The devil shows himself not very incisive in front of goal and passes only in the 67th minute. Then check the race smoothly. Pioli first with Inzaghi waiting for Napoli, who challenges Sampdoria on Thursday
It’s up to Brahim Diaz, the smallest and most talented of the company, to get Milan out of trouble. The Spaniard’s third goal of the season, when the shadows of a disappointing draw were lengthening on the San Siro, allows the Rossoneri to grab a victory that, while waiting for Napoli, the first place is worth it, arm in arm with Inter.

But to deserve the showcase, in this complicated and ultimately sweet night for the AC Milan fans, above all Theo Hernandez, which lately seemed to have lost the luster of good times. The Frenchman, who entered the last half hour together with two other owners who remained at the beginning at rest, Saelemaekers and Tomori, triggers the turbo and gives the turning point giving a nice response to his coach. Theo first serves the assist to Diaz and then clears the worries with a formidable diagonal which gives no escape to Maenpaa. The wall of the Venice collapses.

Not an easy night for the Devil. The Milan of the reservists, between emergency and turnover, with only four players on the pitch at the beginning, struggles to find a balance, alternating sudden accelerations with long moments of pause in which improvisation seems to reign. The goal that unlocks the result is also the first shot on the target. Pioli is taking too many risks this time. With a team already battered by injuries, he allows himself the luxury of leaving four players on the bench. To good at correcting the course in time. He wouldn’t have won a game like this last year. The home draws with Verona, Parma, Udinese, Samp and Cagliari have left their mark on the standings. With Venezia it seemed the same story. Instead, you just have to wait for the right moment.

Zanetti’s team defends itself with order as long as Milan doesn’t change pace. The Rossoneri in the first half look for the width, but they never manage to change pace, attacking wearily, without creating big dangers and feeling the lack of a real striker. Ibra and Giroud are in the stands e Rebic wastes Tonali’s long corner on his head, the best chance of the first half. So, a few moments before the break, the goal on the other front touches Peretz who, a meter from Maignan’s goal, spits the ball of the joke badly.

In the second half Milan tries to force the times, they lack precision and clarity. Pioli, after an hour, forced to fish from the bench. Once the turnover failed, he broke through with the owners. And another match is born. Zanetti has to reflect: 8 of the 10 goals conceded by his team so far have arrived in the last half hour. Meanwhile, San Siro sings and Milan commands. But we have to deal with Spalletti who was at Inter and that Milan tried to take before signing Pioli.
