This is the fourth consecutive victory for Pioli’s team, which, while waiting for Napoli-Torino, temporarily takes the lead, also embracing Ibrahimovic (on the field in the last quarter of an hour) after returning from injury.
The start of the Scala is excellent and immediately leads to the goal of the advantage after 7 minutes of play: the Rossoneri are hit cold by Caprari’s network, who folds his hands to Tatarusanu with a powerful right from a few steps. Pioli’s team immediately tries to react, but at 21 ‘comes the episode for the Gialloblù doubling: Romagnoli landslide on Kalinic in the middle of the penalty area, the referee assigns the penalty and Barak transforms him into the unexpected and incredible 0- 2 of Verona.
In the second half, Milan tries to change pace by starting to besiege the host half and in the 59th minute shortens the distance: the signature is that of Giroud, who stands out very well on Leao’s cross and rekindles San Siro. At 69 ‘instead it is the Portuguese who touched the equalizer with his usual right-footed shot, finished by centimeters above the crossbar. The Rossoneri take courage and in the 76th minute they draw thanks to the second penalty of the evening awarded by the referee: Castillejo goes down in the area in contact with Faraoni, Kessie makes no mistake from the spot and scores 2-2. Just a couple of minutes passed and an incredible own goal by Gunter, on a cross from Castillejo, sensationally overturns the result giving Milan the final 3-2 goal.
