Barça wants to take advantage of the war between Rafael Leão and Paulo Fonseca

This Saturday, victory was imperative for AC Milan after a brilliant success on Real Madrid’s pitch in midweek in the Champions League. Author of a complicated start to the season in Serie A, the Lombard club needed three points on the Cagliari lawn. Ultimately, nothing went as planned for the Rossoneri. Indeed, the locals opened the scoring after two minutes thanks to Nadir Zortea (2nd, 1-0).

Mute in front of the goal since the end of August and a meeting against Lazio, Rafael Leão equalized a few moments later on a nice service from Tijjani Reijnders (15th, 1-1) before doubling the lead before the break to give the advantage to the Milanese (40th, 1-2). In front, at the break, AC Milan was joined in the 53rd minute on a goal from Gabriele Zappa (53rd, 2-2). And while Tammy Abraham thought he would give his team the victory (69th, 2-3), that devil Zappa equalized again at the very end of the match (89th, 3-3). With this disturbing draw, the Milanese stagnated in 7th place. For its part, Cagliari climbed to 16th place.
