Events
Match Events
- 0' The game is set. AC Milan kicks off things out of here…
- 4' Brilliant from the ! Zlatan Ibrahimovic makes it 0-1 with a superb finish on 4.
- 9' 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 Manolo Gabbiadini suffering a number of foals already.
- 14' UC Sampdoria are keeping things exceptionally tight at the back. It will take something special to break them down.
- 19' The 33-year-old Omar Colley has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.
- 24' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Fabio Quagliarella made 458 appearances and scored 59 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 29' The midfield battle is intense right now. Both UC Sampdoria and AC Milan are fighting for every inch of the pitch.
- 34' Over 34 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
- 36' The referee calls foul for Bartosz Bereszynski. He receives a Yellow card.
- 41' UC Sampdoria are enjoying more possession but struggling to find a way through a disciplined AC Milan backline.
- 45' That is a Yellow card for AC Milan. Ante Rebic will be fuming at that decision.
- 46' Rafael Leao is replacing Ante Rebic for the AC Milan side.
- 51' The energy levels are beginning to show. Claudio Ranieri might look to freshen things up shortly.
- 52' The Turkey Hakan Calhanoglu breaks the deadlock on 52 minutes. 0-2!
- 57' We are waiting for someone to take the initiative. Who will be the first to commit to attack?
- 58' Goal! Zlatan Ibrahimovic scores his 112 goal in 286 matches.
- 62' AC Milan make a change. Davide Calabria trudges off to be replaced by Samu Castillejo on 62 minutes.
- 67' Spectators do not have much to choose from both teams. The sides had several scoring chances but they still need a bit more than just a sight of a goal.
- 72' AC Milan is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
- 73' Andrea Bertolacci gets the nod from UC Sampdoria. He replaces Ronaldo Vieira and will look to change the dynamic.
- 74' A tactical swap from UC Sampdoria — Manolo Gabbiadini on, Fabio Quagliarella off on 74 minutes.
- 79' The crowd applauds Zlatan Ibrahimovic as he leaves the pitch. Lucas Paqueta steps in for AC Milan.
- 84' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
- 87' Goal! Kristoffer Askildsen scores his 2 goal in 458 matches.
- Time to leave. No sensation happened. Another win for AC Milan players.
