AC Milan still have plenty to work on and they took a step backwards during their draw with Juventus, a report has claimed.
This morning’s edition of Corriere della Sera (via MilanNews) writes how years go by, coaches change, but Juventus and Milan always end in a draw. This time, however, it’s a different story compared to the two narcoleptic 0-0 draws of last season, at least in the second half.

After a disappointing first half that ended goalless, the match ignited. The 19-year-old Alphadjo Cisse, once again, gave the Rossoneri the lead with a right-footed shot into the corner eight minutes after coming on. Turin brings him luck: his first goal was two weeks ago, against the Granata.
The Diavolo hadn’t scored at the Stadio Olimpico since May 2023 with Olivier Giroud, three and a half years ago. The Bianconeri created more chances and didn’t deserve to lose. though The deserved equaliser for the hosts came in stoppage time with a header from another substitute, Gatti.

It was a fair result, one which showed that Juventus and Milan are two construction sites, with the ‘work in progress’ sign clearly visible. Revolutions are never easy but Ruben Amorim’s side ‘took a step backwards’ in their attacking play.
In place of the disappointing Diego Moreira and Alexis Saelemaekers, Samuel Chukwueze and Cisse changed the game. The Nigerian’s brilliant pass cut across the pitch, and it was finished by right-footed shot into the corner. Perhaps they shouldn’t have been taken out of the XI.
