Events
Match Events
- 0' Here we go! The referee blows the whistle and Genoa CFC launch into their encounter with AC Milan.
- 4' Another substitution for AC Milan to replace Simon Kjaer by Matteo Gabbia on 4 minute.
- 9' Matchday of the Array and both teams know exactly what is at stake tonight.
- 10' Zlatan Ibrahimovic does the damage! The net is bulging and AC Milan surge ahead!
- 15' It looks like no one’s ball. AC Milan is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
- 20' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Genoa CFC that had 429 games and scored 279 goals.
- 25' AC Milan is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
- 30' Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.
- 32' The referee calls foul for Matteo Gabbia. He receives a Yellow card.
- 37' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. AC Milan needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
- 42' It’s high time Stefano Pioli made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
- 46' Alessandro Florenzi has so much to prove this time. He replaces Matteo Gabbia on 46 minute.
- 47' Junior Messias doubles the advantage! 0-2 and this game is slipping away from the opposition.
- 52' Tiemoue Bakayoko has been relatively quiet despite scoring 6 goals in his last 530 appearances.
- 57' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 60' Another change for AC Milan made on 60 minute. Zlatan Ibrahimovic leaves to be changed by Pietro Pellegri.
- 61' GOAL! Junior Messias scores on 61. Assisted by Brahim Diaz
- 62' The whistle greets Flavio Bianchi as he departs to be replaced by Goran Pandev.
- 67' That is a Yellow card for Genoa CFC. Andrea Masiello will be fuming at that decision.
- 72' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Rade Krunic suffering a number of foals already.
- 73' The referee reaches into his pocket. Out comes the Yellow card for Nicolo Rovella.
- 76' AC Milan manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Alexis Saelemaekers is hanging Sandro Tonali on the field on 76 minute.
- 77' The crowd applauds Nicolo Rovella as he leaves the pitch. Manolo Portanova steps in for Genoa CFC.
- 82' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 82 minutes.
- 87' It looks surprising AC Milan does not make any changes. Stefano Sturaro has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- The final score is 0-3.
