"Massimiliano Allegri's AC Milan secured a huge win over Roma on Sunday night, on the day of the passing of his mentor Giovanni Galeone. As La Gazzetta dello Sport (seen below) report this morning, Galeone has always been proud of his pupil, who has become a fine coach. He must have been proud of him again yesterday, watching on as Allegri's side won with the 'corto muso' again to go level with second place."
"In the second half, having grown under the guidance of the usual excellent Luka Modric, Milan earned the three points with a handful of scoring opportunities. San Siro can celebrate: second place, the imminent return of Rabiot and Pulisic, and the privilege of weeks without Europe open up bright prospects. After beating Napoli at the same stadium they also defeated Roma, another league leader, and did not lose against Juve at the Stadium."
Massimiliano Allegri's AC Milan secured a crucial victory over Roma on the day Giovanni Galeone passed away, honoring the mentor's belief in Allegri's coaching. Milan managed the game with a defensive 'corto muso' approach, ceding possession in the first half to bait Roma and rely on Rafael Leao's counter-attacks. In the second half, Milan grew more assertive and created several scoring chances, aided by Luka Modric's influence and the prospect of Rabiot and Pulisic returning. The win moved Milan level for second place and reinforced team confidence. Roma dominated early possession but squandered opportunities, epitomized by Paulo Dybala's missed penalty.
