This season, AC Milan is a disappointing team. With a more than interesting workforce, the Rossoneri are not inspired in the league and alternate between the good and the less good. Even if the results are more consistent with Sergio Conceicao on the Milanese bench, Rafael Leao's teammates still have this annoying tendency to fall back into their flaws like elimination against Feyenoord in the Champions League this week. To get their ideas to the place, the Milanese had to win this Saturday on the Torino lawn. But Milanese affairs were full of entry with a gag goal collected in the 5th minute.

On a pass too long in the depth of the Torino, Mike Maignan released on his defender Malick Thiaw who could not do anything other than send the ball in his own nets (1-0, 5th). Eager to return to the game, the Lombard club went to find a penalty that Christian Pulisic (34th) finally missed. Faced with dangerous Piedmontese, Milan raised the tone on the return from the locker room and it was ultimately Tijjani Reijnders who signed a goal of the deserved equalization a quarter of the end (1-1, 74th). Finally, symbol of this still bronquebalant team, a lack of concentration of AC Milan allowed the Torino to take over the lead in stride thanks to Gvidas Gineitis (2-1, 77th). With this sixth championship defeat this season, the Ouailles de Conceica is missing the check and remain seventh in the standings. For its part, the Torino climbs in 11th place.
